Given Angle = 76° (The Angle in Pic is incorrect kindly ignore)

Hypotenuse= 28

Assuming Adjacent Side = X

<h3><u>To </u><u>Find</u></h3>

Base of ladder

So,

Cos 76 =\frac {\bold{adjacent  \: side}}{\bold{hypotenuse}}

0.2419 =  \frac{x}{28}

x =  0.2419 \times 28 \\  \\ x = 6.7732

Rounding off to the nearest tenth= 6.8ft

<h3>Hope This Helps</h3>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cos \ 76 =\dfrac{adjacent \ side}{hypotenuse}\\\\0.2419=\dfrac{x}{28}\\\\\\0.2419*28=x\\\\\\x=6.7732

x =6.8 ft

1. A population with a normal distribution has a mean of 104 and standard deviation 15. A sample of 30 items is taken from that
Pie

Answer:

0.3575

Step-by-step explanation:

A population with a normal distribution has a mean of 104 and a standard deviation of 15. A sample of 30 items is taken from that population. (a) (4 points) What is the probability of the sample mean is not less than 103?

The probability of the sample mean is not less than 103 means the sample mean is equal to 103

We solve using the z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ/√n

where

x is the raw score = 103

μ is the population mean = 104

σ is the population standard deviation = 15

n is the random number of sample = 30

z = 103 - 104/15/√30

z = -1/2.7386127875

z = -0.36515

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x≤ 103) = 0.3575

Therefore, the probability of the sample mean is not less than 103 is 0.3575

14.4 A Book and a Cake A book costs $45. Sales tax on the book is 7%. Write two different expressions that represent the final c
snow_tiger [21]

Answer: 1. $45*1.07 | $45(1.07) 2. (0.85)*32 represent the final price of the cake in dollars because (0.85) is the 15% off in decimals.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 if you multiply 45 by 1.07 it will be 48.15 and that's the final cost of the book, same with $45(1.07) is just another way to represent the multiplication.

2 As I said the 0.85 represent the 15% off, and when you multiply it will be less.

If a salesperson sells 3/4 of an acre for $80,000, what was the price per square foot rounded to two decimal spaces?
Julli [10]
Now, recalling that for 1 yard, there are 3 feet, therefore  \bf \begin{array}{ll}&#10;yards&feet\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;1yd&3ft\\&#10;(1yd)^2&(3ft)^2\\&#10;yd^2&3^2ft^2\\&#10;&9ft^2&#10;\end{array}

and keeping in mind that, there are 4840 yd² in 1 acre, then 

\bf \cfrac{\quad \frac{3}{4}~\underline{acre}\quad }{80000~\$}\cdot \cfrac{4840~\underline{yd^2}}{\underline{acre}}\cdot \cfrac{9~ft^2}{\underline{yd^2}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}\cdot4840\cdot  9~ft^2}{80000~\$}\implies \cfrac{\frac{130680}{4}}{80000}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{\frac{130680}{4}}{\frac{80000}{1}}\implies \cfrac{130680}{4}\cdot \cfrac{1}{80000}\implies \cfrac{3267}{8000}~\frac{ft^2}{\$}~\approx~ 0.408375 ~\frac{ft^2}{\$}
