A rectangle that has an area of 357 square inches is 17 inches wide. How long is the rectangle?

Answers

Answer 1
21 inches long. 17x21=357
Answer 2
Hi Serenafrancis1! :)

The formula for the area of a rectangle is:
[tex]L*W[/tex]
[tex]L=length[/tex]
[tex]W=Width[/tex]

We can input all the information we know to solve for the missing variable:
[tex]L*17=357[/tex]
Divide both sides by 17
[tex](L*17)/17=(357)/17[/tex]
Simplify.
[tex]L=21[/tex]

The rectangle is 21 inches long.

Hope this helps.

An airplane pilot over the Pacific sights an atoll at an angle of depression of 5. At this time, the horizontal distance from the airplane to the atoll is 4629 meters. What is the height of the plane to the nearest meter?


A. 403 m
B. 405 m
C. 4611 m
D. 4647 m

Answers

b) 405 m
tan(5) = x/4629
4629tan(5) = 404.9
Round up
x=405 m

Rounded to the nearest meter, the height of the plane is approximately 405 meters.

So, the correct answer is B. 405 m.

To find the height of the plane, we can use trigonometry, specifically the tangent function.

Let's denote the height of the plane as h (in meters).

From the information given, we know that the angle of depression from the airplane to the atoll is 5 degrees, and the horizontal distance from the airplane to the atoll is 4629 meters.

Using the tangent function, we have:

tan(angle of depression) = height / horizontal distance

tan(5 degrees) = h / 4629

To find the value of h, we can rearrange the equation:

h = 4629 * tan(5 degrees)

Now, let's calculate the height of the plane:

h ≈ 4629 * 0.0874886635 ≈ 404.773 meters

Rounded to the nearest meter, the height of the plane is approximately 405 meters.

So, the correct answer is B. 405 m.

On the other hand
S = OF*OG/2 + OG*OH/2 + OH*OE/2 + OE*OF/2 = 2*x/2 + x*5/2 + 5*x/2 + x*2/2 = 2*x + 5*x = 7*x = 35

C)720
D)750

Answers

I think it is C

BMK ><

Answer:

c)720

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a set of credit scores is u=690 and o=14.

mean = 690  and standard deviation SD = 14

We use z- score formula

[tex]z=\frac{x-mean}{SD}[/tex]

z= 3.3 given

Plug in the values and find out x

[tex]3.3=\frac{x-690}{14}[/tex]

Answers

P(even number) = 8/16 = 1/2...sample space is 16, there are 8 even numbers (2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16)
P (odd prime number) = 5/16...sample space is 16, there are 5 odd primes (3,5,7,11,13)

Answer:

B. 0.813

Step-by-step explanation:

A sixteen-sided number cube has the numbers 1 through 16 on each face.

So, [tex]|\ S\ |=16[/tex]

Let us assume that, A be the event that the number will be an even number. So,

[tex]A=\left \{ 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16 \right \}[/tex] and [tex]|\ A\ |=8[/tex]

Then,

[tex]P(A)=\dfrac{|\ A\ |}{|\ S\ |}=\dfrac{8}{16}[/tex]

Let us assume that, B be the event that the number will be an odd prime number.

[tex]B=\left \{3,5,7,11,13 \right \}[/tex] and [tex]|\ B\ |=5[/tex]

Then,

[tex]P(B)=\dfrac{|\ B\ |}{|\ S\ |}=\dfrac{5}{16}[/tex]

So the probability that you will roll an even number or an odd prime number will be,

[tex]P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cup B)[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{8}{16}+\dfrac{5}{16}-0[/tex] ( as independent events)

[tex]=\dfrac{13}{16}[/tex]

A basketball is thrown with an initial upward velocity of 23 feet per second from a height of 7 feet above the ground. The equation h=−16t2+23t+7h=−16t2+23t+7 models the height in feet t seconds after the basketball is thrown. After the ball passes its maximum height, it comes down and then goes into the hoop at a height of 10 feet above the ground. About how long after it was thrown does it go into the hoop? Select one: a. 1.29 seconds b. 1.44 seconds c. 1.70 seconds

Answers

t=(23±√337)/32, since we are looking for the larger value of t, as the ball in returning downward...

t=(23+√337)/32

t≈1.29 seconds
Final answer:

Given the provided motion physics model and using the quadratic formula, it is determined that it would take approximately 3.79 seconds for the basketball to go into the hoop after it was thrown.

Explanation:

The subject in consideration here is a problem related to quadratic equations in motion physics. The equation given in the question signifies a model of the height of the basketball as a function of time in the format of a quadratic equation. The equation is h = -16t² + 23t + 7.

With this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula to find the amount of time it takes for the ball to reach the hoop.

Upon using the quadratic formula, two solutions come up, t = 3.79 s and t = 0.54 s. The ball is at a height of 10 m at two times during its trajectory—once on the way up (as it rises) and once on the way down (as it falls). Since the question is about the time the ball goes into the hoop after reaching its maximum height and coming down, the larger value of t (3.79s) is considered as the valid solution.

Therefore, the time it takes for the basketball to go into the hoop after it was thrown is approximately 3.79 seconds which is not an offered option.

A cylindrical tank standing upright (with one circular base on the ground) has a radius of 1212 cm for the base. how fast does the water level in the tank drop when the water is being drained at 2323 cm33/sec? note that the volume of a cylinder is v=πr2hv=πr2h where rr is the radius of the base and hh is the height of the cylinder.

Answers

To find the rate of change of height with respect to time, we use the formula dh/dt = dV/dt / (πr²) and substitute the given values for the rate of volume change and the radius.

We have the rate of volume change as 23 cm³/sec and the cylinder has a radius of 12 cm. Note that the typo '2323 cm³/sec' and '1212 cm' should be read as '23 cm³/sec' and '12 cm,' respectively.

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula V = πr²h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height. To find the rate at which the height h changes over time, we can take the derivative of the volume with respect to time, which gives us dV/dt = πr² dh/dt. We can solve this equation for dh/dt (the rate of change of height with respect to time) by dividing both sides by πr² and substituting the given values. Therefore, dh/dt = dV/dt / (πr²).

Substituting the values, we get:

dh/dt = 23 cm³/sec / (π * (12 cm)²)

Upon simplifying, we will obtain the rate at which the height of the water is decreasing in cm/sec.

William buys a basket of lemons on sale for $11 before tax. The sales tax is 15%. What is the total price William pays for the basket of lemons?

Answers

it would be 12.65 dollars because you multiply 11 times 0.15 and add that answer to 11
Compute the tax then add it to the original amount.

Convert the percent into a decimal by moving the % sign two places to the left and making the % sign into a decimal point.

15% = 0.15

0.15 * 11 = 1.65

Now add it back to the original amount.

11 + 1.65 = 12.65

So, $12.65 is the answer.

first start of by factoring  and subtracting the 1 into the right side

sin(x)  ( 2 sin (x)  + 1)  = -1  

set each one equal to -1 

sin( x) = -1   and   2 sin (x) +1 =  -1 

                              2 sin (x) = -2
                               sin ( x) = -1

A tree casts a shadow of 26 meters when the angle of elevation of the sun is 24°. find the height of the tree to the nearest meter.

Answers

Final answer:

Using the trigonometric tangential function, the height of the tree casting a 26-meter shadow at an angle of elevation of 24° is approximately 11 meters.

Explanation:

The given problem can be solved by applying trigonometric principles, specifically the tangent function. In this case, we know the shadow length (26m) and the angle of elevation of the sun (24°). The height of the tree is the side opposite the angle, and the shadow is the adjacent side. Thus, we can use the tangent equation (Tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent). So, Tan 24° = Height of the tree / 26m. By cross multiplying and evaluating Tan 24°, we get the height of the tree to be approximately 11 meters.
