Upper A 4​-ft-tall fence runs parallel to the wall of a house at a distance of 8 ft. Find the length of the shortest ladder that

extends from the ground to the house without touching the fence. Assume the vertical wall of the house is 20 ft high and the horizontal ground extends 25 ft from the fence.

Answer:

Length of ladder = approximately 39 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formation is a right angle to and we are looking for the hypotenuse.

But first

The height = was of the house = 20ft

Total length = the 25ft extension+ the 8ft distance betwee the fence and the house

Total length= 25 +8 = 33ft

Length of the ladder = hypotenuse

Let length of the ladder be x

X² = 33² +20²

X² = 1089 + 400

X² = 1489

X= √1489

X= 38.59 ft

Length of ladder = approximately 39 ft

A circle is centered at the point -3 2 and passes through the point 1 and 5 the radius of the circle is blank units
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The radius of the circle is 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

centered point = (-3 , 2)

a point in the circle = (1,5)

To find the radius of circle we will use the circle equation

(x – h)² + (y – k)² = r²,

with the centre being at the point (h, k) and the radius being r.

Plug values in the equation

(1 – (-3))² + (5 – 2)² = r²

(1+3)² + (3)² = r²

4² + 3² = r²

25 = r²

r = √25

r = 5

If HJ= 7x-27 . Find the value of x
Alinara [238K]

we are given

HJ=7x-27

Since, we have to solve for x

so, we will isolate x on anyone side

step-1: Add both sides 27

HJ+27=7x-27+27

HJ+27=7x

step-2: Divide both sides by 7

HJ+27=7x

\frac{HJ+27}{7}= \frac{7x}{7}

now, we can simplify it

\frac{HJ+27}{7}= x

x=\frac{HJ+27}{7}................Answer

In an article in Statistics and Computing [""An Iterative Monte Carlo Method for Nonconjugate Bayesian Analysis"" (1991, pp. 119
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

a)

The dependent variable is

Y: length of a dugong

The explanatory variable is

X: age of a dugong

You need to estimate the linear regression of the length of the dugongs as a function of their age.

Using the given data I've estimated the regression using a statistic software:

The regression model is E(Yi)= α + βXi

The estimated model is ^Yi= a + bXi

Where a is the estimate of the intercept and b is the estimate of the slope:

a= 2.02

b= 0.03

And the estimate of the population variance of the error is Se²= 0.03

The estimated regression equation is ^Yi= 2.02 + 0.03Xi

b)

You have to estimate the length of a dugong when its age is 11 years using the model, for this all you have to do is replace X=11 in the regression line and calculate the corresponding ^Y value:

^Yi= 2.02 + 0.03*11= 2.35

The average length of an 11-year-old dugong should be 2.35.

I hope it helps!

Mike's closing costs will add up to 4 percent and he'll make a down payment of 20 percent on a house that costs $210,000. Over t
postnew [5]
<span>For the question "Mike's closing costs will add up to 4 percent and he'll make a down payment of 20 percent on a house that costs $210,000. Over the life of his loan, he will pay $197,040.76 in monthly payments. What is the total cost of his house?" To obtain the total cost of the house, we first obtain the amount he paid as the closing costs and the down payment he paid which we will add to the total amount paid in monthly payments. Closing cost = 4% of $210,000 = 0.04 x 210,000 = $8,400 Down payment = 20% of $210,000 = 0.2 x 210,000 = $42,000 Total monthly payments = $197,040.76 Total cost of the house = $8,400 + $42,000 + $197,040.76 = $247,440.76</span>
