Answer:

Explain why,on an uneven floor,a four legged stool will always wobble but a three legged stool will always be stable. Because a balance on two legs of a 3-legger would require the centre of gravity to be perfectly balanced between two legs i.e. along a plane, and this is highly unlikely.

A golden rectangle is 32cm long.The ratio of length to width is (1 + square root of 5) :2. What is the width of the rectangle in
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Width = 16(√5) - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the golden rectangle is 32 cm long.

Thus, length = 32 cm

We are also told that the ratio of the length to the width is; (1 + √5):2

Thus;

If a length of (1 + √5) yields a width of 2

Then, a length of 32 cm would yield a width of; (32 x 2)/(1 + √5)

So corresponding width = 64/(1 + √5)

We want to reduce this width to it's simplest radical form which means the denominator should have no square root.

Thus, let's multiply top and bottom by (1 - √5);

Width = 64 x (1 - √5)/[(1 + √5) x (1 - √5)]

Width = 64(1 - √5)/(1 - 5)

Width = 64(1 - √5)/(-4)

Width = -16(1 - √5)

Width = 16(√5 - 1)

Width = 16√5 - 1

Tickets to a school dance are sold for $10 each. The student council spent a total of $400 on set-up costs for the dance. The sc
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

P(t) = 10t - 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price of each ticket = $10

Cost of setting up the dance= $400

Profit = Revenue - cost

Revenue = price × quantity

Revenue that will maximize profit = 10t

where t= quantity of tickets that maximises profits

Cost = $400

Profit(t) = Revenue - cost

P(t)= 10t - 400

aniked [119]

Answer:

x = 37.5^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

The central angle of the sector representing rent expenses in the pie chart is found by simple rule of three:

x = \frac{Rs. 250}{Rs. 2400}\times 360^{\circ}

x = 37.5^{\circ}

The most economical proportion for a right circular cone is to have its height three times long as its base diameter. What later
defon

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  ∛(2500π)√37 m² ≈ 120.911 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

If the height is 3 times the diameter, it is 6 times the radius. Then the volume is ...

  V = 1/3πr²h

  V = 1/3πr²(6r) = 2πr³

For a volume of 100 m³, the radius is ...

  100 m³ = 2πr³

  r = ∛(50/π) m

The lateral area of the cone is computed from the slant height. For this cone, the slant height is found using the Pythagorean theorem:

  s² = r² +(6r)² = 37r²

  s = r√37

Then the lateral area is ...

  LA = πrs

  LA = π(∛(50/π) m)(∛(50/π) m)√37

  LA = ∛(2500π)√37 m² ≈ 120.911 m²

Pedro has created the function f(x)= 4x-3/2 to represent the number of assingments he has completed where x represents the numbe
Law Incorporation [45]
The given function is
f(x) = 4x - 3/2
where
f(x) = number of assignments completed
x =  number of weeks required to complete the assignments

We want to find f⁻¹ (30) as an estimate of the number of weeks required to complete 30 assignments.
The procedure is as follows:

1. Set y = f(x)
   y = 4x - 3/2

2. Exchange x and y
   x = 4y - 3/2

3. Solve for y
   4y = x + 3/2
   y = (x +3/2)/4

4. Set y equal to f⁻¹ (x)
  f⁻¹ (x) = (x + 3/2)/4

5. Find f⁻¹ (30)
  f⁻¹ (30) = (30 + 3/2)/4 = 63/8 = 8 (approxmately)

Answer:
Pedro needs about 8 weeks to complete 30 assignments.
