Answer:

(i) The length of AH is 7.3784 m

(ii) The length of HC is 10.9389 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles ABC, BAC and ACB is 180º, hence, ACB = 180-90-56 = 34º. Note also that AH breaks the rectangle triangle ABC into 2 rectangle triangles AHB and AHC.

i) In AHB, AB is the hypotenuse, and the angle ABH is equal to ABC, hence it is 56º. AH is the opposite side of that angle and we know that

Sin(ABH) = opposite/hypotenuse = AH/8.9

Thus,

AH = 8.9*Sin(ABH) = 8.9*Sin(56º) = 7.3784 m

ii) In AHC, AH is also the opposite of the angle ACH (which meassures 34º), and HC is the adjacent of that angle (the hypotenuse is AC). As a result

Tan(ACH) = Tan(34º) = 0.6745 = opposite/adjacent = AH/HC = 7.3784/HC

Hence,

HC = 7.3785/0.6745 = 10.9389 m

Answer:

5985 can fit in the room!

Step-by-step explanation:

2) 6 * 6 = 36

3) 15000 - 36 = 14964

4) 14964 / 2.5 = 5985.6

5) But you can't fit almost half a person inside or create another whole person soo you round down to 5985

What is the balance on an amortized loan of $110,000 after the first payment if the interest rate is 5.5% with a monthly P&I

marishachu [46]

The interest due on the first payment is
.. I = Prt
.. I = 110,000*.055*(1/12)
.. I = 504.17

Then the decrease in principal resulting from the first payment is
.. 568.00 -504.17 = 63.83
and the new balance is
.. $110,000.00 -63.83 = $109,936.17

"On a map, 0.25 inches represents 1 mile. What is the area of a rectangle on the map that is 3.75 inches long and 2.25 inches wi

Vika [28.1K]

0.25 inches represents 1 mile

----------------------------------------------
Find 1 inch:
----------------------------------------------
1 inch represents 1 ÷ 0.25 miles
1 inch represents 4 miles

----------------------------------------------
Find 3.75 inches:
----------------------------------------------
1 inch represents 4 miles
3.75 inches represent 4 x 3.75 miles
3.75 inches represent 15 miles

----------------------------------------------
Find 2.25 inches:
----------------------------------------------
1 inch represents 4 miles
2.25 inches represent 4 x 2.25 miles
2.25 inches represent 9 miles

----------------------------------------------
Find Area:
----------------------------------------------
Area = Length x Width
Area = 15 x 9
Area = 135 miles²

----------------------------------------------
Answer: 135 miles²

Suppose that in a survey of 1,000 U.S. residents, 721 residents believed that the amount of violent television programming had i

Art [367]

Answer: 0.813

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event describes the number of residents believed that the amount of violent television programming had increased over the past 10 years.

& B be the event describes the number of residents believed that the amount of violent television programming had decreased over the past 10 years.

Given : n(A)=721 ; n(B)=454 ; n(A∩B)=362

We know that ,

$n(A\cup B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B)$

i.e. $n(A\cup B)=721+454-362=813$

Also, the total number of U.S. residents surveyed n(S)= 1,000

Then, the proportion of the 1,000 U.S. residents believed that either the amount of violent programming had increased or the overall quality of programming had decreased over the past 10 years will be :-

$P(A\cup B)=\dfrac{n(A\cup B)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{813}{1000}=0.813$

Hence, the required answer = 0.813
