A carpenter builds a rectangular bookcase that is 37 inches long and 60 inches tall. the carpenter uses two braces along the diagonals to support the bookcase. what is the length of the one of the braces, to the nearest tenth of a inch?

Answers

Answer 1

The diagonal of the rectangle can be calculated by using the Pythagorean Theorem , because the diagonal and the two sides , length and width, of the rectangle , makes a right triangle .

Now we have the measure of length and width and we have to find the measure of diagonal

So according to the Pythagorean theorem

[tex] d^2 = a^2 +b^2 [/tex]

where , d is the diagonal , a is the length and b is the width

lets plug the values

[tex] d^2 = 37^2 +60^2 [/tex]

[tex] d^2 = 1369+3600 [/tex]

[tex] d^2 = 4969 [/tex]

Taking square root on both sides

d=70.49 Inches

d=70.5 inches


hence the length of one of the braces is 70.5 inches

Answers

Your answer choices are cut off. Only A and B are showing. Both A and B are true, so they are not the answer. A is true because the midsegment is always half that of the parallel side. Choice B is true because of similar triangles leads to congruent corresponding angles which means the sides are parallel.

Japan accounts for about 5.4% of the world's petroleum consumption. Write this percent as a fraction.

Answers


The answer is:   " [tex] \frac{27}{500} [/tex] "  .
________________________________________________________

5.4 % = 5.4 / 100 = 54/1000 = (54÷2) / (1000÷2) =  " [tex] \frac{27}{500} [/tex] "  .

OR:

5.4 % = 5.4 / 100 = 5.4 ÷ 100 = 0.054 = 54/1000 = (54÷2) / (1000÷2) =
 
    " [tex] \frac{27}{500} [/tex] " .
________________________________________________________

"The correct fraction representing Japan's petroleum consumption as a percentage of the world's total is [tex]\(\frac{5.4}{100}\).[/tex]

To express the given percentage as a fraction, one must divide the percentage by 100, since percentages are parts per hundred. T

hus, 5.4% can be written as a fraction by placing 5.4 over 100, which gives us [tex]\(\frac{5.4}{100}\)[/tex].

Finally, this fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2 in this case, yielding the simplified fraction [tex]\(\frac{27}{500}\).[/tex]

Please help me questions 9 and 10

Answers

Problem 9's answer is choice C) rotation then reflection
Problem 10's answer is choice B) 65 degrees

---------------------------------------------------------

Explanations:

For problem 9, we rotate 90 degrees clockwise to go from figure 1 to figure 2. Then we reflect over the x axis to go from figure 2 to figure 3.

------------

For problem 10, notice how
angle AEB = angle GEC
5x = 3x+10
5x-3x = 10
2x = 10
x = 5

If x = 5, then 
angle GEC = 3x+10
angle GEC = 3*5+10
angle GEC = 15+10
angle GEC = 25

So that means
angle FEG = 90 - (angle GEC)
angle FEG = 90 - 25
angle FEG = 65 degrees

Answer: y=4x+2

Answer: b) [tex]f(x)=4x+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given table :-

Input           4               5                7                8

Output        18              22              30              34

Let's check all the options

a) [tex]f(x)=5x-2[/tex]

At x= 4, [tex]f(4)=5(4)-2=18[/tex]

At x= 5 , [tex]f(5)=5(5)-2=25-2=23\neq22[/tex]  , thus it not the correct function.

b) [tex]f(x)=4x+2[/tex]

At x= 4 ,  [tex]f(4)=4(4)+2=18[/tex]

At x= 5 ,  [tex]f(5)=4(5)+2=22[/tex]

At x= 7 ,  [tex]f(7)=4(7)+2=30[/tex]

At x= 8 ,  [tex]f(8)=4(8)+2=34[/tex] , thus it is the function rule that  produces the output.

c) [tex]f(x)=3x+6[/tex]

At x= 4 ,  [tex]f(4)=3(4)+6=18[/tex]

At x= 5 ,  [tex]f(5)=3(5)+6=21\neq22[/tex]  , thus it not the correct function.

d)  [tex]f(x)=2x+10[/tex]

At x= 4 ,  [tex]f(4)=2(4)+10=18[/tex]

At x= 5 ,  [tex]f(5)=2(5)+10=20\neq22[/tex]  , thus it not the correct function.

Hence, the correct function rule that produces the output = b) [tex]f(x)=4x+2[/tex]

a collection of dimes and nickels is worth $8.40 there are 106 coins how many of each are there

Answers

There are 62 dimes and 44 nickels.

N + D = 106 (There are 106 coins in all.)
1 nickel = 5 cents.
1 dime = 10 cents.
5*N + 10*D = 840 ($8.40 = 840 cents)
N + D = 106 -------(1)
N = (106 - D)
5*N + 10*D = 840 ---------(2)
5*(106-D) + 10*D = 840
530 - 5*D + 10*D = 840
5*D = 840 - 530
5*D = 310
D = 310/5 = 62
Eq(1) N + D = 106
N + 62 = 106
N = 106 - 62
N = 44

Use the distributive property to simplify the expression. 8(3 + 4) = 24 +

Answers

Using the distributive property is done by multiplying the factor (outside the parentheses) to each term within it. In this case, 8(3 + 4), we multiply the 8 by 3, and then add it to the product of 8 x 4:
8(3 + 4) = 8 x 3 + 8 x 4 = 24 + 32
If we need to simplify further, this adds up to 56.
The answer is 8(3 + 4) = 24 + 32

kevin had 13 coins in his pocket. all of his coins are either dimes or quarters. when he emptied his pocket, kevin found that he had 2.05. how many dimes and quarters does he have?

Answers

5 quarters and 8 dimes = $2.05

Answer:

Kevin has 5 quarters and 8 dimes.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, a quarter is worth 0.25 dollars, while a dime is worth 0.10 dollars. As Kevin has 13 coins in his pocket which in sum make $2.05, and all of them are either dimes or quarters, in order to determine how many dimes and quarters does he have, we have to take into account that he's got an odd number of quarters, since the final amount of money sums $2.05, that is, it ends in 5.

Therefore, if he had 1 quarter and 12 dimes (0.25 + 12x0.10 = 1.45), he would have $1.45.

If he had 3 quarters and 10 dimes (0.25x3 + 10x0.10 = 1.75), he would have $1.75.

If he had 5 quarters ahd 8 dimes (0.25x5 + 8x0.10 = 2.05), he would have $2.05, so this is the correct option.

Calculate the resistance of a piece of aluminum wire with a diameter of 100 mils and a length of two miles, at 68°F. Hint: Be sure to first convert mils to cmils and use the K value for aluminum found in the reference. (Round the FINAL answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer: [tex]R = 16.83 \text{ ohms}[/tex]

Explanation:


The resistance of an aluminum wire is given by

[tex]R = \frac{\rho L}{A} [/tex]

where:

[tex]R = \text{ resistance of the wire} \\ \rho = \text{resistivity of the aluminum} = 2.65 \times 10^{-8} \text{ ohm-meters} \\ L = \text{length of the wire} = 2 \text{ miles} \\ A = \text{cross-sectional area of the wire} [/tex]

Since the resistivity is in ohm-meters, we need to convert the length to meters and the area to square meters. But we need to convert mils to cmils first to get the cross sectional area of the wire.

To convert mils to cmils, we get the square of the diameter of the circle in mils because 1 cmil (or circular mil) is the area of the circle whose diameter is 1 mil. So, since the diameter of the wire is 100 mils, the cross-sectional area of the wire in cmils is given by:

[tex]\text{Area in cmils = }d^2 = 100^2 = 10,000 = 10^4 \text{ cmils}[/tex]

Note that we convert the area in terms of scientific notation because the resistivity is expressed in scientific notation and it is easier to multiply very large and very small numbers if they are expressed in scientific notation.

Now, since [tex]1 \text{ cmil} = 5.067 \times 10^{-10} \text{ square meters}[/tex], the cross sectional area of the wire is equal to 

[tex]10^4 \text{ cmils} = (10^4 \text{ cmils} )\left ( \frac{5.067 \times 10^{-10} \text{ square meters}}{1\text{ cmil}} \right ) [/tex]
[tex]10^4 \text{ cmils} = 5.067 \times 10^{-6} \text{ square meters}[/tex]

Since 1 mile = 1,609.344 meters, 2 miles = 2 × 1,609.344 meters = 3,218.688 meters = [tex]3.218688 \times 10^3 \text{ meters}[/tex]. . 

Hence the resistance is given by

[tex]R = \frac{\rho L}{A} \\ R = \frac{(2.65 \times 10^{-8} \text{ ohm-meters}) (3.218688 \times 10^3 \text{ meters})}{5.067 \times 10^{-6} \text{ square meters}} \\ \boxed{R = 16.83 \text{ ohms}}[/tex]


 
Final answer:

This answer calculates the resistance of an aluminum wire of specific dimensions. It begins by determining the cross-sectional area of the wire, then uses a formula incorporating resistivity, length, and area to calculate resistance. The final resistance of the wire is approximately 0.037 Ohms.

Explanation:

To calculate the resistance of a piece of aluminum wire, we first need to figure out the cross-sectional area of the wire. As given, the diameter of the wire is 100 mils. To convert mils to cmils (circular mils), we square the diameter, thus 100^2 = 10,000 cmils is the cross-sectional area.

Next, we use the formula for resistance: R = ρL/A, where R is the resistance, ρ (Rho) is the resistivity of the material (aluminum, in this case), L is the length in feet, and A is the cross-sectional area in circular mils (cmils).

We need to convert the length from miles to feet (1 mile = 5,280 feet), so 2 miles = 10,560 feet. The resistivity of aluminum at 68°F is approximately 10.75 nanoOhms*meter, to convert this to Ohms*foot we multiply by 3.281, so ρ becomes approximately 35.28 nΩ/ft.

The resistance R can then be calculated as follows: R = ρL/A = (35.28 x 10^-9) x 10,560 / 10,000 = 0.037 Ohms, rounded to two decimal places.

There is a spinner with 14 equal areas, numbered 1 through 14. If the spinner is spun one time, what is the probability that the result is a multiple of 5 or a multiple of 2?

Answers

The probability that a spinner with 14 equal areas lands on a multiple of 5 or a multiple of 2 is 4/7, after identifying the unique numbers from 1 to 14 that fit the criteria and dividing by the total number of possible outcomes.

The student is asking about the probability of an event occurring after spinning a spinner with 14 equal areas numbered 1 through 14. Specifically, the question seeks the probability that the result is either a multiple of 5 or a multiple of 2 when the spinner is spun once.

To solve this, first identify the multiples of 5 and 2 between 1 and 14: for 5, the multiples are 5 and 10; for 2, the multiples are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14. Here, the number 10 is a multiple of both 5 and 2, so it should only be counted once. In total, there are 8 unique numbers that are multiples of 2 or 5 on the spinner. Since there are 14 possible outcomes, the probability is:

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes = 8 / 14 = 4/7.

Thus, the probability that the spinner lands on a multiple of 5 or a multiple of 2 is 4/7.
