A forest ranger wants to install a 1,500 CFM (cubic feet per minute) fan. A ranger station consists of a rectangular prism and a

rectangular pyramid. The base of the pyramid and prism is 10 ft by 8 ft. The height of the pyramid is 3 ft and the height of the prism is 8 ft. The ranger station requires one CFM per ft2. Will the fan provide enough airflow for the ranger station? Why or why not?

Answer:

Yes, fan will provide enough airflow in the ranger station.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ranger station consist of a rectangular pyramid and a rectangular prism.

So volume of air in ranger station = volume of prism + volume of a pyramid

Volume of a rectangular prism = Length×Width×height

= 10×8×8 = 640 ft³

Volume of the pyramid = \frac{1}{3}(\text{area of the base)(height)}

= \frac{1}{3}(10)(8)(3)

= 80 ft³

Total volume of the ranger station = 640 + 80 = 720 ft³

Since CFM has the airflow capacity of 1500 cubic feet per minute so one CFM will be sufficient for the volume of 720 ft³.

Sample response: <span>Yes, the fan will provide enough airflow. The volume of the ranger station is 720 cubic feet. The ranger station requires a 720 CFM fan. 1,500 CFM is greater than 720 CFM, so it will be enough airflow.</span>

In triangle △ABC, ∠ABC=90°, BH = altitude
Ainat [17]

Answer: The exact length of segment HC is sqrt(3) units

The approximate length is roughly 1.73205080756888 (round that however you need to)

==============================================

Work Shown:

Let x = length of HC

Since AH = 3*HC, this means AH = 3*x

Draw out the picture. This step is optional but helpful in my opinion. The drawing is attached below.

After adding in the altitude BH, we have three similar triangles. So we can form the proportion shown below to solve for x

HC/BH = BH/AH

HC/3 = 3/AH ... replace BH with 3

x/3 = 3/AH ... replace HC with x

x/3 = 3/(3x) ... replace AH with 3x

x/3 = 1/x ... reduce

x*x = 3*1 ... cross multiply

x^2 = 3

x = sqrt(3) ... which is shorthand for "square root"

HC = sqrt(3)

HC = 1.73205080756888 which is approximate

Lourdes is making a frame in the shape of a parallelogram. She adds diagonal braces to strengthen the frame. Parallelogram A B C
zimovet [89]

Answer:

60 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram ABCD is shown in attached diagram. The diagonals of the parallelogram bisect each other, so

AE = EC

BE = ED

Ib DE = 3y + 6 cm, BE = 5y - 10 cm, then

3y+6=5y-10\\ \\3y-5y=-10-6\\ \\-2y=-16\\ \\2y=16\\ \\y=8\ cm

Now, EC = 2y + 4, so

EC=2\cdot 8+4=16+4=20\ cm

Since AE = EC, then AE = 20 cm

The brace that connects points B and D has the length

BD=BE+ED=3y+6+5y-10=8y-4=8\cdot 8-4=64-4=60\ cm

The brace that connects points A and C has the length

AC=AE+EC=20+20=40\ cm

A group of three friends cycle from Llanfyllin to Vyrnwy at 12 km/h.
garik1379 [7]

The average speed for the journey from Llanfyllin to Bala is 14 km/h

Average speed is the ratio of total distance travelled to total time taken. Also, average speed can be given as the average of the different speeds.

Let d₁ represent the distance from Llanfyllin to Vyrnwy and t represent the time taken, since the speed is 12 km/h, hence:

12 = d₁/t

d₁ = 12t

Let d₂ represent the distance from Vyrnwy to bala and t represent the time taken. Since they spent the same time, since the speed is 16 km/h, hence:

16 = d₂/t

d₂ = 16t

Average speed = total distance/total time

Average speed = (d₁ + d₂) / (t + t)

Average speed = (12t + 16t) / 2t

Average speed = 28t / 2t

Average speed = 14 km/h

Hence their average speed for the journey from Llanfyllin to Bala is 14 km/h.

good job on increasing our team sales from 90 to 130 units per day.” wow i never thought that we could increase our sales by
artcher [175]

The sales was increased by 44.4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Lets do this cumulative
  • 90 of 10 % =  9  which is 99
  • 90 of 10 % = 9 which is 108
  • 90 of 10% = 9 which is 117
  • 90 of 10% = 9 which is 126
  • 90 of 4 % = 3.6 which is 129.6
  • 90 of 0.044% = 0.0396 which is 129.99
  • This comes to nearly 44.44 to be closer there was an increase.
  • Always rule 1 approximation use 50% of 90 if it is above 130.
  • Down it to 40% of 90 see if the sales is lower than 130.
  • It should always start with 50,40,30....10 percents.
  • Alternative should be 10,1 or decimals.
  • Approximation using decimals rounding up becomes simple.
