Weiling answered all the questions and scored a totał of 140 marks for the quiz. How many questions did she answer correctiy?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Right answer = 52

Wrong answers = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Every correct answer = + 3

Every wrong answer = - 2

Number of correct answers = x

Number of wrong answers = y

x + y = 60 - - - (1)

3x - 2y = 140 - - - (2)

From (1) :

x = 60 - y

Put x = 60 - y into (2)

3(60 - y) - 2y = 140

180 - 3y - 2y = 140

180 - 5y = 140

-5y = 140 - 180

-5y = - 40

y = 8

x = 60 - y

x = 60 - 8

x = 52

Right answer = 52

Wrong answers = 8

Bella leans a 20-foot ladder against a wall so that it forms an angle of 76° with the ground. What’s the horizontal distance between the base of the ladder and the wall? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

4.8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the cosine ratio, since we are given the length of the hypotenuse (the ladder) and are asked to find the horizontal distance between it and the ground.

Let x represent the horizontal distance (the adjacent leg)

cosine θ = adjacent / hypotenuse

cosine 76° = x / 20

(20)(cosine 76°) = x

4.8 = x

So, the horizontal distance is approximately 4.8 feet

A rhino can run 28 miles per hour. What is that speed in feet per second, to the nearest whole number?

Answers

Answer:

A rhino runs at a speed of about 28 miles per hour.

We need to determine the speed in feet per second.

Converting miles to feet:

The miles can be converted to feet by multiplying 5280 with 28 miles per hour.

Thus, we have;

28 x 5280 = 14784028 × 5280 = 147840

Thus, the speed of the rhino in feet per hour is 147840

Converting hours to seconds:

The hours can be converted into seconds by dividing 147840 by 3600 (Because an hour has 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour)

Thus, we get;

Speed=\frac{147840}{3600}Speed=

3600

147840

Speed = 41.066667Speed=41.066667

Rounding off to the nearest whole number, we get;

Speed = 41

Therefore, the speed of the rhino is 41 feet per second.

Which of the following expressions represents the distance between -3.9 and -4.7

Answers

Answer:

None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance is the difference between two positions. That is x1- x2  Since both numbers were negative, you would want the absolute value of one plus the other, because subtracting a negative results in a positive. For this example the distance would look more like this:

Convert the following 4.5 hours Into Second- ( Soin 24​

Answers

Answer: 16,200 Seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Data: 4.5 hours(h)=x seconds(s)

Step One, Convert Hours Into Minutes

4.5h=4h and 30 minutes(m)

1h=60mx4=240m+30=270m

Reason: Since to convert to seconds, minutes are needed, you have to convert everything to minutes. And with 60 minutes in an hour you have to multiply 60 by 4 to get 240 and add 30 minutes to it(since it's 4.5 hours) to find ourselves at 270 minutes.

Step two, Convert Minutes Into Seconds

1m=60s

270mx60=16,200s

Reason: Since we are ultimately trying to get 4.5 hours into seconds, we have to convert the minutes we have into seconds by multiplying 270 minutes by 60(since 60 seconds are in a minute) to get our final answer of 16,200 seconds.

Answers

Answer:  B) 35 degrees

Explanation:

Angles 4 and 8 are corresponding angles since they are both in the southwest corner of their respective 4 corner configuration.

Corresponding angles are congruent when we have parallel lines like this.

Set the expressions equal to each other and solve for x

angle 4 = angle 8

x+20 = 2x+5

x-2x = 5-20

-x = -15

x = 15

Use this x value to find the two angles to help confirm we have the correct x value, and to finish up to answer the question.

angle 4 = x+20 = 15+20 = 35angle 8 = 2x+5 = 2(15)+5 = 30+5 = 35

So that's why the answer is B) 35 degrees

A 4 metre ladder is placed against a vertical wall.
The base of the ladder is 1.5 metres from the base of the wall.

Answers

Answer:

Original position: base is 1.5 meters away from the wall and the vertical distance from the top end to the ground let it be y and length of the ladder be L.

Step-by-step explanation:

By pythagorean theorem, L^2=y^2+(1.5)^2=y^2+2.25 Eq1.

Final position: base is 2 meters away, and the vertical distance from top end to the ground is y - 0.25 because it falls down the wall 0.25 meters and length of the ladder is also L.

By pythagorean theorem, L^2=(y -0.25)^2+(2)^2=y^2–0.5y+ 0.0625+4=y^2–0.5y+4.0625 Eq 2.

Equating both Eq 1 and Eq 2: y^2+2.25=y^2–0.5y+4.0625

y^2-y^2+0.5y+2.25–4.0625=0

0.5y- 1.8125=0

0.5y=1.8125

y=1.8125/0.5= 3.625

Using Eq 1: L^2=(3.625)^2+2.25=15.390625, L=(15.390625)^1/2= 3.92 meters length of ladder

Using Eq 2: L^2=(3.625)^2–0.5(3.625)+4.0625

L^2=13.140625–0.90625+4.0615=15.390625

L= (15.390625)^1/2= 3.92 meters length of ladder

you have some marbles. when you make a shape of an equilateral triangle, you either have 5 extra, or you need 10 more to complete the shape, how many marbles do you have? how long is one side of your triangle?
I'm giving brainliest to correct answer!

Answers

Answer:

110 marbles

side 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw triangles using marbles as the sides.

If the side is 2 marbles long, the triangle uses 3 marbles. 1 + 2 = 3

If the side is 3 marbles long, the triangle uses 6 marbles. 1 + 2 + 3 = 6

If the side is 4 marbles long, the triangle uses 10 marbles. 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10

If the side is n marbles long, the triangle uses n(n + 1)/2 marbles.

These numbers are called triangular numbers.

We are looking for the side, n.

n(n + 1)/2 + 5 = (n + 1)(n + 2)/2 - 10

n^2 + n + 10 = n^2 + 3n + 2 - 20

n + 10 = 3n - 18

-n = -14

n = 14

For n = 14

n(n + 1)/2 =

= 14(15)/2

= 105

For n = 15

n(n + 1)/2 =

= 15(16)/2

= 120

105 + 5 = 120 - 10

You have 110 marbles. If you had 5 fewer, 105, you'd have a triangle with sides 14. If you had 10 more, 120, you'd have a triangle with sides 15. Since you have 110, you have 5 too many for side 14 and 10 too few for side 15.

The sides of the triangle is 14.

plz solve this question fast as soon as possible with solution.

Answers

Answer:

Angle a = 80°, Angle b = 55°, Angle c = 45°, Angle d = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the measure of Angle a, we add 55 and 45, then subtract the sum from 180.

180 - 100 = 80

Angle a is 80°.

Then, we solve for Angle b. Line segment CD is congruent to Line AB, so Angle b is congruent to 55°.

After that, we find Angle c. Line segment AC is congruent to Line segment BD, so Angle c is congruent to 45°.

Lastly, we solve for Angle d using the same method we used for Angle b and Angle c. Angle d is congruent to Angle a, so it measures 80°.

So, Angle a = 80°, Angle b = 55°, Angle c = 45°, Angle d = 80°.
