Chee is flying a kite, holding her hands a distance of 3.25 feet above the ground and

Mathematics

The height of the kite above the ground is 58.68 ft

Let x be the height of the kite above Chee's hand.

The height of the kite above Chee's hand, the string and the horizontal distance between Chee and the kite form a right angled triangle with hypotenuse side, the length of the string and opposite side the height of the kite above Chee's hand.

Since we have the angle of elevation from her hand to the kite is 29°, and the length of the string is 100 ft.

From trigonometric ratios, we have

tan29° = x/100

So, x = 100tan29°

x = 100 × 0.5543

x = 55.43 ft.

Since Chee's hand is y = 3.25 ft above the ground, the height of the kite above the ground, L = x + y

= 55.43 ft + 3.25 ft

= 58.68 ft to the nearest hundredth of a foot

So, the height of the kite above the ground is 58.68 ft

Answer:

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm very sorry if this is wrong but A would make the most sense. the formula y=mx+b. m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept so A is the most reasonable.

If this helped you I would appreciate it if you marked me Brainliest. Thank you and have a nice day!

josh bought followers for nancy. he spent a total of $14.85 and bought 13 flowers. if he knows lilies cost $1.25 and tulips cost
Serjik [45]

Answer:

x = lillies

y = tulips

x + y = 13

1.25x + .90y = 14.85

-1.25x - 1.25y = -16.25

1.25x + .90y = 14.85

-0.35y = -1.40

y = 4 tulips

x + 4 = 13

x = 9 lillies

(9 lillies, 4 tulips)

National data indicates that​ 35% of households own a desktop computer. In a random sample of 570​ households, 40% owned a deskt
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Yes, this provide enough evidence to show a difference in the proportion of households that own a​ desktop.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that National data indicates that​ 35% of households own a desktop computer.

In a random sample of 570​ households, 40% owned a desktop computer.

<em><u>Let p = population proportion of households who own a desktop computer</u></em>

SO, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p = 25%   {means that 35% of households own a desktop computer}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p \neq 25%   {means that % of households who own a desktop computer is different from 35%}

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>One-sample z proportion</u> <u>statistics</u>;

                                  T.S.  = \frac{\hat p-p}{{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = sample proportion of 570​ households who owned a desktop computer = 40%

            n = sample of households = 570

So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{0.40-0.35}{{\sqrt{\frac{0.40(1-0.40)}{570} } } } }

                               =  2.437

<em>Since, in the question we are not given with the level of significance at which to test out hypothesis so we assume it to be 5%. Now at 5% significance level, the z table gives critical values of -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test. Since our test statistics doesn't lies within the range of critical values of z so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.</em>

Therefore, we conclude that % of households who own a desktop computer is different from 35%.

The length of a rectangular garden is 17 feet longer than its width. If the area of the garden is 234 square feet, what are the
kifflom [539]

Answer:

The garden is 9 feet wide and 26 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

L = W+17

area = LW = 234

(W+17)W = 234

W²+17W-234 = 0

Quadratic formula

W = [-17 ± √(17² – 4·1(-234))] / [2·1]

 = [-17 ± √1225] / 2

 = [-17 ± 35] /2

 = -26, 9

-26 is an extraneous solution

W = 9

L = W+17 = 26

The garden is 9 feet wide and 26 feet long.
