Answer:

This statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

You will use the mid point formula 15 times as there are 15 divisions needed to break it up into 16 intervals.

If you use the method 16 times, it will divide the line segment in 17 times.

The formula is given by:

$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )$

On sunday 1/16 people who visit were senior citizens, 3/16 were infants, 3/8 were children and 3/8 were adults, how many of each

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Out of total people visited the zoo on Sunday , 6.25% was senior citizen , 18.75% were infants , 35% were children and 35% were adult.

Step-by-step explanation:

let total number of people visited the group = x

so number of senior citizens = x × 1/16 = x/16

Percentage of senior citizens = (number of senior citizens ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100

= (x/16 ÷ x) × 100 = 100/16 = 6.25%

number of infants = 3/16 × x = 3x/16

Percentage of infants =(number of infants ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100 = (3x/16 ÷ x) × 100 = 300/16 = 18.75%

number of children = 3/8 × x = 3x/8

Percentage of children =(number of children ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100 = (3x/8 ÷ x) × 100 = 300/8 = 37.5%

number of adults = 3/8 × x = 3x/8

Percentage of adults =(number of adults ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100 = (3x/8 ÷ x) × 100 = 300/8 = 37.5%.

Hence we can conclude that Out of total people visited the zoo on Sunday , 6.25% was senior citizen , 18.75% were infants , 35% were children and 35% were adult.

A business buys invoice forms at a cost of $4.45 a box for the first 20 boxes, $4.00 a box for the next 25 boxes, and $3.75 a bo

Sergio039 [100]

So the first 20 boxes at 4.45 a piece will total 89.
The next 25 at 4 each will be 100.
Add those and you have 189 dollars, which is a spare of 45.
45/3.75 = 12 .
So the answer is 57

a guy wire makes a 67 degree angle with the ground. walking out 32 ft further grom the tower,the angle of elevation to the top o

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

39.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relation between angles and sides of a right triangle.

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

This lets us write two equations in two unknowns:

tan(67°) = AD/CD . . . . . . . . . . angle at guy point

tan(39°) = AD/(CD+32) . . . . . .angle 32' farther

Solving the first equation for CD and using that in the second equation, we can get an equation for AD, the height of the tower.

CD = AD/tan(67°)

tan(39°)(CD +32) = AD . . . . eliminate fractions in the second equation

tan(39°)(AD/tan(67°) +32) = AD

32·tan(39°) = AD(1 -tan(39°)/tan(67°)) . . . simplify, subtract left-side AD term

32·tan(39°)tan(67°)/(tan(67°) -tan(39°)) = AD . . . . divide by AD coefficient

AD ≈ 39.486 . . . . feet

The tower is about 39.5 feet high.
