The pitch of the roof is given by the ratio of the rise to the run of the roof, which is the slope of the rafter

$The \ pitch \ of \ the \ roof \ is \ \mathbf {\dfrac{6}{13}}$

Please find attached the simple <u>diagram of the house</u> with all measurements labeled

The reason the above value for the pitch and the diagram are correct are as follows:

The given parameters are;

Width of the section of the house on which the gable of the roof is to be placed = 50 feet

Length of the over hang on the sides of the roof = 1 foot each

Total span of the roof = 52 feet

Horizontal length of each rafter, the run = 26 feet

The height of the ridge above the top of the frame, the rise = 12 feet

Required:

To find the pitch of the roof

To draw a diagram of the house showing measurements

Solution:

$Pitch = \dfrac{Rise}{Run}$

$Pitch \ (slope) \ of \ roof = \dfrac{12}{26} =\dfrac{6}{13}$

Please find attached the <u>diagram</u> of the house showing the measurements for the roof parameters and the section of the house where the gable roof is to be placed

Solve the equation by graphing. If exact roots cannot be found, state the consecutive integers between which the roots are locat

eimsori [14]

Answer:

There are NO real roots for this equation. The only roots have imaginary parts and therefore cannot be represented on the real x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice that the expression on the left of the equation is a quadratic with leading term $2x^2$ , which means that its graph is that of a parabola with branches going up.

Therefore, there can be three different situations:

1) if its vertex is ON the x axis, there would be one unique real solution (root) to the equation.

2) if its vertex is below the x-axis, the parabola's branches are forced to cross it at two locations, giving then two real solutions (roots) to the equation.

3) if its vertex is above the x-axis, it will have NO real solutions (roots) but only non-real ones.

So we proceed to examine the vertex's location, which is also a great way to decide on which set of points to use in order to plot its graph efficiently.

We recall that the x-position of the vertex for a quadratic function of the form $f(x)=ax^2+bx+c$ is given by the expression:

$x_v=\frac{-b}{2a}$

Since in our case $a=2$ and $b=-3$ , we get that the x-position of the vertex is:

$x_v=\frac{-b}{2a}\\x_v=\frac{-(-3)}{2(2)}\\x_v=\frac{3}{4}$

Now we can find the y-value of the vertex by evaluating this quadratic expression for x = 3/4:

$y_v=f(\frac{3}{4})=2( \frac{3}{4})^2-3(\frac{3}{4})+4\\f(\frac{3}{4})=2( \frac{9}{16})-\frac{9}{4}+4\\f(\frac{3}{4})=\frac{9}{8}-\frac{9}{4}+4\\f(\frac{3}{4})=\frac{9}{8}-\frac{18}{8}+\frac{32}{8}\\f(\frac{3}{4})=\frac{23}{8}$

This is a positive value for y, therefore we are in the situation where there is NO x-axis crossing of the parabola's graph, and therefore no real roots.

We can though estimate a few more points of the parabola's graph in order to complete the graph as requested in the problem. For such we select a couple of x-values to the right of the vertex, and a couple to the right so we can draw the branches. For example: x = 1, and x = 2 to the right; and x = 0 and x = -1 to the left of the vertex:

$f(-1) = 2(-1)^2-3(-1)+4= 2+3+4=9\\f(0)=2(0)^2-3(0)+4=0+0+4=4\\f(1)=2(1)^2-3(-1)+4=2-3+4=3\\f(2)=2(2)^2-3(2)+4=8-6+4=6$

A company manufactures televisions. The average weight of the televisions is 5 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.1 pound. As

Semenov [28]

Answer:

$0.2564\text{ pounds}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The 90th percentile of a normally distributed curve occurs at 1.282 standard deviations. Similarly, the 10th percentile of a normally distributed curve occurs at -1.282 standard deviations.

To find the $X$ percentile for the television weights, use the formula:

$X=\mu +k\sigma$ , where $\mu$ is the average of the set, $k$ is some constant relevant to the percentile you're finding, and $\sigma$ is one standard deviation.

As I mentioned previously, 90th percentile occurs at 1.282 standard deviations. The average of the set and one standard deviation is already given. Substitute $\mu=5$ , $k=1.282$ , and $\sigma=0.1$ :
