Why would engineers and architects need to find angles in a polygon

agasfer [191]

As a engineer who was mechanical then electrical most buildings, schematics,etc require some form of calculation for some shapes seeing that those shapes are what make up the world. Say for example you need to make something like a mother board pro house knowing it's shape and angle helps make a more accurate structure during the blue printing and build phase. No one just goes in and wings it you need to determine angles for things you don't know that the point of it.

One person wants to get a 95% z-confidence interval with a margin of error of at most 15 based on a population standard deviatio

Bess [88]

Answer:

$n=(\frac{1.96(60)}{15})^2 =61.46 \approx 62$

So the answer for this case would be n=62 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean

$\sigma=60$ represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size (variable of interest)

Confidence =95% or 0.95

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And on this case we have that ME =15, and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (1) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (2)

The critical value for 95% of confidence interval is provided, $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$ , replacing into formula (2) we got:

$n=(\frac{1.96(60)}{15})^2 =61.46 \approx 62$

So the answer for this case would be n=62 rounded up to the nearest integer

Which is the correct word form of 8.16

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

The <u>correct word form of 8.16</u> is b. eight and sixteen hundredths

Since the number is 8.16, we have 8.16 = 8 + 0.16 = 8 + 16/100

Since we have 8 in the units place, it is pronounced eight.

Also, we have our decimal part 0.16 = 16/100 which is pronounced as sixteen hundredths.

So, combining both we have eight and sixteen hundredths.

So, the <u>correct word form of 8.16</u> is b. eight and sixteen hundredths

Can someone please help with this i don’t know how to do it 85points

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the area by cutting it across in the middle into a trapezoid and a rectangle.

The trapezoid will have:

height = 10-4 = 6ft

top = 9-6 = 3ft

bottom = 8ft

So its area = 1/2*(3+8)*6 = 33 ft^2

The rectangle will have:

length = 10ft

width = 6ft

So its area = 10*6 = 60 ft^2

Total area = 60+33 = 93 ft^2
