On a sunny day, Larry notices that his shadow is 24 inches long. If it is 74 inches from the top of his head to the end of the shadow, how tall is Larry?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

70 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Larry forms a right triangle with the ground (this is one leg of a right triangle) and he is 24 inches from his shadow (this is the second leg).

74 inches is the hypotenuse of the right triangle

use pythagorean theorem:  a^2 + b^2 = c^2

let h = Larry's height

h^2 + 24^2 = 74^2

h^2 + 576 = 5476

h^2 = 4900

h = sq rt 4900

h = 70

What Percent of 18 is 24?

Answers

Answer:

133.3333..%  of 133 1/3 %

Step-by-step explanation:

100% of 18 is 18.

24-18 = 6.

6 is 33.33333...% of 18.

Therefore 24 is 133.3333..% of 18

or

24/18 = 4/3 = 1.333... = 133.33333...%

The percent 133.3% of 18 is 24.

What is Percentage?

To determine the quantity or percentage of something in terms of 100, use the percentage formula. Per cent simply means one in a hundred. Using the percentage formula, a number between 0 and 1 can be expressed. A number that is expressed as a fraction of 100 is what it is. It is mostly used to compare and determine ratios and is represented by the symbol %.

Given:

let x Percent of 18 is 24.

So, x% of 18 = 24

x/100 (18)= 24

18x = 2400

x= 2400/18

x= 133.33%

Hence, 133.33% of 24 is 18.

Connor's family took a road trip to Niagara Falls. Connor slept through the last 15% of the trip. If Connor fell asleep after they had travel 663 miles what was the total length of the trip.

Answers

Answer:

The length of the trip is 780 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Sleep = 15\%[/tex]

[tex]Distance\ Travelled = 663[/tex]

Required

Determine the length of the trip

If Connor slept for 15% of the trip, then Connor was awake for 85%

This is calculated as:

[tex]Sleep + Awake = 100\%[/tex]

[tex]15\% + Awake = 100\%[/tex]

[tex]Awake = 100\% - 15\%[/tex]

[tex]Awake = 85\%[/tex]

Represent the required distance with D.

So the expression for when she was awake is:

[tex]85\% * D = 663[/tex]

Make D the subject

[tex]D = \frac{663}{85\%}[/tex]

Convert % to decimal

[tex]D = \frac{663}{0.85}[/tex]

[tex]D = 780[/tex]

Hence, the length of the trip is 780 miles

O (X + 8)(x2 + 8x + 64)
O (x – 9)(x? mox +81)
O (X – 10)(x2 – 10x + 100)

Answers

Answer:

(x – 9)(x² + 9x+81)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of cubes of a and b is given by:

a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²)

While the difference of cubes is given as:

a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²)

1) (x + 7)(x² – 7x + 14) = x³ -7x² + 14x + 7x² - 49x + 98

= x³ -35x + 98

2) (X + 8)(x² + 8x + 64) = x³ + 8x² + 64x + 8x² + 64x + 512

= x³ + 16x² + 128x + 8³

3)  (x – 9)(x² + 9x+81) = x³ + 9x² + 81x - 9x² - 81x - 729

= x³ - 9³

4) (X – 10)(x² – 10x + 100) = x³ - 10x² + 100x - 10x² + 100x - 1000

= x³ - 20x² + 200x - 10³

What is the area of the shaded region in the figure below? Use 3.14 for pie

Answers

Answer:

200.96 = area of Shaded portions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the 2 stars.

I don't know if you can see this or not, but the 4 quarter circles surrounding the star is found by subtracting a full small square surrounding the star

Area of 1 star = 4 * (1/4) pi * r^2

Area of 1 star = 3.14 * 4^2

Area of 1 star = 50.24

Area of both stars = 100.48

Area of the 4 semicircles at each end

The 2 semicircles at one end figure = 1 circle

The two circles gives the total area of the 4 semicircles.

Area 1 circle = pr * r^2

Area 1 circle = 3.14 * (8/2)^2

Area 1 circle = 50.24

There are 2 such circles = 100.48

Total area of both results

Total Area = 100.48 + 100.48

Total Area = 200.96

apples cost $0.75 per pound and bananas cost $1.05 per pound

a baker bought a total of 12 pounds of apples and bananas for $10.20.

the systems of equation models the situation, where A is the number of pounds of apples and B is the number of pounds of bananas how many pounds of each did the baker buy?​

Answers

Answer:

The baker bought 8 apples and 4 bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations

Let's call:

a = pounds of apples

b = pounds of bananas

The baker bought a total of 12 pounds of apples and bananas, thus:

a + b = 12      [1]

Apple cost $0.75 per pound and each pound of bananas cost $1.05 per pound. Thus the total cost is 0.75a + 1.05b. We know he spent a total of $10.20, thus

0.75a + 1.05b = 10.20     [2]

Solving [1] for a:

a = 12 - b       [3]

Substituting in [2]:

0.75(12 - b) + 1.05b = 10.20

Operating

9 - 0.75b + 1.05b = 10.20

Simplifying:

0.30b = 10.20 - 9 = 1.20

Dividing by 0.30:

b = 1.20/0.30

b = 4

From [3]:

a = 12 - 4 = 8

a = 8

The baker bought 8 apples and 4 bananas

Determine what shape is formed for the given coordinates for ABCD, and then find the perimeter and area as an exact value and rounded to the nearest tenth.

A (−9, 3), B (−6, −1), C (2, 5), D (−5, 6)

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter = 5 + 5 + 7.1 + 10 =27.1

area = (5 + 10)x5  / 2 = 37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula: m = (x' - x)/(y' - y)

m-AD: (6-3)/(-5 - -9) = 3/4    (I'm not detail other Other slopes)

m- BC = 3/4

m-AB = - 4/3

m-AD = m-BC         AD // BC      (ABCD is a Trapezoid)

m-AB = - 1 / m-BC

AB ⊥ BC

segment length formula: d = √(x' - x)² + (y' - y)²

AD = √(-5 - -9)² + (6 - 3)² = √4² + 3² = √25 = 5

DC = √50 = 7.1

BC = √100 = 10

AB = √25 = 5

Perimeter = 5 + 5 + 7.1 + 10 =27.1

area = (5 + 10)x5  / 2 = 37.5

area ABCD = (5+10)x5  / 2 =

A model village is built to scale.
It has a scale of 1 : 19.
A road has a real-life length of 1.14 km.
What is the length of the road in the model village in m?

Answers

Answer:

The length of the road in the model is 60 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: scale = 1:19

         real-life length of the road = 1.14 km

                                                      = 1140 m

Let the length of the road in the model be represented by d. A scale is a representative fraction that can be used to either increase or decrease the length of an object.

Scale = [tex]\frac{length on drawing}{actual length}[/tex]

The actual length is the real-life length given as 1140 m.

So that,

[tex]\frac{1}{19}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{d}{1140}[/tex]

19d = 1140

⇒ d = [tex]\frac{1140}{19}[/tex]

       = 60

Therefore, the length of the road in the model is 60 m.

The present age of father is thrice as old as the age of daughter 5 years ago. If 5 years hence ,the age of father will be twice the age of his daughter. Find their present ages

Answers

Answer:

Hence the daughter's present age is 15 years

The fathers present age is 35 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of daughter be x

Let the present age of father be y

5 years ago;

Daughter's age = x - 5

Fathers age = y - 5

If the present age of father is thrice as old as the age of daughter 5 years ago, then;

y - 5 = 3(x-5)

y - 5 = 3x-15

y = 3x - 10 .... 1

In 5 years time;

Daughters age = x + 5

Fathers age = y + 5

If the age of father will be twice the age of his daughter in 5 years time then;

y+5 = 2(x+5)

y+5 = 2x + 10

y = 2x + 5 .....2

Equate 1 and 2;

3x - 10 = 2x + 5

3x - 2x = 5 + 10

x = 15

Since y = 2x + 5

y = 2(15) + 5

y = 35

Hence the daughter's present age is 15 years

The fathers present age is 35 years

Is Noah's work correct? Explain. Yes, Noah's calculations are correct. No, Noah did not simplify correctly. No, Noah used the diameter instead of the radius in the calculations. No, Noah did not use the correct formula for volume of a sphere.

Answers

Answer:

No, Noah used the diameter instead of the radius in the calculations.

V = 91.13π

Step-by-step explanation:

Noah is working on a geometry problem that involves finding the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 9 units. His work is shown below.

V = πr3

V = π(9)3

V = π(729)

V = 972π cubic units

Is Noah’s work correct

Volume of a sphere, V = πr³

radius, r = diameter / 2

Diameter = 9 units

r = 9 / 2

= 4.5 units

Volume of a sphere, V = πr³

= π × 4.5³

= π × 91.125

= 91.125π

Approximately 91.13π

V = 91.13π

No, Noah used the diameter instead of the radius in the calculations.

=> a = 42cos60° = 21.

sin60° = Opposite/Hypotenuse d/42.

=> d = 42sin60° = 42(√3/2) = 21√3.

tan30° = Opposite/Adjacent = d/b.

=> b = d / tan30° = (21√3) / (1/√3) = 63.

sin30° = Opposite/Hypotenuse = d/c.

The length of a rectangle is represented by 4a+3b and its width is represented by 3a-2b. Enter the polynomial for the perimeter of the rectangle. What is the minimum perimeter of the rectangle if a=12 and b is a non-zero whole number?

Answers

Answer:

a) The polynomial for the perimeter of the rectangle is = 14a - 2b

b) 150

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The formula for the area of a rectangle is given as:

P = 2L + 2W

From the question:

The length of a rectangle = 4a+3b

The width of a rectangle = 3a-2b.

The Perimeter of the rectangle is

Perimeter = 2(4a + 3b) + 2(3a - 2b)

Perimeter = 8a + 6b + 6a - 4b

Perimeter = 8a + 6a + 6b - 4b

Perimeter = 14a - 2b

Hence:

The polynomial for the perimeter of the rectangle is = 14a - 2b

b) What is the minimum perimeter of the rectangle if a=12 and b is a non-zero whole number?

Non-zero whole number are single digit number such as: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

The perimeter of the rectangle is = 14a - 2b

We are asked to find the minimum perimeter of the rectangle if a=12 and b is a non-zero whole number.

In order to solve this, we would used the highest non zero whole number which is 9

Hence,

For a = 12 , b = 9

14 × 12 - 2(9)

= 168 - 18

= 150

Hence, the minimum perimeter of the rectangle if a=12 and b is a non-zero whole number is 150

Some liquid will be poured from a 16 ounce container until it is filled to the percent of the the larger container (87.5%).How many ounces of liquid must be poured from to reach the full 16 ounce container?

Answers

Answer:

16 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

First we are told that a container has a capacity of 16 ounces of liquid and therefore 16 ounces of liquid can fill that one container

The 16 ounces liquid from the 16 ounce container is fully emptied in a larger container and fills 87.5% of the larger container therefore the larger container is:

100/87.5×16 ounces= 18.285 ounces in liquid capacity

Therefore to fill the smaller 16 ounce container, the larger container would have to pour 16 ounces of liquid into the smaller container, and would would still have 18.285-16=2.285 ounces if it(the larger container) were filled to the brim(100%)
