A brace for a shelf has the shape of a right triangle. Its hypotenuse is 10 inches long and the two legs are equal in length. How long are the legs of the triangle?

Answers

Answer 1
This is a classic example of a 45-45-90 triangle: it's a right triangle (one angle of 90) & two other sides of the same length, which means two angles of the same length (and 45 is the only number that will work). With a 45-45-90 triangle, the lengths of the legs are easy to determine:
45-45-90
1-1-sqrt2
Where the hypotenuse corresponds to sqrt2.
Now, your hypotenuse is 10.
To figure out what each leg is, divide 10/sqrt2 (because sqrt2/sqrt2 = 1, which is a leg length in the explanation above).
Problem: you can't divide by radicals. So, we'll have to rationalize the denominator:
(10•sqrt2)/(sqrt2•sqrt2)
This can be rewritten:
10sqrt2/sqrt(2•2)
=10sqrt2/sqrt4
=10sqrt2/2
=5sqrt2 Hope this helps!!

Answers

2cos²x+cos x-1=0

t=[-1⁺₋√(-1+8)]/2=(-1⁺₋3)/4
We have two possible set solutions:
First set solutions.
t₁=(-1-3)/2=-4/4=-1   
cos x=-1  ⇒x=cos⁻¹ (-1)=π +2kπ    or     180º+360ºk    (k=(...-2,-1,0,1,2...)

Second set solutions:
t₂=(-1+3)/4=2/4=1/2

cos x=1/2  ⇒ x=cos⁻¹ 1/2=π/3+2kπ   U   5π/3+ 2kπ   or
60º+360ºK  U 300º+360ºK        (k=...-2,-1,0,1,2,...)

solutions: first set solutions U second set solutions:

Answer in radians : π +2kπ U π/3+2kπ U 5π/3+ 2kπ   (k=...-1,0,1,...)
Answer is degrees: 180º+360ºk U 60º+360ºK  U 300º+360ºK        (k=...-2,-1,0,1,2,...)

The primary solutions in degrees are x = 60°, 180°, and 300°.

We need to solve the equation 2cos²(x) + cos(x) - 1 = 0 and find the degree solutions.

Let's solve this step-by-step:

First, let u = cos(x). The equation becomes 2u² + u - 1 = 0.This is a quadratic equation in u. Solve it using the quadratic formula: u = [tex]\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{ 2a}[/tex]Here, a = 2, b = 1, and c = -1. Substitute these values into the quadratic formula:
[tex]u = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1^2 - 4(2)(-1)}}{ (2 * 2)}[/tex]
u = [-1 ± √(1 + 8)] / 4
u = [-1 ± √9] / 4
u = [-1 ± 3] / 4This gives us two solutions: u = 1/2 and u = -1.Recall u = cos(x):
cos(x) = 1/2 leads to x = 60° and x = 300°
cos(x) = -1 leads to x = 180°Thus, the solutions to the equation 2cos²(x) + cos(x) - 1 = 0 in degrees are x = 60°, 180°, and 300°.

A guy walks into the store and steals $100 bill from the register without the owner’s knowledge. He comes back 5 minutes later and buys $70 worth of goods with the $100 bill. The owner gives him back $30 in change. How much money did the owner lose?

Answers

the answer is $100
first the guy steals $100 from the owner. Therefore that $100 is a direct loss for the owner. 
the same guy comes and pays $100 for goods worth $70. and the balance is paid back to the guy. 
So the owner gets 100 and pays back 30 and gives goods worth 70. Therefore that transaction is cancelled as the amounts have been paid and no net effect with that transaction . the owner gets 70 for the goods he sold so that transaction wont lose his money. the fact that the guy paid for the bill with the money he stole isn't relevant here as the transaction has been completed
so the only loss for the owner is the $100 the guy stole at first 
answer is $100

Answer:

The  money that owner loses is:

                          $ 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the guy walks into the store  and steals $100 bill from the register without the owner’s knowledge.

Again he comes back with the bill and buys $70 worth of goods with the $100 bill. The owner gives him back $30 in change.

This means that the loss that the owner gets at the starting is recovered as the bill is returned back to the owner and the only loss that is remaining is the cost of the goods that he buy (i.e. $ 70 ) and cost that owner returned him (i.e. $ 30)

             Hence, the total loss of the owner is:

             $ 70+$ 30=$ 100

A telemarketer will make 25 calls in one hour. the probability of making a sale on any given call is .09.

Then the probability that he will make at least one sale during the hour will be given as,

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - P(x = 1)

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - ²⁵C₁ (0.09)¹ (1 - 0.09)²⁴

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - 25 x 0.09 x 0.10399

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - 0.233978

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.766

Erin is buying floor tile to put in a room that is 10 ft. by 15 ft. She has chosen tiles that are 18 in by 18 in. Assuming that she needs to buy 10% extra to be safe, how many tiles will she need to buy?

Answers

18 inches first of all is 1.5 feet, since 12 inches is 1 feet,and 6 inches is 0.5 feet

so lets see what area we need. 10 ft by 15 ft = 150 ft^2
now out tile area is 1.5ft by 1.5 ft = 2.25 ft^2
150/2.25 =200/3=66+2/3, we need atleast 66 and 2/3rd of a tile, we must by atleast 10% to be extra safe so
10% of 66+2/3 is 6.6 + 2/30, so we will by 66+2/3 + 6.6+2/30 =73.3333333333, so we will by a total of 73 tiles.


Erin should buy 74 tiles to be safe.

Since Erin is buying floor tile to put in a room that is 10 ft. by 15 ft., and she has chosen tiles that are 18 in by 18 in., assuming that she needs to buy 10% extra to be safe, to determine how many tiles will she need to buy the following calculation must be performed:

The equality between feet and inches must be established, then the area of the room must be calculated, and then the area of each tile. Then, the area of the room must be divided by the area of the tile to know how many should be used.

1 foot = 12 inches  1.1 x ((10 x 12) x (15 x 12)) / (18 x 18) = X 1.1 x (120 x 180) / 324 = X 1.1 x 21,600 / 324 = X 23,760 / 324 = X 73.33 = X

Therefore, Erin should buy 74 tiles to be safe.

(a) Do the above data establish the hypothesis that a lawyer’s salary is related to his height? Use the 5 percent level of significance.
(b) What was the null hypothesis in part (a)?

Answers

Final answer:

The analysis aims to see if there's a correlation between lawyers' height and salary, using statistical tests to determine if the null hypothesis—which states there is no relationship—should be rejected at a 5% significance level.

Explanation:

The purpose of this analysis is to discover whether there is a statistical relationship between the height of male lawyers and their salary five years after graduating from law school. To determine this, we can utilize statistical methods such as correlation and regression analysis. However, it should be noted that merely finding a correlation does not establish causation, and any findings would require a more robust analysis to conclude that height is a determinant factor in salary.

In part (a), if we were to perform the statistical test, we would calculate the correlation coefficient to establish the strength and direction of the relationship between height and salary. If the p-value from this test is less than the level of significance (5%), the null hypothesis would be rejected, suggesting that there is a relationship between height and salary.

The null hypothesis in part (a) states there is no relationship between the height of lawyers and their salary. Specifically, it asserts that any observed association in the sample data results from random variation and does not reflect the population of corporate lawyers.

Joe Jay purchased a new colonial home for $260,000, putting down 20%. He decided to use Loyal Bank for his mortgage. They were offering a 6½% for a 25-year mortgage. The principal after the first payment had a balance outstanding of:

Answers

Final answer:

The outstanding balance on Joe Jay's mortgage after the first payment cannot be determined without the monthly payment amount. Typically the initial payments are mainly applied to interest, so the principal would remain close to the financed amount of $208,000.

Explanation:

Joe Jay made a 20% down payment on a $260,000 home, which equals $52,000 ($260,000 * 0.20). The remaining balance he would need to finance through a mortgage would be $260,000 - $52,000 = $208,000. To find out the balance outstanding after the first payment, we would typically use an amortization formula or a financial calculator, considering the 6.5% annual interest rate and the 25-year term of the mortgage. Unfortunately, without additional information such as the monthly payment amount, we cannot calculate the exact principal balance outstanding after the first payment. Generally, the first few payments in an amortization schedule primarily cover interest, so the principal would not change much from the initial $208,000.

Final answer:

The principal after the first payment has an outstanding balance of $206,830.79.

Explanation:

To find the principal after the first payment, we need to calculate the amount of the loan that remains after the down payment and the first payment.

Step 1: Calculate the down payment amount by multiplying the purchase price by the down payment percentage: $260,000 * 0.20 = $52,000.

Step 2: Calculate the loan amount by subtracting the down payment from the purchase price: $260,000 - $52,000 = $208,000.

Step 3: Calculate the monthly interest rate by dividing the annual interest rate by 12: 6.5% / 12 = 0.00542.

Step 4: Calculate the principal after the first payment by subtracting the monthly payment from the remaining loan balance: $208,000 - $1,169.21 = $206,830.79.

Therefore, the outstanding balance after the first payment is $206,830.79.

(b) What ticket price(rounded to nearest cent) maximizes the revenue
from ticket sales?
(c) What ticket price will lead to no revenue?

Answers

Final answer:

Determine the ticket price that leads to zero revenue by setting the equation equal to zero and solving for the variable which is $17.50

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need to express the revenue from ticket sales as a function of the number of $1.00 price increases. We can use the formula R = (50,000 - 3,500x) * (21 + x), where R represents the daily revenue and x represents the number of price increases.

N= Number of visitors and $P = price $R = Revenue

N = 50,000 - (P-15)*2500

R = N*P = 50,000P -2,500P^2 + 15*2500P

R = 87,500P -2,500P^2

dR/dP = 87,500 - 5000P = 0 for max

P = $17.50 for max revenue

Next, we can find the ticket price that maximizes the revenue by finding the vertex of the quadratic equation. The ticket price that leads to no revenue can be found by setting the daily revenue equal to zero and solving for x.

Let x = 2.8 repeating

Multiply both sides of the equation by 10 to get a whole number.

10 x = 28.8 repeating

Next, we subtract the original equation from the multiplied equation to eliminate the repeating part:

10 x - x = 28.8 repeating - 2.8 repeating
