Answer: 307.11\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The height of hill is 120 ft and the angle of elevation is 23^{\circ}

Suppose the length of the road is x

From the figure, we can write

\Rightarrow \sin 23^{\circ}=\dfrac{120}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{120}{\sin 23^{\circ}}\\\\\Rightarrow x=307.11\ ft

Thus, the length of the road is 307.11\ ft

What is the volume of the composite figure? Explain your work. A complete answer should include how you broke up the figure, whi
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The composite figure consists of a square prism and a trapezoidal prism. By adding the volume of each, we obtain the volume of the composite figure.

The volume of the square prism is given by V=s^2\cdot h, where s is the base length and h is the height. Substituting given values, we have: V=14^2\cdot 30=196\cdot 30=5,880\:\mathrm{mm^3}

The volume of a trapezoidal prism is given by V=\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot l\cdot h, where b_1 and b_2 are bases of the trapezoid, l is the length of the height of the trapezoid and h is the height. This may look very confusing, but to break it down, we're finding the area of the trapezoid (base) and multiplying it by the height. The area of a trapezoid is given by the average of the bases (\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}) multiplied by the trapezoid's height (l).

Substituting given values, we get:

V=\frac{14+24}{2}\cdot (30-14)\cdot 30,\\V=19\cdot 16\cdot 30=9,120\:\mathrm{mm^3}}

Therefore, the total volume of the composite figure is 5,880+9,120=\boxed{15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}} (ah, perfect)

Alternatively, we can break the figure into a larger square prism and a triangular prism to verify the same answer:

V=30^2\cdot 14+\frac{1}{2}\cdot10\cdot 16\cdot 30=\boxed{15,000\:\mathrm{mm^3}}\checkmark

In a group of 50 people 28% of them has flue shots done. What is the probability to choose from this group 15 people that didn't
aliina [53]

Answer:

0.0025 = 0.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find how many people don't have flue shots.

28% of 50 is equal to 0.28 * 50 = 14 people.

If 14 people have flue shots, we have 50 - 14 = 36 people that don't have flue shots.

Now, to solve this problem, the probability will be the cases where  we have a group of people that don't have flue shots (that is, a combination of 36 choose 15) over the total cases (combination of 50 choose 15):

C(36,15) / C(50,15) = (36!/15!*21!) / (50!/15!*35!) = 0.0025 = 0.25%

There are 4 portable classrooms at Glynn High School. Four teachers will be assigned to the rooms. In how many ways can these as
Crank

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first classroom, there are 4 possibilities of teachers to be assigned.

In the second classroom, 1 teacher has already been assigned, so there are 3 possibilities.

In the third classroom, 2 teachers have already been assigned, so there are only 2 possibilities.

Finally, there is only 1 possible teacher for the fourth classroom, since 3 teachers have already been assigned to other classrooms.

We can find the total number of possibilities using the product rule.

N = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 24

NEED HELP ITS A TEST!
jeka94

Answer:

X = -2 - y/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to know the current equation, for that:

Notice that when Y = 0, X = 2.

When Y = 6, X = 0

Therefore the equation is X = 2-\frac{y}{3}

To move that to the left of the X axis (negative direction) you just have to reduce the X number:

x=-2 - \frac{y}{3}
