A man drove 8 miles directly east from his home, made a left turn at an intersection, and then traveled 8 miles due north to his place of work. If a road was made directly from his home to his place of work, what would its distance be? ______ miles

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

11.3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the pythagorean theorem to find the distance from his home to work, since the 3 roads form a right triangle where the new road is the hypotenuse.

a² + b² = c²

8² + 8² = c²

128 = c²

= approx. 11.3 miles

Answer 2

The distance between his home and his work of place is 11.31 miles.

Given,

A man drove 8 miles directly east from his home, made a left turn at an intersection, and then traveled 8 miles due north to his place of work.

A road was made directly from his home to his place of work.

We need to find what would its distance be in miles,

How to construct direction?

We have,

                 North

West   <----- ⇅ ------->           East

                 South

What is the Pythagorean theorem?

In a right triangle,

The square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the other two sides.

Find the direction of the given statement.

A man drove 8 miles directly east from his home:

              8 miles

Home ------------------->East

Made a left turn at an intersection, and then traveled 8 miles due north to his place of work:

                         

             North         Work

                 ⇅              Left

                                ⇅ 8 miles

Home ------------------->East

                                ⇅

                               Right

If a road was made directly from his home to his place of work:

                                                        Work

Home                       North          

West   <------------------⇅ --------------->East

                               South

                                          A  (Work)

                              /          ║                              

                       /                 ║ 8 miles

                  /                      ║  

(Home) B /___________║C

                      8 miles

Find the distance between home and place of work.

AB = distance between home from work

Applying the Pythagorean theorem.

AB² = BC² + AC²

AB² = 8² + 8²

AB² = 64 + 64

AB² = 128

AB = ±√128

The distance can never be negative here so,

√128 = 11.31

AB = 11.31 miles.

Thus the distance between his home and his work of place is 11.31 miles.

State the trigonometric substitution you would use to find the indefinite integral. Do not integrate. (25 + x2)−6 dx x(θ) =

Answers

Answer:

x(θ) = 5 tan θ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]\int (25+x^2)^{-6} \ dx[/tex]

we are to state the trigonometric substitution to be used to find the indefinite integral.

Suppose u is the variable and a is the constant

u = x

a = 5

So; (a² + x²)ⁿ

which is a trigonometric substitution for x = a tanθ

Then,

x(θ) = 5 tan θ

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of trigonometric substitution to calculate the indefinite integral, so we have that this is:

[tex]x(\theta) = 5 tan \theta[/tex]

Knowing that the indefinite integral corresponds to:

[tex]\int\limits {(25+x^2)^{-6}} \, dx[/tex]

we are to state the trigonometric substitution to be used to find the indefinite integral. Suppose u is the variable and a is the constant:

[tex]u = x\\a = 5\\(a^2 + x^2)^n[/tex]

Which is a trigonometric substitution for:

[tex]x = a tan\theta\\x(\theta) = 5 tan \theta[/tex]

flying against the wind, a jet travels 4600 miles in 5 hours. flying with the wind, the same jet travels 4200 miles in 3 hours. what is the rate of the jet in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Answer:

The rate of the jet in still wind is 1160 MPH and the rate of the wind is 240 MPH.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance equals rate times time (d = rt)

Against the wind, the rate is:

4600 = r * 5

r = 4600/5 = 920 MPH

With the wind, the rate is:

4200 = r * 3

r = 4200/3 = 1400 MPH

Let W be the rate of the wind in MPH. We know that:

(rate of the jet against the wind) + (rate of the wind) = (rate of the jet with the wind ) - (rate of the wind), so:

920 + W = 1400 - W

2W = 480

W = 240 MPH

And the speed of the jet in still air would be:

1400 - 240 = 1160 MPH

Answers

Answer:

H0 : p = 0.75  against    H1: p > 0.75  One tailed test.

Step-by-step explanation:

We state our null and alternative hypotheses as

H0 : p = 0.75  against    H1: p > 0.75  One tailed test.

In this case H0 is not defined as p≤ 0.75 because the acceptance and rejection regions cannot be set up. Therefore we take the exact value of H0 : p= 0.75.

The claim is that the probability of the workers getting their job through the internet is greater than 75% or 0.75.

As H0 is supposed to be less than we choose H1 to be greater than equality.

Apply sum of cubes formula:

a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²)

a = x

b = 4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Required

Approximate

Approximating to the nearest hundredth implies that, only to digits after the decimal point is needed

This is:

191._ _

The third digit after the decimal point will approximated using the approximation rule;

Since, the third digit after the decimal point (3) is not up to 5, it'll be approximated to 0 and added to the second digit (6)

So, we have:

191.5 _

The next digit is calculated as 6 + 0 = 6

Hence, the full approximated number is 191.56

Neal opened a savings account 11 years ago with a deposit of $2,335.69. The account has an interest rate of 4.3% compounded daily. How much interest has Neal earned? (3 points)

$1,375.75

Answers

Answer: $1,412.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to calculate the accumulated amount if P principal invested for t years at a rate of interest r that compounded daily is given by:-

[tex]A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{365})^{365t}[/tex]

Given: P= $2,335.69

r= 4.3%= 0.043

t= 11 years

Then,

[tex]A=2335.69(1+\dfrac{0.043}{365})^{365\times11}\\\\=2335.69(1+0.000117808219178)^{4015}\\\\=2335.69(1.000117808219178)^{4015}\\\\= 2335.69(1.6047566747)\\\\=3748.09044309\approx3748.21\\\\\Rightarrow\ A=\$3748.21[/tex]

Interest earned = A-P

= $3748.21- 2335.69.

= $1412.52

Hence, Neal earned $1,412.52 as interest.

Amount of money per lawn is:

$60/12= $5

Answer is amount per lawn is $5

Answer:

$5

or

$5 / 1 lawn

Step-by-step explanation:

The process is quite simple - especially since you already have half of the answer.  The question says money per lawn.  The creator of the problem gave away a lot of the answer.  They already tell us the rate.  Now all ou have to do is plug the numbers in:

Money per lawn

Money / lawns (The slash is used to represent per)

What is the money? $60. So plug that in:

$60 / lawns

How many lawns? 12.  Plug that in:

$60 / 12 lawns

Now, all you have to do is either simplify the fraction or divide the denominator by the numerator - whichever one you prefer.  In that case, the rate can be any of the following:

$5

$5 / 1 lawn
