A window-washer is climbing a 37-foot ladder leaning against a building. The ladder touches the building 35 feet above the ground. What is the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building?
Answer: the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building is 12 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ladder makes an angle, θ with the ground thus forming a right angle triangle with the wall of the house.
The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.
The distance from the ground to the point where the ladder touches the wall of the building represents the opposite side
Therefore, to determine the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building, x, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
37² = 35² + x²
1369 = x² + 1225
x² = 1369 - 1225 = 144
x = √144 = 12 feet
Final answer:
To find the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building, use the Pythagorean theorem with the given ladder height and building contact point. Calculate the distance as 12 feet.
Explanation:
A window-washer is climbing a ladder leaning against a building. In this scenario, the ladder is 37 feet long and touches the building 35 feet above the ground. To find the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.
By applying the Pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c², where a and b are the distances from the bottom of the ladder to the building and from the base to the building, respectively, and c is the length of the ladder, we can calculate the distance to be 12 feet.
Therefore, the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the base of the building is 12 feet.
x²-2x+1 let a, b, c be positive integers such that the quadratic equation ax² - bx + c = 0 has two distinct roots in the interval (0,1). Find the smallest possible value of a.
Answer:
The least value of a = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
As it has two distinct roots . According to roll's theorem there should be a point where f'(x)=0
In a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 the point of maxima or minima is
x = - b/2a
We can find by differentiating it
2ax - b= 0
x = b/2a
So 0 < b/2a < 1
0 < b/a < 2
0 < b < 2a
a > b/2
then, the least value of b = 2 and the least value of a = 1

A high positive correlation is found between college students' age and their GPA. However, if one student aged 44 with a high GPA is omitted from the study, the correlation all but disappears. This is an example of:
Answer:
Then we can conclude that this value is an influential point since is affecting probably the significance of the model and for this reason is that we see that the correlation disapear.
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
The correlation coefficient is a "statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables". It's denoted by r and its always between -1 and 1.
And in order to calculate the correlation coefficient we can use this formula:
[tex]r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}[/tex]
By definition an outlier is a point "that diverges from an overall pattern in a sample". The residual for this outiler is usually high and when we have presence of outliers our model probably would be not significant since the tendency is not satisfied.
By definition and influential point is a point that has "a large effect on the slope of a regression line fitting the data:. And usually represent values that are too high or low respect to the others.
Solution to the problem
For this case we assume that we have a high positive correlation between college student's age and the GPA.
So we assume that [tex] 0.7 \leq r \leq 1[/tex]
And We see that after introduce the value of 44 for the age the correlation disappears, that means decrease significantly.
Then we can conclude that this value is an influential point since is affecting probably the significance of the model and for this reason is that we see that the correlation disapear.
At 3:30 in the afternoon in mid-September the Kimball Tower casts a shadow about 290 feet long when the sun's rays come down at an angle about 35 degrees above the horizontal. About how high is the building?
Answer:
203 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please find the attachment.
Let h represent the height of the building.
We have been given that at 3:30 in the afternoon in mid-September the Kimball Tower casts a shadow about 290 feet long when the sun's rays come down at an angle about 35 degrees above the horizontal.
We know that tangent relates opposite side of a right triangle to its adjacent side.
[tex]\text{tan}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Adjacent}}[/tex]
Upon substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:
[tex]\text{tan}(35^{\circ})=\frac{h}{290}[/tex]
[tex]290*\text{tan}(35^{\circ})=\frac{h}{290}*290[/tex]
[tex]290*0.70020753821=h[/tex]
[tex]h=290*0.70020753821[/tex]
[tex]h=203.0601860809[/tex]
[tex]h\approx 203[/tex]
Therefore, the building is approximately 203 feet high.
A local dinner theater sells adult tickets for $105 each and children’s tickets for $60 each. For a certain show, the theater sells 84 tickets for a total of $7155. How many of each type of ticket were sold?
write a system of equations that models this problem and then show all the steps to solve your system of equations using the linear combination.
Answer:
The answer to your question is he sold 47 adult tickets and 37 children tickets.
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Adult ticket = a = $105
Children ticket = c = $60
Total number of tickets = 84
Total money earn = $7155
Equations
a + c = 84 ------------ (I)
105a + 60c = 7155 -------------(II)
Multiply equation I by -60
-60a - 60c = -5040
105a + 60c = 7155
Simplify
45a = 2115
a = 2115 / 45
a = 47 tickets
Substitute a in equation I
47 + c = 84
c = 84 - 47
c = 37 tickets
You can form linear equations from the given description then use that system to derive the solution.
The amount of each type of tickets sold are:
Children tickets sold = 37
Adult tickets sold = 47
How to form mathematical expression from the given description?You can represent the unknown amounts by the use of variables. Follow whatever the description is and convert it one by one mathematically. For example if it is asked to increase some item by 4 , then you can add 4 in that item to increase it by 4. If something is for example, doubled, then you can multiply that thing by 2 and so on methods can be used to convert description to mathematical expressions.
Using the above methodology to get the system of equation modelling the given situationLet the amount of adult tickets sold be "a"
Let the amount of children tickets sold be "c"
Since the total amount of tickets sold is given as 84
Thus,
Total tickets = children tickets + adult tickets
84 = c + a
a + c = 84
since 1 adult ticket costs $105,
thus, "a" adult tickets cost [tex]105 \times a = 105a \text{\:\:(Written in short)}[/tex] (in dollars)
Similarly,
since 1 children ticket costs $60
"c" children tickets cost [tex]60c[/tex] (in dollars)
Since the price obtained by selling those tickets is $7155
thus,
total amount earned = amount earned by children tickets + amount earned by adult tickets
$7155 = $60c + $105a
Thus, we got the system of equations as:
[tex]a + c = 84\\105a + 60c = 7155[/tex]
Multiplying first equation with -105 to make a's coefficient equal and opposite to make the addition of them eliminate "a":
[tex]-105a -105c = -105 \times 84\\105a + 60c = 7155\\\\\text{Addding both equations}\\\\-45c = 7155 - 8820 = -1665\\\\c = \dfrac{1665}{45} = 37[/tex]
Putting this value in first equation, we get:
[tex]a + c = 84\\a + 37 = 84\\a = 84 - 37 = 47[/tex]
Thus,
The amount of each type of tickets sold are:
Children tickets sold = 37
Adult tickets sold = 47

At the city Museum child omission is $5.70 and adult admission is $9.80. On Tuesday 124 tickets were sold for a total sales of $936. How many child tickets were sold that day
Answer: 68 child tickets were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of child tickets that were sold that day.
Let y represent the number of adult tickets that were sold that day.
A total of 124 tickets were sold on Tuesday. This means that
x + y = 124
At the city Museum child admission is $5.70 and adult admission is $9.80. The total sales from tickets was $936. This means that
5.7x + 9.8y = 936 - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 124 - y into equation 1, it becomes
5.7(124 - y) + 9.8y = 936
706.8 - 5.7y + 9.8y = 936
- 5.7y + 9.8y = 936 - 706.8
4.1y = 229.2
y = 229.2/4.1
y = 55.9
y = 56
x = 124 - y = 124 - 56
x = 68

1.3x + 0.5y = 17
-0.7 - 2.5y = -73.4
Answer:
(x, y) = (2, 28.8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Your ability to do arithmetic should not be limited to integers. Here we see the coefficients of y are related by a factor of -5, so multiplying the first equation by 5 can make the y-terms cancel when that is added to the second equation.
5(1.3x +0.5y) +(-0.7x -2.5y) = 5(17) +(-73.4)
6.5x +2.5y -0.7x -2.5y = 85 -73.4 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
5.8x = 11.6 . . . . . . collect terms
x = 11.6/5.8 = 2 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
1.3(2) +0.5y = 17 . . . . . . substitute for x in the first equation
0.5y = 14.4 . . . . . . subtract 2.6
y = 28.8 . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
The solution is (x, y) = (2, 28.8).
Answer:x = 2
y = 28.8
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system of simultaneous equations is expressed as
1.3x + 0.5y = 17 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
-0.7 - 2.5y = -73.4 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
The first step multiply all the terms by 10 in order to eliminate the decimal points. The equations become
13x + 5y = 170 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
-7 - 25y = -734 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
Then we would multiply both rows by numbers which would make the coefficients of x to be equal in both rows.
Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 13, it becomes
91x + 35y = - 1190
91x + 325y = 9542
Subtracting, it becomes
- 290y = - 8352
y = - 8352/- 290 = 28.8
Substituting y = 28.8 into equation 1, it becomes
13x + 5 × 28.8 = 170
13x + 144 = 170
13x = 170 - 144 = 26
x = 26/13 = 2

A race car travels with a constant tangential speed of 82.6 m/s around a circular track of radius 667 m. Find the magnitude of the total acceleration.
Answer:
TOTAL ACCELERATION =10.229m/s²
Step-by-step explanation:
total acceleration = [tex]\sqrt{centripetal accleration^{2} +tagential acceleration^{2} }[/tex]
since tangential speed is constant , tangential acceleration =0
Thus total acceleration = centripetal acceleration.
centripetal acceleration = v²/r
v=82.6m/s , r= 667m
centripetal acceleration = 82.6²/667
centripetal acceleration = 10.229m/s²
TOTAL ACCELERATION =10.229m/s²
Final answer:
The magnitude of the total acceleration of a race car traveling with a constant tangential speed of 82.6 m/s around a circular track of radius 667 m is 10.20 m/s², which is the centripetal acceleration.
Explanation:
The question asks to find the magnitude of the total acceleration of a race car traveling with a constant tangential speed of 82.6 m/s around a circular track of radius 667 m. In circular motion, the total acceleration is the centripetal acceleration, since the tangential speed (speed along the arc of the circle) is constant and there is no tangential acceleration. The formula for centripetal acceleration (ac) is ac = v2 / r, where v is the tangential speed and r is the radius of the circular path.
Using the given values:
ac = (82.6 m/s)2 / 667 m = 10.20 m/s2
Therefore, the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration of the race car is 10.20 m/s2.

Answer: a. 28ft/s. b. 40.08ft/s. c. 42.4ft/s. d. 43.68ft/s. e. - 20ft/s
Step-by-step explanation: Since your displacement was given that is (y) , we just have to differentiate y with respect to time t. That is the first derivative only.
I have worked it out and here is the attachment.
Final answer:
To find the average velocity during different time periods, we can calculate the changes in height and time. By substituting the given values of t into the height equation, we can determine the heights at different times. We can then calculate the average velocities by taking the change in height divided by the change in time. Additionally, to estimate the instantaneous velocity when t = 2, we can differentiate the height equation and substitute t = 2 into the derivative.
Explanation:
To find the average velocity for a given time period, we need to calculate the change in height and the change in time. Using the equation y = 44t - 16t^2, we can substitute the values of t = 2 and t = 2.5 to find the heights at these times. Then, we can find the average velocities.
(a) For the time period of 0.5 seconds starting at t = 2, we calculate the heights at t = 2 and t = 2.5: y(2) = 44(2) - 16(2^2) = 36 ft and y(2.5) = 44(2.5) - 16(2.5^2) = 35 ft. The average velocity is the change in height divided by the change in time: (35 - 36) ft / 0.5 s = -2 ft/s.
(b) For the time period of 0.1 second starting at t = 2, we calculate the heights at t = 2 and t = 2.1: y(2) = 36 ft and y(2.1) = 44(2.1) - 16(2.1^2) = 37.644 ft. The average velocity is the change in height divided by the change in time: (37.644 - 36) ft / 0.1 s = 16.44 ft/s.
(c) For the time period of 0.05 second starting at t = 2, we calculate the heights at t = 2 and t = 2.05: y(2) = 36 ft and y(2.05) = 44(2.05) - 16(2.05^2) = 37.079 ft. The average velocity is the change in height divided by the change in time: (37.079 - 36) ft / 0.05 s = 21.58 ft/s.
(d) For the time period of 0.01 second starting at t = 2, we calculate the heights at t = 2 and t = 2.01: y(2) = 36 ft and y(2.01) = 44(2.01) - 16(2.01^2) = 36.764 ft. The average velocity is the change in height divided by the change in time: (36.764 - 36) ft / 0.01 s = 76.4 ft/s.
(e) To estimate the instantaneous velocity when t = 2, we can calculate the derivative of the height function. The derivative of y(t) = 44t - 16t^2 with respect to t is dy/dt = 44 - 32t. Substituting t = 2 into this equation, we get dy/dt = 44 - 32(2) = -20 ft/s.

A researcher wants to determine whether the rate of water flow (in liters per second) over an experimental soil bed can be used to predict the amount of soil washed away (in kilograms). The researcher measures the amount of soil washed away for various flow rates, and from these data calculates the least-squares regression line to be: amount of eroded sol = 0.4 + 1.3x (wbere x is flow rate). The correlation between amount of eroded soil and flow rate would be:________
a) 1.3.
b) positive, but we canno say what the exact value is.
c) either positive or negative, but it is impossible to say anything about the correlation from the information given.
d) 11.3,
Answer:
b)
Step-by-step explanation:
The correlation between amount of eroded soil and flow rate would be positive because the slope is positive. The correlation coefficient cannot be determine using the given information as the information is not enough.
If we have data value or standard deviation for y and standard deviation x then the correlation coefficient can be calculated. From the given regression equation amount of eroded sol = 0.4 + 1.3x (where x is flow rate), the intercept=0.4 and slope=1.3.
We can only tell the sign of correlation coefficient by considering the sign of slope which is positive in the given scenario.
Hence, the correlation is positive but exact value cannot be determine.

Oil Tankers The mean number of oil tankers at a port city is eight per day. Find the probability that the number of oil tankers on any given day is (a) exactly eight, (b) at most three, and (c) more than eight.
Answer:
a) P(8) = 0.1395
b) P(at most three) = 0.0423684
c) P(X > 8) = 0.41
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Mean, μ = 8
Now,
Probability that the number of oil tankers on any given day is
a) exactly eight
using Poisson distribution
we have
P(x) = [tex]\frac{\mu^xe^{-\mu}}{x!}[/tex]
for x = 8
P(8) = [tex]\frac{8^8e^{-8}}{8!}[/tex]
or
P(8) = [tex]\frac{16777216\times e^{-8}}{40320}[/tex]
or
P(8) = 0.1395
b) at most three
i.e P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3)
thus,
P(0) = [tex]\frac{8^0e^{-8}}{0!}[/tex] = 0.0003354
P(1) = [tex]\frac{8^1e^{-8}}{1!}[/tex] = 0.002683
P(2) = [tex]\frac{8^2e^{-8}}{2!}[/tex] = 0.01073
P(3) = [tex]\frac{8^3e^{-8}}{3!}[/tex] = 0.02862
⇒ P(at most three) = 0.0003354 + 0.002683 + 0.01073 + 0.02862
= 0.0423684
c) more than eight.
P(X > 8) = 1 - P(X ≤ 8)
Now,
P(0) = [tex]\frac{8^0e^{-8}}{0!}[/tex] = 0.0003354
P(1) = [tex]\frac{8^1e^{-8}}{1!}[/tex] = 0.002683
P(2) = [tex]\frac{8^2e^{-8}}{2!}[/tex] = 0.01073
P(3) = [tex]\frac{8^3e^{-8}}{3!}[/tex] = 0.02862
P(4) = [tex]\frac{8^4e^{-8}}{4!}[/tex] = 0.05725
P(5) = [tex]\frac{8^5e^{-8}}{5!}[/tex] = 0.091603
P(6) = [tex]\frac{8^6e^{-8}}{6!}[/tex] = 0.1221
P(7) = [tex]\frac{8^7e^{-8}}{7!}[/tex] = 0.13958
P(8) = [tex]\frac{8^8e^{-8}}{8!}[/tex] = 0.13758
Thus,
P(X > 8) = 1 - [ 0.0003354 + 0.002683 + 0.01073 + 0.02862 + 0.05725 + 0.091603 + 0.1221 + 0.13958 + 0.13758 ]
P(X > 8) = 1 - 0.5904814
or
P(X > 8) = 0.41

What is the domain of the function f (x) = StartFraction x + 1 Over x squared minus 6 x + 8 EndFraction? all real numbers all real numbers except –1 all real numbers except –4 and –2 all real numbers except 2 and 4
Answer:
all real numbers except 2 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The exceptions in the domain are the values that make the denominator zero. For a denominator of x² -6x +8 = (x -4)(x -2), the values that make it zero are x=4 and x=2.
The domain is all real numbers except 2 and 4.
Answer:
Option D is correct.
The domain of the function f(x) is all real numbers except 2 and 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = (x+1)/(x²-6x+8)
The domain of a function expresses the region of values of x, where the function exists.
And logically, a function exists where ever f(x) has a finite value. That is, the only point where A function does not exist is when f(x) gives infinity.
For a rational function, the point where a function doesn't exist is when the denominator of the rational function is equal to 0. Because (numerator/0) --> ∞
So, the denominator in this question is
x²-6x+8
The function doesn't exist when
x²-6x+8 = 0
So, we solve the quadratic equation that ensues to get the values of x where the function doesn't exist.
x²-6x+8 = 0
x² - 4x - 2x + 8 = 0
x(x-4) - 2(x-4) = 0
(x-2)(x-4) = 0
(x-2) = 0 or (x-4) = 0
x = 2 or x = 4
This means that the function doesnt exist at x = 2 and x = 4
Indicating further that the function exists everywhere except at x = 2 and x = 4.
Hence, from the definition of domain given above, it is clear that the domain of the given function is all real numbers except 2 and 4.
Hope this Helps!!!

A college bookstore marks up the price that it pays the publisher for a book by 40 %. If the selling price of a book is $ 81.00 comma how much did the bookstore pay for this book?
Answer:
32.40
Step-by-step explanation:
81 x 40% =48.60
81. -48.60 = 32.40
Answer:the college bookstore paid
$57.86 for the book.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the price that the college bookstore paid the publisher to get the book.
The college bookstore marks up the price by 40%. It means that the value of the mark up would be .40/100 × x = 0.4 × x = 0.4x
Therefore, the selling price of the book at the college bookstore would be
x + 0.4x = 1.4x
If the selling price of a book is $ 81.00, it means that
1.4x = 81
x = 81/1.4 = $57.86
Sam has a total of 40 dvds, movies and tv shows. The number of movies is 4 less then 3 times the number of tv shows. Write and solove a system of equations to find the number of movies and tv shows.
Answer:Sam has 29 movies.
Sam has 11 TV shows.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of movies that Sam has.
Let y represent the number of TV shows that Sam has.
Sam has a total of 40 dvds, movies and tv shows. This means that
x + y = 40 - - - - - - - - - - -1
The number of movies is 4 less then 3 times the number of tv shows. This means that
x = 3y - 4 - - - - - - - - - - -2
Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, it becomes
3y - 4 + y = 40
4y - 4 = 40
4y = 40 + 4 = 44
y = 44/4 = 11
x = 3y - 4 = 3 × 11 - 4
x = 33 - 4
x = 29
By creating a system of equations from the given problem, m + t = 40 and m = 3t - 4, and solving it through substitution, it was determined that Sam has 29 movies and 11 TV shows in his DVD collection.
Explanation:To solve the given problem, we need to use a system of linear equations. The two variables we need to find are the number of movies (m) and the number of TV shows (t).
According to the problem, the total number of DVDs, which includes both movies and TV shows, is 40. This can be written as an equation: m + t = 40. Additionally, we are told that the number of movies is 4 less than three times the number of TV shows. This gives us a second equation: m = 3t - 4.
Now we have the following system of equations:
m + t = 40m = 3t - 4We can solve this system by substitution. First, substitute the second equation into the first equation:
(3t - 4) + t = 404t - 4 = 404t = 44t = 11Now that we have found the number of TV shows (t), we can calculate the number of movies (m):
m = 3t - 4m = 3(11) - 4m = 33 - 4m = 29Therefore, Sam has 29 movies and 11 TV shows in his collection of 40 DVDs.
