An 18ft ladder leans against a house, reaching a point 14ft above the ground. How far is the foot of the ladder from the bottom of the house

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: a^2+b^2=c^2

Step-by-step explanation: (18^2=14^2+c^2)=324=196+c^2

324-196=128 and the square root of 128 is 8 radical 2 or in decimal form 11.31

Answer 2

Answer:

11.3137085 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The length (l) of the ladder is 18ft

The height (h) of the ladder from the ground is 14 ft

The distance (x) of the foot of the ladder to the bottom of the house is:

Applying the Pythagorean theorem:

x² = l² - h²

x = [tex]\sqrt{l^2 - h^2}[/tex]

x = [tex]\sqrt{18^2 - 14^2}[/tex] = 11.3137085 ft

B) f(x)=2(x-7)^2-3
C) f(x)= -(x-5)^2+5
D) f(x)= -2(x-5)^2+5

Answers

Answer:

B) [tex]f(x)=2(x-7)^2-3[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of the equation is given by [tex]f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex].

We plug in the vertex to obtain:

[tex]f(x)=a(x-7)^2-3[/tex].

Since the graph passes through (5,5) and (9,5), they must satisfy its equation.

[tex]5=a(9-7)^2-3[/tex].

[tex]5+3=4a[/tex].

[tex]8=4a[/tex]

Given: m
TP = 70°
m∠EPT = 54°
Find: Angles of △SPT

Answers

Answer:

The measure of angles of △SPT are

∠PTS=35°, ∠PST=19°, ∠SPT=126°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the figure in which

m∠EPT=54° and arc TP=70°

we have to find angles of △SPT

By tangent chord angle theorem, which states that the angle make by a tangent to a circle and a chord is equals to half of the angle measure of the intercepted arc i.e

[tex]\angle PTS=\frac{1}{2}\angle POT[/tex]

[tex]\angle PTS=\frac{1}{2}\times 70^{\circ}=35^{\circ}[/tex]

As ∠EPT and ∠SPT form linear pair therefore their sum equals to 180°

⇒ ∠EPT+∠SPT=180°

54°+∠SPT=180°

∠SPT=126°

In △SPT, by angle sum property of triangle

∠PST+∠SPT+∠PTS=180°

∠PST+126°+35°=180°

∠PST=19°

A spinner has five congruent sections, one each of blue,green,red,orange, and yellow. Yuri spins the spinner 10 times and records his results in a table.
Which statements are true about Yuri’s experiment? Check all that apply

Answers

Answer:  1st, 3rd  and 5th answers are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

A) The theoretical probability of spinning any one of the five colors is 20%.

C) The theoretical probability of spinning green is equal to the experimental probability of spinning green.

E) If Yuri spins the spinner 600 more times and records results, the experimental probability of spinning orange will get closer to the theoretical probability of spinning orange.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the probability of each events.

Probability of a event = The number of favorable outcomes / The total number of possible outcomes.

Here the total number of possible outcomes = 10.

Probability of getting blue = 1/10 = 0.10

Probability of getting green = 2/10 = 1/5= 0.20 = 20%

Probability of getting red = 0/10 = 0

Probability of getting orange = 4/10 = 0.40

Probability of getting yellow = 3/10 = 0.30

The above are the experimental probability.

The theoretical probability of getting green = 1/5 = 0.20 = 20%

By looking at the results, the following statements are true.

A) The theoretical probability of spinning any one of the five colors is 20%.

C) The theoretical probability of spinning green is equal to the experimental probability of spinning green.

E) If Yuri spins the spinner 600 more times and records results, the experimental probability of spinning orange will get closer to the theoretical probability of spinning orange.

Answer:

c = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

For this triangle we have to

[tex]a=18.2\\B=62\°\\C=48\°[/tex]

We want to find the length of b

We know that the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180 °

then

[tex]A + 62 +48=180\\\\A=180-62-48\\\\A=70\°[/tex]

Now we use the sine theorem to find the length of c:

[tex]\frac{sin(A)}{a}=\frac{sin(B)}{b}=\frac{sin(C)}{c}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\frac{sin(A)}{a}=\frac{sin(C)}{c}\\\\c=\frac{sin(C)}{\frac{sin(A)}{a}}\\\\c=a*\frac{sin(C)}{sin(A)}\\\\c=(18.2)\frac{sin(48)}{sin(70)}\\\\c=14[/tex]

Answer:

c= 14

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the angle A, because it's easy and because we'll need it.

We know that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180, and we have 2 angles... so we can easily find A:

A = 180 - 62 - 48 = 70 degrees

Now, we can use the law of Sines to find c:

[tex]\frac{c}{sin(C)} = \frac{a}{sin(A)}[/tex]

so...

[tex]c = \frac{a * sin(C)}{sin(A)} = \frac{18.2 * sin(48)}{sin(70)} = 14.39[/tex]

The precise answer is 14.39, but you are asked to round up to the closest whole number... so 14.

There are 9 students in a class: 2 boys and 7 girls. If the teacher picks a group of 4 at random, what is the probability that everyone in the group is a girl?

Answers

Answer:

28% probability that every student in the group is a girl.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have independent events, that is, the event "picking a girl" doesn't affect an "picking a boy", also, picking picking a girl doesn't affect the probability of the other subjects.

So, the probability when the first girl is being picked is:

[tex]P_{1}=\frac{7 \ girls}{9 \ students}[/tex]

Because among the total 9 students, there are 7 girls.

Now, after picking one girl, there remains 6 girls and 8 students to be picked. So, the probability of the second girl would be:

[tex]P_{2}=\frac{6 \ girls}{8 \ students}[/tex]

Then, the probability of the third girl:

[tex]P_{3}=\frac{5 \ girls}{7 \ students}[/tex]

The fourth girl probability:

[tex]P_{3}=\frac{4 \ girls}{6 \ students}[/tex]

Therefore, the probability of picking all 4 girls would be the product of each probability, because events are independent (we use product when they are independent):

[tex]P=\frac{7 \ girls}{9 \ students} \times \frac{6 \ girls}{8 \ students} \times \frac{5 \ girls}{7 \ students} \times \frac{4 \ girls}{6 \ students}\\P=\frac{5}{18}=0.28 \ (or \  28\%)[/tex]

Therefore, there's 28% probability that every student in the group is a girl.

The probability that everyone in the group is a girl is 0.2778

How to determine the probability?

The distribution of the students is given as:

Boys = 2

Girls = 7

Total = 9

The selection of the 4 girls at random is:

7 girls from 9 students6 girls from the remaining 8 students5 girls from the remaining 7 students4 girls from the remaining 6 students

So, the probability that all students are girls is:

P = 7/9 * 6/8 * 5/7 * 4/6

Evaluate

P = 0.2778

Hence, the probability that everyone in the group is a girl is 0.2778

Given the proportion, a/b=12/19, which ratio completes the equivalent proportion a/12?
1.) b/19
2.) 12/19
3.) 19/b
4.) a/19

Answers

Answer:

1.) b/19

Step-by-step explanation:

a/b=12/19

you can always swap the b and the 12 (quick SAT trick)

To find the ratio that completes the equivalent proportion for a/12 using the given proportion a/b = 12/19, you will need to use cross multiplication.
Let's denote x as the unknown value that we are trying to find such that a/12 = b/x. To solve for x, we set up the proportion like this:
a/12 = b/x
Now let's cross multiply:
a * x = 12 * b
Since we know from the initial proportion that a/b = 12/19, we can substitute 12/19 for a/b in the equation:
(12/19) * b * x = 12 * b
Now we have b on both sides of the equation, and assuming b is not equal to zero, we can divide both sides of the equation by b to solve for x:
(12/19) * b * x / b = 12 * b / b
12/19 * x = 12
Now we need to isolate x:
x = 12 / (12/19)
To simplify this, you can multiply 12 by the reciprocal of 12/19, which is 19/12:
x = 12 * (19/12)
The 12s cancel each other out:
x = 19
Therefore, the ratio that completes the equivalent proportion is b/19.
The correct answer is:
1.) b/19

Step-by-step explanation:

To remove the parenthesis, we must multiply the number on the outside to each value within the parenthesis

This means that

[tex]6(2-u)\\\\6*2-6*u\\\\12-6u[/tex]

Final answer:

The distributive property is used to remove parentheses by multiplying each term within the parentheses by the number outside. Thus, the expression 6(2 - u) becomes 12 - 6u.

Explanation:

The distributive property is a mathematical principle that shows how to expand an expression involving brackets (or parentheses). To use the distributive property to remove the parentheses in the expression, you multiply the number outside the parentheses by each term inside the parentheses individually. Let's apply this to the expression you provided, 6(2 - u).

First, multiply 6 by 2. This results in 12. Next, multiply 6 by -u. This gives -6u. Therefore, the expression 6(2 - u) without parentheses, using the distributive property, is 12 - 6u.

So all you need to do is multiply the Base by the Height so 16 multipled by 8 is simply 64. Thus the are of the triangle with a base of 16 inches and a height of 8 inches is 64 Inches.

Final answer:

To find the area of a triangle with a given base and height, use the formula Area = (1/2) × base × height. In this case, with a base of 16 inches and a height of 8 inches, the area would be 64 in².

Explanation:

The area of a triangle is calculated using the formula (1/2) × base × height. To find the area of a triangle with a base of 16 inches and a height of 8 inches, you plug the values into the formula:

Area = (1/2) × base × height

Area = (1/2) × 16 inches × 8 inches

Area = 64 in²

What is the other factor of 6x2 – 7x + 2?

Answers

Final answer:

The other factor of the quadratic expression 6x^2 – 7x + 2, once factored, is either (3x - 2) or (2x - 1), depending on which one you view as the 'other' in context.

Explanation:

The student's question asks for the other factor of the quadratic expression 6x2 – 7x + 2.

To find this, one must factor the quadratic expression into the form of (ax + b)(cx + d).

Here are the steps to do so:

Firstly, identify 'a', 'b', and 'c' in the quadratic expression where ax2+bx+c = 6x2 – 7x + 2. Here, a=6, b=-7, and c=2.Next, find two numbers that multiply to ac (which is 6*2=12) and add to b (which is -7).These two numbers are -3 and -4 because (-3)*(-4) = 12 and (-3)+(-4) = -7.Now, rewrite the middle term of the quadratic expression using these two numbers: 6x2 - 3x - 4x + 2.Factor by grouping: (6x2 - 3x) + (-4x + 2).Factor out the common terms: 3x(2x - 1) - 2(2x - 1).Finally, factor out the common binomial: (2x - 1)(3x - 2).

So, the expression factors into (2x - 1)(3x - 2). If one of the factors of the original expression is (x - a), where 'a' is a root of the equation 6x2 – 7x + 2=0, the other factor would be either (2x - 1) or (3x - 2).
