The sides of a rhombus with angle of 60° are 6 inches. find the area of the rhombus. 9√3 in2 18√3 in2 36 in2
harina [27]

Drop a perpendicular from an obtuse vertex.

That makes a 30 - 60º right triangle, with

hypotenuse 6 and short leg 3. So the long leg,

which is the height of the rhombus, is 3√3 .

Since a rhombus is a parallelogram, its area

is base x height = 6 x 3√3 = 18√3 .

On one afternoon in a shoe warehouse, three large shipments of shoes arrived. The weights of the shipments were 1 ton 115 pounds
Goryan [66]

Alright, lets get started.

The weight of first shipment = 1 ton 115 pounds

As we know, 1 ton = 2000 pounds, so

So, the weight of first shipment = 2000 + 115 = 2115 pounds

The weight of second shipment = 1723 pounds 7 ounces

The weight of third shipment = 957 pounds 11 ounces

So, adding all three weights = 2115 pounds + 1723 pounds 7 ounces + 957 pounds 11 ounces

So, all three weights = 4795 pounds 18 ounces

As we know, 16 ounces = 1 pound, so

all three weights = 4795 pound 1 pound 2 ounces

All three weights = 4796 pounds 2 ounces

4796 could be wriiten as 4000 + 796

As we know, 2000 pound = 1 ton so

All three weight = 2 tons 796 pounds 2 ounces

So, the total weight of three shipments = 2 tons 796 pounds 2 ounces   :   Answer

The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: 387

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Standard deviation: \sigma=2.3

Margin of error : 0.15

Critical value for 80% confidence interval = 1.2816

Required minimum sample size : n=(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}\cdot \sigma}{E})^2

\\\\=(\dfrac{1.2816\times2.3}{0.15})^2\\\\=386.16966144\approx387

Hence, the minimum sample size required to estimate the mean usage of water = 387
