Area of Mr. Jones yard = 40 x 65 = 2600 square feet.

Area of neighbors yard = 50 x 80 = 4000 square feet.

Set up a ratio:

2600/52 = 4000/x

Cross multiply:

2600x = 52 x 4000

Simplify:

2600x = 208000

Divide both sides by 2600:

X = 80

The answer is B. $80

The feet of a commemorative parabolic steel arch 100m high are 200m apart. Determine whether the focus of the arch is above or b
Neko [114]
<span>First of all, there should be coherence for the units of measurement -- either they are all meters or they are all ft. I would assume they are all ft. The correct answer is 75 ft above. T The explanation is the following: suppose the ground level is the x-axis, the 2 feet of the arch lie respectively on (0,0) and (100,0) on the ground level. Since the arch is 100ft high, the vertex of the parabola will be the point (100,100). Thus, we can find the equation describing the parabola by putting the three points we know in a system and we find that the equation of the parabola is y=(-1/100)x^2+2 To find the focus F, we apply the formula for the focus of a vertical axis parabola, i.e. F(-b/2a;(1-b^2+4ac)/4a). By substituting a=-1/100, b=2 and c=0 into the formula, we find that the coordinates of the focus F are (100,75). So we conclude that the focus lies 75ft above ground.</span>

A tile mosaic in the shape of a right triangle is used as the corner for a rectangular pathway. The hypotenuse of the mosaic is
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The lengths of the sides are 2.2 ft and 4.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

a -----> the length of one side of the mosaic

b ----> the length of the other side of the mosaic

c ----> the hypotenuse of the mosaic

we know that

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2} -----> equation A

we have

a=2b -----> equation B

c=5\ ft -----> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for b

5^{2}=(2b)^{2}+b^{2}

25=5b^{2}

b=\sqrt{5}=2.2\ ft

Find the value of a

a=2b ------> a=2\sqrt{5}=4.5\ ft

therefore

The lengths of the sides are 2.2 ft and 4.5 ft

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

We know that In 1990, the mean duration of long-distance telephone calls originating in one town was 7.2 minutes. And we want to test if the mean duration of long-distance phone calls has changed from the 1990 mean of 7.2 minutes (alternative hypothesis) and the complement rule would represent the null hypothesis.

The correct system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: \mu =7.2

Alternative hypothesis: \mu \neq 7.2

So then the best option for this case would be:

H0: μ = 7.2 minutes Ha: μ ≠ 7.2 minutes

Alternative hypothesis: \mu \neq 7.2

So then the best option for this case would be:

H0: μ = 7.2 minutes Ha: μ ≠ 7.2 minutes

And in order to test the hypothesis we can use a one sample t test or z test depending if we know the population deviation or not
