43.82 feet 50.02 feet What is the difference between the two distances?

Answers

Answer 1

The difference between the distances 43.82 feet and 50.02 feet is 6.2 feet.

How to find the difference between two numbers?

Subtract the greatest from the smallest value of two numbers to determine the difference between them. The difference between the two numbers is the sum's product.

Given,

The two distances:

x = 43.82 feet

y = 50.02 feet

We have to determine the difference between x and y.

That is,

y – x. This is because y > x.

y – x = 50.02 feet – 43.82 feet = 6.2 feet.

Therefore,

The difference between the distances 43.82 feet and 50.02 feet is 6.2 feet.

Answers

The value of the division (6×1011)÷(3×1015) is the negative 4 power 2×10.

How can we interpret the division?

When 'a' is divided by 'b', then the result we get from the division is the part of 'a' that each one of 'b' items will get.

Division can be interpreted as an equally dividing the number that is being divided in total x parts, where x is the number of parts the given number is divided.

Thus,  [tex]a \div b[/tex] = a divided in b equal parts.

WE have been given that (6×10^11)÷(3×10^15) .

Simplify;

(6×10^11)÷(3×10^15)

To solve the exponent first;

10^11 - 15 = 10^-4

Now we get;

(6 )÷(3×10^-4)

2 ×10^4 = 2 ×10 ×10×10×10

Applying the exterior angle theorem, the value of s in the triangle is: 74.

How to Apply the Exterior Angle Theorem?

In the image shown above, the angles, s - 44° and s° are interior opposite angles to the exterior angle of the triangle that is given as s + 30°.

Based on the exterior angle theorem, the sum of s - 44° and s° is equal to s + 30°.

Therefore:

s - 44 + s = s + 30 [exterior angle theorem]

Combine like terms

2s - 44 = s + 30

2s - 44 - s = s + 30 - s [subtraction property of equality]

s - 44 = 30

s - 44 + 44 = 30 + 44 [addition property of equality]

s = 74

Therefore, applying the exterior angle theorem, the value of s in the triangle is: 74.

f(x)=6x+5 , g(x)=−f(x) , and h(x)=f(−x) .

Answers

The domain of the function f (x) = x2 + 6x + 5 over the function g(x) = x3 + x2 − 4x − 4 is {x ∈ ℝ| x ≠ −1, −2, 2}.

The main limiting issue with the domain this function is potentially picking an x-value that makes that denominator equal 0, because dividing by 0 is bad.

So, the domain will be all real numbers, except for those that make g(x)=0.

g(-1) = 0, g(-2)=0, and g(2) = 0, so -1, -2, and 2 must be excluded from the domain.

Your answer is {x ∈ ℝ| x ≠ −1, −2, 2}.

Therefore, we get that, the domain of the function f (x) = x2 + 6x + 5 over the function g(x) = x3 + x2 − 4x − 4 is {x ∈ ℝ| x ≠ −1, −2, 2}.

Geometrically, the Scalar triple product:

[tex]{\displaystyle \mathbf {a} \cdot (\mathbf {b} \times \mathbf {c} )} \mathbf{a}\cdot(\mathbf{b}\times \mathbf{c})[/tex]

is the (signed) volume of the parallelepiped defined by the three vectors given. Here, the parentheses may be omitted without causing ambiguity, since the dot product cannot be evaluated first. If it were, it would leave the cross product of a scalar and a vector, which is not defined.

Given three vectors, there is a product, called scalar triple product, that gives , the volume of the parallelepiped that has the three vectors as dimensions.

So,

Given : p(-2,1,0) , q(3,4,3), r(1,4,-1), s(3,6,4).

pq =  ( -2-3 ,1-4 ,0-3) = (-5,-3,-3)

pr= (-2-1, 1-4, 0+1) = (-3,-3,1)

ps= ( -2-3, 1-6, 0-4) = (-5,-5,-4)

pq = (-5  ,  -3  , -3)

pr = (-3,  -3,  1)

ps= (-5,  -5,  -4)

Similar triangles are triangles whose corresponding sides are in proportion to one another.

In most cases, one triangle is dilated to form the other triangle

What is dilation?

Dilation involves enlarging or reducing the side length of a shape to create another shape by a constant scale factor, where the scale factor does not equal one.

How to determine the side length of PR?

The corresponding triangles are given as:

PQR and PSQ

This means that

PQ corresponds to PS

PR corresponds to PQ

QR corresponds to QS

Where

PQ = 18

QR = 14

QS = 21

So, we have:

PR : QR = PQ : QS

This gives

PR : 14 = 18 : 21

Express as fraction

PR / 14 = 18 / 21

Multiply through by 14

PR = 14 * 18 / 21

Answers

A scale factor of 2 would be the perfect scale for the scale drawing.

How to interpret Scale Drawing?

We are given original dimensions of  tech fingerboard as;

Length = 100 mm

Width = 25 mm

Now, from conversions we know that;

1 inch = 25.4 mm

Since Giovanni wants to make a larger scale drawing on an 8 1/2 inch by 11-inch piece of paper, then we can say that;

11-inch = 25.4 * 11 = 279.4 mm

8 1/2 inch = 8 1/2 * 25.4 = 215.9 mm

Thus;

New Length/old length = 279.4/100 = 2.794

Since that is the maximum scale for the drawing paper, then we can say that something lesser like a scale factor of 2 would be the perfect scale for the scale drawing.

given values of median, mean, mode, first and third quartiles for the observations of a numeric feature, what insights can we gain into the statistical distribution of its observations?

Answers

Median, mean, mode, first and third quartiles describe a statistical distribution because these are the measures of central tendency and dispersion of a distribution.

Median, mode and mean are known as the measures of central tendency of a statistical distribution. Because these three can even represent the whole data and its properties. Mean, median and mode gives the central value around which the whole distribution lies or its representative value.

Mean: It gives the average value of the distribution. That is the Total value/ Total number of values.

Median: It is a positional average and it is the middle value of the observations in a distribution.

Mode: Mode is also a positional average which gives the most repeated or frequent observation from the distribution

Now the first and third quartiles are measures of dispersion. It gives the variation of data values from the central value. It gives an idea of the scattering of the distribution around the central value.

First quartile: If the n observations are arranged in ascending order, then the n/4th value is the first quartile.

Third Quartile: It is the 3n/4th value in the ordered n observations.

These two are used to measure the quartile deviation from the central value. If the dispersion is large, then the measures of central tendency cannot be a representative value of the distribution.

Prokaryotic cells We dump 8.8 million tons of plastic into oceans By: Seth Borenstein, Associated Press December 16, 2021 Each year about 8.8 million tons of plastic ends up in the world oceans. The quantity is much higher than previous estimates, according to a new study. It tracked marine debris from its source. That's the equivalent of five grocery bags full of plastic debris dotting each foot of coastline around the world. So says the study's lead author, Jenna Jambeck. She is an environment engineering professor at the University of Georgia. At the current rate, Jambeck projects that by 2025, the total accumulated plastic trash in the oceans will reach around 170 million tons. That's based on population trends and continued waste management disposal problems. But there may be some early signs of change, she said. More than half of the plastic waste that flows into the oceans comes from just five countries. They are China, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam and Sri Lanka. The U.S. is ranked No. 20. Europe and the U.S. are not mismanaging their collected waste. The plastic trash coming from those countries is due to litter, researchers said. China is responsible for 2.4 million tons of plastic that makes its way into the ocean. That's nearly 28 percent of the world total. The U.S. contributes 77,000 tons. That is less than 1 percent, according to the study published in the journal Science. This is mostly because developed countries have systems to trap and collect plastic waste, Jambeck said. "We need to wake up and see our waste," Jambeck said. "I think the problem in some ways has sort of snuck up around us." The amount of plastics estimated to be going into the water is equal to how much tuna is fished per year. So "we are taking out tuna and putting in plastic, said study co-author, Kara Lavendar Law. Nancy Wallace is head of the marine debris program for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. She said plastic waste in the water is eaten by sea life. It also collects ocean toxins. And, there's a clean-up cost and it affects tourism. Jambeck used World Bank statistics on 192 countries' waste streams to track and estimate plastic pollution from the source. She examined how much waste is generated and the percentage that reaches the oceans. Jambeck's estimates were for 2010 and ranged between 5 and 14 million tons of plastic. The middle scenario estimate is 8.8 million tons. Previous estimates were less than 1 million tons, based on samples. Scientists know that much can be hidden in the bottom of the ocean and in places researchers don't get to. Last year Andrs Czar of the University of Cadiz in Spain estimated the waste at about 35,000 tons. Cozar said his team acknowledged that "99 percent of the ocean's plastic is missing." 1. a.
