Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A formula is a method that has been proven to work when solving specific types of problems.

Let’s explore some of those familiar formulas by looking at rectangles, squares, area and perimeter.

The perimeter of a figure is the distance around the figure. Perimeter is the sum of all of the sides in a square or rectangle. Since a rectangle has two sets of parallel sides, the formula for determining perimeter  of a rectangle is:

and

Let’s look at an example.

[Figure 2]

The rectangle above shows its dimensions. Find the perimeter.

First, substitute the values for the width  and the length  into the perimeter formula.

Next, complete the multiplication and addition to find the perimeter.

The answer is 42.

The perimeter of the rectangle is 42 inches.

Area is the amount of square units inside the figure. Area is found by multiplying the . The formula for finding the area of a rectangle is:

You can use the dimensions from the rectangle above to find the area of this rectangle.

First, fill the values for  and  into the formula for area.

Next, solve for the area by multiplying.

The answer is 108.

The area of the rectangle is .

Notice that the unit of measurement for area is squared. That is because you multiplied a unit measure times itself: . Area is always written in square units.

You can also find the perimeter and area of a square. Remember that a square has four equal sides given the symbol . You can use the following formula for finding the perimeter of a square:

Let’s look at an example.

A rectangle has a length of 12 feet and a perimeter of 72 feet. Write and solve an equation to determine the width of the rectangle.

First, substitute the values for the perimeter  and the length  into the perimeter formula.

Next, complete the multiplication.

Then, subtract 24 from both sides to get your variable alone on the right side.

Then, multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2 to isolate your variable.

The answer is 24.

The width of the rectangle is 24 feet.

Examples

Example 1

Earlier, you were given a problem about Raj and his garden fence.

He knows that the area of the land is 240 square feet, the length of one side is 15 feet, and needs to know the width of the land.

First, substitute the values for the area and the side length into the area formula.

Next, multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 15 in order to isolate the variable .

The answer is 16.

The width of Raj’s garden is 16 ft. Therefore the dimensions of the garden are 16 ft by 15 ft.

Example 2

A square has a perimeter of 196 inches. Determine the length of one side of the square.

First, substitute the value for the perimeter  into the perimeter formula.

Next, multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 4 to isolate your variable.

The answer is 49.

Example 3

Find the perimeter of the following square if the side length is 4.5 inches.

First, substitute the value for the side length into the perimeter formula.

Next, multiply by 4 to solve for the perimeter.

The answer is 18.

Example 4

Can you find the area of the square in Example 1?

First, substitute the value for the side length into the area formula.

Next, multiply to solve for the area.

The answer is 20.25.

The area of the square is .

Example 5

A square has an area of 144 sq. meters. What is the side length?

First, substitute the value for the area into the area formula.

Next, take the square root of the area to isolate . Remember that the opposite of square is square root.

The answer is 12.

At the beginning of the lesson, Jacob determined that there was a problem with the sail length measurements of 7.5 meters, 4.8 meters, and 2.5 meters. Explain how Jacob was able to determine there was a problem with the specifications of the triangular sail.

Answers

Answer:

Jacob was able to determine there was a problem with the specifications of the triangular sail because of the Pythagorean theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the triangular sail is a right triangle.

The Pythagorean theorem says: [tex]A^{2} + B^{2} = C^{2}[/tex]

If A = 4.8, B = 2.5, and C = 7.5, then [tex]4.8^{2} + 2.5^{2} = 7.5^{2}[/tex].

[tex]4.8^{2} + 2.5^{2} = 23.04 + 6.25 = 29.29[/tex]

[tex]7.5^{2} = 56.25[/tex]

In conclusion, [tex]29.29 \neq 56.25[/tex], so there is a problem with the sail.

Answers

According to the statistics presented in the bar graph of responders of four locations per 40 potential customers, the average number of places chosen per potential client is 2.5.

We are given;

Total number of potential customers =40

From the bar graph number of respondents are following;

At grocery stores = 40

At drugstores respondents = 32

At health food stores = 8

At big box stores = 20

So,

The average number = Total number of respondents / Total number of potential customers

The average number = (40 + 32 + 8 + 20) / 40

The average number = (100) / 40

The average number = 2.5

Thus, according to the statistics presented in the bar graph of responders of four locations per 40 potential customers, the average number of places chosen per potential client is 2.5.

For the given question.

Let 't' be the total points scored.

Alexa = 1/4 t.

Brittany = 2/7 t

Chelsea = 15

Let 'x' be the points scored by remaining 7 team.

Thus, the two variable equation becomes.

1/4 t +  2/7 t + 15 + x = t   .....eq 1

Where, x ≤ 14 ( for 7 terams)

Simplifying eq 1.

15 + x = 13/ 28 t

28x + 28 = 13 t

Now, t must be divisible by 28.

Let t = 28 u, u ≥ 0 and divisible by 28.

Thus,

x + 15 = 13u.

Then, u = 2( t = 56) has been the only candidates for which x = 11.

A quadrilateral with parallel sides that are equal to one another and four equal vertices is known as a rectangle. It is also known as an equiangular quadrilateral for this reason. Rectangles can also be referred to as parallelograms because their opposite sides are equal and parallel. An enclosed 2-D shape called a rectangle has four sides, four corners, and four right angles (90°). A rectangle has equal and parallel opposite sides.

an ant walks along a straight path. After traveling for 1 meter it stops, turns through an angle of 90 degrees in an anticlockwise direction and sets off in a straight line covering a distance of half a meter. Again, the ant turns through an angle of 90 degrees in an anticlockwise direction and sets off in a straight line covering a quarter of a meter. The ant continues in this manner indefinitely.

a) How many turns will the ant have made after covering a distance of 63/32 meters?

b)How far will the ant "eventually" travel?

Answers

The description of the motion of the ant which is a geometric series is as follows;

a) After covering 63/32 meters, the ant will have made 6 turns

b) The distance the ant will eventually travel is 2 meters

What is a geometric series?

Geometric series is an infinite sum of terms in which the ratio between consecutive terms is a constant.

The distances traveled by the ant is a geometric progression of the form;

aₙ = a·rⁿ⁻¹

The sum of the distance is given by the sum of the geometric progression as follow;

[tex]S_n = \dfrac{a\cdot \left(1 - r^n \right)}{(1 - r)}[/tex]

Where;

aₙ = The distance traveled in the nth turn

Sₙ = The sum of the distances

a = The first term = 1 meter

r = The value of the common ratio = 0.5 meter ÷ 1 meter = 0.5

a) The number of turns the ant will have made after covering a distance of 63/32 meters is therefore;

[tex]S_n =\dfrac{63}{32} = \dfrac{1\times \left(1 - 0.5^n \right)}{(1 - 0.5)}[/tex]

31.5 = 32 × (1 - 0.5ⁿ)

32 × 0.5ⁿ = 32 - 31.5 = 0.5

0.5ⁿ = 0.5 ÷ 32

n = ln(0.5 ÷ 32) ÷ ln(0.5) = 6

After covering a distance of 63/62 meters, the ant will have made 6 turns

b) The distance the ant travels eventually is given by the formula for the sum to infinity of a geometric progression as follows;

[tex]S_{\infty} = \dfrac{a}{1-r}[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]S_{\infty} = \dfrac{1}{1-0.5} = 2[/tex]

The distance the ant eventually travels is 2 meters

Answers

Out of the next 5 visitors, 2 will be asked to attempt the survey. (A) yes, because 2 out of 5 is equal to 40%.

It is given the probability that the randomly selected person is asked to participate in an online survey is 0.4

This means that there is a 40% chance of a visitor being asked to join the survey.

Probability of an event = no. of favorable outcomes / total no of outcomes

P(E) = n(E) / n

Therefore, if the number of visitors to the website is 5,

n = 5

P(E) = 0.4

Hence,

n(E) / 5 = 0.4

or, n(E) = 0.4  X  5

or, n(E) = 2

Therefore, out of the next 5 visitors, 2 will be asked to participate in the survey.
