Answer:

The correct option is E. 8

The value of h is 8 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Δ BAD ~ Δ CBD

AC = 20

DC = 4

∴ AD = AC - DC=20-4=16

To Find:

h = ?

Solution:

Δ BAD ~ Δ CBD      ................Given

If two triangles are similar then their sides are in proportion.

\frac{BD}{CD} =\frac{AD}{BD} =\frac{BA}{CB}\ \textrm{corresponding sides of similar triangles are in proportion}\\  

On substituting the given values we get

\dfrac{BD}{CD} =\dfrac{AD}{BD}

\dfrac{h}{4} =\dfrac{16}{h}\\\therefore h^{2}=64\\\therefore h=8\ unit

The value of h is 8 unit.

<span> 
it consists of a rectangle, dimensions  L = 4ft and W = 3ft = Ar = 4ft x 3ft = 12 ft^2

</span>then, you have one half of the area of the circle that has diameter  R = 3ft - radius will be r = 1.5ft the area of that half will be:

Ac = r^2 \pi/ 2
= (1.5 ft)^2 x 3.14 / 2
= 2.25 ft^2 x 3.4/2 
= 7.065 ft^2/ 2 
= 3.5325ft^2

A = Ar + Ac
A = 12ft^2 + 3.5325ft^2
A = 15.5325ft^2

<span>At the rate of $2 per square foot, the cost will be: 
$ 15.5325*2 = 31.07 </span>

The time it takes to transmit a file always depends on the file size. Suppose you transmitted 30 files, with the average size of
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Y = 0.009042 + 0.0002457X

Y = 0.1073 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given problem we have two variables: the transmission time and average size of file.

Y = transmission time

X = average file size

The linear regression model is given by

Y = a + bX

The slope b is given by

b = correlation coefficient*(SDy/SDx)

Where SDy is the standard deviation of average transmittance time and SDx is the standard deviation of average file size.

b = 0.86(0.01/35)

b = 0.0002457

The y-intercept a is given by

a = y - bx

a =  0.04 - (0.0002457)126

a = 0.04 - 0.030958

a = 0.009042

Therefore, the linear regression model is

Y = 0.009042 + 0.0002457X

Predict the time it will take to transmit a 400 Kbyte file.

Substitute X = 400 in the regression model

Y = 0.009042 + 0.0002457(400)

Y = 0.009042 + 0.09828

Y = 0.1073 seconds

Therefore, the predicted time to transmit a 400 Kbyte file is 0.1073 seconds.

Two pumps connected in parallel fail independently of one another on any given day. The probability that only the older pump wil
Bogdan [553]

Answer : Probability that the pumping system will fail on any given day = 0.005

Explanation:

Probability that only older pump fail = P(A) = 0.10

Probability that only newer pump fail = P(B) = 0.05

Since they are independent events ,

then the conditions will be

P(A∩B) = P(A). P(B)

             = 0.10 ×0.05

             =  0.005

Hence, the probability will fail on any given day = 0.005
