A teenage boy is 6 ft tall and casts a shadow of 8ft.What is the distance from the top of his head to the end of his shadow?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This image forms a special right triangle: 3-4-5. This represents the ratios of the sides.

Multiplying 3-4-5 by 2, you get 6-8-10. 10 is the hypotenuse (the answer you want) and the only number not listed in the problem.

Answer 2
The decimal format of this is 9.16515139

However converted to feet your looking at about 5 feet 2 inches

Which expression can be used to find the surface area of the following triangular prism?
5
3
10

Answers

Answer:

The answer is actually, "C"

Step-by-step explanation:

I mean to offence to the other person, but sadly I must prove them wrong.

Let's start by finding the area of the triangles.

Triangles:

Area = 1/2 · base · height= 1/2 · 4 · 3= 1/2 · 12= 6

There are two triangle faces with an area of 6 square units.

So, we add it twice.

Left rectangle:

Area = base · height= 3 · 10= 30

Center rectangle:

Area = base · height= 4 · 10= 40

Right rectangle:

Area = base · height= 5 · 10= 50

Finally, we add the area of them all.

Expression:

6 + 6 + 30 + 40 +50.

The following picture shows a number line.
Each hash on the number line represents one unit. Which of the following statements is true?

A. The sum of points A, B, C, and D is greater than zero.

B. The sum of points B and C is greater than point A.

C. The sum of points A and B is greater than point C.

D. The opposite of point A is less than point D.
Show work here.

Answers

Answer:

We conclude that only option B is true.

i.e. The sum of points B and C is greater than point A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the location of points on the left side of the number line

A=-6

B=-5

Given the location of points on the right side of the number line

C=3

D=4

Checking the statement A

The sum of points A, B, C, and D is greater than zero.

i.e. A+B+C+D > 0

-6 + -5 + 3 + 4 > 0

-11+7 > 0

-4 > 0

Thus,, this statement is false

Checking the statement B

The sum of points B and C is greater than point A

B+C>A

-5+3 > -6

-2 > -6

Thus, this statement is true.

Checking the statement C

The sum of points A and B is greater than point C

A+B > C

-6 + -5 > 3

-11 > 3

Thus, this statement is false

Checking the statement D

The opposite of point A is less than point D

As

A = -6

opposite of point A = -(-6)=6

The opposite of point A < D

                   6 < 4

Thus, this statement is false

Therefore, we conclude that only option B is true.

i.e. The sum of points B and C is greater than point A

Quadrilateral HALK is congruent to quadrilateral FORT. MZH = 60°.

m2L = 152°, and mzt = 42°. What is mzA?

mzA=

degrees

Answers

Answer: m∠A = 106°

Step-by-step explanation: Congruent Quadrilaterals are defined as a quadrilateral with equal corresponding sides and corresponding angles have the same value.

The figure below shows the two quadrilaterals and its corresponding angles.

As it is observed, m∠T corresponds to m∠K, which means they have the same value.

The sum of internal angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.

m∠A will be:

x + 60 +152 + 42 = 360

x = 360 - 254

x = 106

Angle m∠A at quadrilateral HALK measures 106°.

The Laplace High School basketball team has a probability of 1/2 of

winning a game, independent of previous games. The probability

that, in a sequence of 8 games, the team wins two of its last four

games and four of its eight games can be expressed in lowest

terms as 7. What is a + b?

Answers

Answer:

a= 1/2 and b= 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given probability can be expressed in the form of binomial expansion  where a= p and b= q

Therefore a= 1/2 and b= 1/2

For n= 8 trials the binomial expansion can be written as

[ p+q] ^n = [ 1/2+1/2]^8

=(1/2)^0(1/2)^8 +8C1(1/2)^7(1/2)+8C2(1/2)^6(1/2)^2+8C3(1/2)^5(1/2)^3+8C4(1/2)^4(1/2)^4+8C5(1/2)^3(1/2)^5+8C6(1/2)^2(1/2)^6+8C7(1/2)(1/2)^7+8C8(1/2)^0(1/2)^8

=

1(1/2)^0(1/2)^8 +8(1/2)^7(1/2)+28(1/2)^6(1/2)^2+56(1/2)^5(1/2)^3+70(1/2)^4(1/2)^4+56(1/2)^3(1/2)^5+28(1/2)^2(1/2)^6+8(1/2)(1/2)^7+1(1/2)^0(1/2)^8

=

1/(2)⁸ { 1+ 8+28+56+70+56+28+8+1}

= 1/(2)⁸ {256}

= 1

The total probability is always 1.

Also P+q= 1

1/2+1/2= 1
