When one thing is ten times as large as another, it is said to be an order of magnitude larger. A hundred times larger is two orders of magnitude. A thousand is three orders of magnitude. By how many orders of magnitude is the empire state building taller than a chair seat? enter an integer.

Answers

Answer 1

The empire state building is taller than a chair seat by three orders of magnitude.

What are orders of magnitude?

Orders of magnitude refer to the classification based on the sizes of two objects against each other.

Orders of magnitude range in the power of 10 or 10ⁿ.

Data and Calculations:

Orders of Magnitude:

10x = 1 order of magnitude

100x = 2nd order of magnitude

1000x = 3rd order of magnitude

Empire State Building = 1,500 feet

Chair seat = 1.5 feet

Order of magnitude = 1,000x (1,500/1.5)

Thus, the Empire State Building is about a thousand times taller than a chair seat or three orders of magnitude.

Julio is paid 1.3 times his normal hourly rate for each hour he works over 29 hours in a week. last week he worked 44 hours and earned $456.32

Answers

The hourly rate is $9.40 per hour.

How to calculate the hourly rate?

It should be noted that in this case, Julio works for 44 hours which mean 15 hours more than 29 hours.

He gets 1.3 times rate for this 15 hours and normal rate for the first 29 hours. Then the salary he would get should be: 29x + 1.3x(15)= 29x + 19.5x= 48.5x

Julio gets $456.32 which was 48.5 times of his hourly rate. The hourly rate would be:

= $456.32 /48.5

= $9.40/hour

large pies cost $5, and small pies cost $2. if 45 pies were sold for $120, how many small pies were sold ?

Answers

Answer:

35 small pies

Step-by-step explanation:

Framing system of linear equations and solving:

  Let the number of large pies be 'l' and

        The number of small pies be 's'.

Total pies sold = 45

⇒  l + s  = 45  ------------(I)

         l = 45 - s  -------(II)

Cost of 45 pies = $120

         Cost of 1 large pie = $5

         Cost of 'l' large pies = 5*l = 5l

    Cost of 1 small pie = $2

   Cost of 's' small pie = 2*s = 2s

         5l + 2s  = 120 --------------(III)

Solving : substitution method

Substitute l = 45 -s in equation (III)

         5*(45 - s) + 2s = 120

       5*45 - 5*s + 2s = 120

        225 - 5s + 2s  = 120   {Combine like terms}

               225 - 3s   = 120

                      -3s     = 120 - 225    {Subtract 225 from both sides}

                           -3s = -105

                              s = -105 ÷ (-3)    {Divide both sides by (-3)}

                             s = 35

Substitute s = 35 in equation (II),

     l = 45 - s

       = 45 - 35

    l = 10

            [tex]\sf \boxed{\text{\bf 35 small pies were sold}}[/tex]

A stack of one dozen cookies with diameter of 5in. exactly fits in a cylindrical container of volume 176.715 in^3. which is the thickness of each cookie?

Answers

The thickness of each cookie is 0.75 inch.

The cookies are in cylindrical container, hence, the shape of cookies will also be cylindrical. Now, the volume of cylinder is given by the formula : V = πr²h, where V refers to volume, r refers to radius and h represents height.

So, volume of 12 cookies will be equal to the cylindrical container.

Radius of cookies = Diameter÷2

Radius of cookies = 5÷2

Radius of cookies = 2.5 inches

Taking π as 3.14

Volume of a stack of cookies = 3.14×2.5²×h

Volume of a stack of cookies = 19.625h

Relating both the volumes to find the value of h

19.625h = 176.715

h = 176.715 ÷ 19.625

Performing division to find the height

h = 9 inches

So, height of 12 cookies is 9 inches

Height of 1 cookie = 9 ÷ 12

Height of 1 cookie = 0.75 inch

Thus, the thickness of each cookie is 0.75 inch.

First, let's define the possible angles that we have here:

Obtuse: With a measure larger than 90° and smaller than 180°Acute: With a measure between 0° and 90°Right: With a measure of 90°Straight: With a measure of 180°.

Notice that the angles HML and LMK should add up to 180°, then we can write:

HML + LMK = 180°

132° + LMK = 180°

LMK = 180° - 132° = 48°

Now we can see that:

∠JML = ∠JMK + ∠LMK

∠JML = 41° + 48° = 89°

So the angle measures less than 90°, thus, the correct classification is acute.

Since the slope is undefined, that means it will be a vertical line.  The equation of a vertical line is:  x = h, where h is the x-value/coordinate it runs through.  Based on your given point (1, 3), the x-coordinate is 1, so that makes the equation of your line x = 1.

Members of a softball team raised $1943.50 to go to a tournament. they rented a bus for $1148.50 and budgeted $53 per player for meals. write and solve an equation which can be used to determine x, the number of players the team can bring to the tournament.

Answers

The number of players the team can bring to the tournament are 15

Firstly we need to form the equation. The components of equation based on given information are as follows -

Total amount raised by softball team = Cost of bus + Cost of meal × number of players

Let the number of players be represented with x.

1943.50 = 1148.50 + 53×x

Rewriting the equation

53x = 1943.50 - 1148.50

Performing subtraction to Right Hand Side of the equation

53x = 795

Shifting 75 to Right Hand Side of the equation

x = 795 ÷ 53

Performing division at Right Hand Side of the equation

x = 15

Hence, 15 players the team can bring to the tournament.

let v = (2, 3, 1), w = (1, 1, 1), and 3u + 2v 4w = (1, 2, 3). find (a) the vector u (b) the linear combination: 2u 3v + 5w

Answers

The vector u is  [tex]\frac{-7}{3} i -\frac{8}{3}j -k[/tex].

The linear combination 2u + 3v + 5w  is 19/3 i + 17/3 j + 6k.

According to the given question.

v = (2, 3, 1)

w = (1, 1, 1)

And

3u + 2v + 4w = (1, 2, 3)

From,

v = (2, 3, 1)

⇒ v = 2i + 3j + 1k

w = (1, 1, 1)

⇒ w = i + j + j

a). Let vector u be xi + yj + zk

Here,

3u + 2v + 4w = (1, 2, 3)

⇒ 3u + 2v + 4w = i + 2j + 3k

⇒ 3(xi + yj + zk) + 2(2i + 3j + k) + 4(i + j +k) = i + 2j + 3k

⇒ 3xi + 3yj + 3zk + 4i + 6j + 2k + 4i + 4j + 4k = i + 2j + 3k

⇒3xi + 3yj + 3zk + 8i + 10j + 6k = i + 2j + 3k

⇒ 3xi + 3yj + 3zk  = i + 2j + 3k - 8i -10j -6k

⇒ 3xi + 3yj + 3zk = -7i -8j -3k

⇒ xi + yj + zk = (1/3)(-7i -8j-3k)

⇒ xi + yj + zk = [tex]\frac{-7}{3} i -\frac{8}{3}j -k[/tex]

b). The linear combination

2u + 3v + 5w

= 2(-7/3i -8/3j - k ) + 3(2i + 3j + k) + 5(i + j + k)

= -14/3 i -16/3j -2k + 6i + 6j + 3k + 5i + 5j + 5k

For Exercises 17 And 18, Find The Acute Angle Between The Given Lines By Using Vectors Parallel To The Lines.

y = x , y = 2 x + 3

The acute angle between the lines y = x and y = 2 x + 3 is 18.4349°.

We are given the lines:

y = x

y = 2 x + 3

The formula for finding the angles between two vectors is given by:

cos θ = u · v / | u | | v|

We know that (0,0) and (1, 1) lies on the line y = x.

Now, vector u for the line y = x will be:

u = (1,1) - (0,0) = {1, 1}

(0,3 ) and (1, 5) lies on the line y = 2 x + 3

Similarly, vector v will be equal to:

v = (1, 5) - (0, 3) = {1, 2}

cos θ = {1, 1} · {1, 2} / √1 + 1 √1 + 4

cos θ = 1 + 2 / √10

cos θ = 3 / √10

θ = cos⁻¹ ( 3 / √10)

θ = 18.4349°

in function notation, we get that the transformed function is:

g(x) = -2*f(x - 10) + 800

How to identify the transformation?

Here the parent function is:

f(x) = x^2

And the transformed function is the one graphed in the lower right side of the given image.

Notice that the y-intercept of the transformed function is y = 600.

The x-intercepts are x = -10 and x = 30

Then the polynomial is something like:

y = a*(x + 10)*(x - 30)

Using the fact that the y-intercept is y = 600, then:

600 = a*(0 + 10)*(0 - 30) = a*-300

600/-300 = a = -2

The transformed function is:

g(x) = -2*(x + 10)*(x - 30)

Expanding that:

g(x) = -2( x^2 + 10x - 30x - 300)

Completing squares we get:

g(x) = -2*(  x^2 - 20x - 300)

      = -2*(x^2 - 2*10*x - 300)

Now we can add and subtract 100, so we get:

-2*(x^2 - 2*10*x - 300 + 100 - 100)

-2*(  (x - 10)^2 - 400)

Finally, expanding that:

g(x) = -2*(x - 10)^2 + 800

Writing it in function notation, we get that the transformed function is:

g(x) = -2*f(x - 10) + 800

Consumer affairs investigator records the repair cost for 10 randomly selected VCRs. A sample mean of $72.82 and standard deviation of $24.17 are subsequently computed. Determine the 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the VCRs. Assume the population is approximately normal. Construct the 90% confidence interval. Round your answer to two decimal places.

We get that the critical value of the 90 % confidence interval is 1.833 and the interval is (58.81, 86.83).

We are given that the number of VCRs are 10.

So, we get that:

Sample size = n = 10

Now, we get the degree of freedom as:

d o f = n - 1

d o f = 10 - 1

d o f = 9

For 90% confidence interval , critical value will be:

t (0.10, 9) = 1.833

Lower limit of 90% confidence interval will be:

Lower interval  = Mean - t (0.10,9) × s / √n

= 72.82-1.833 × 24.17 /√10

= 58.81

Upper limit of 90% confidence interval will be:

Upper interval = Mean + t (0.10,9) × s /√n

= 72.82 + 1.833 × 24.17/√10

= 86.83

Therefore, we get that the critical value of the 90 % confidence interval is 1.833 and the interval is (58.81, 86.83).

The value of A + H is 25 for the given sequence.

What is a series?

A sequence's series is the total number of terms in the sequence.

A series follows some pattern for example if you take data set of natural numbers then there will be a sequence of that data and something will be due to that we can form that series.

Given that sum of any three consecutive terms is 30

Since c = 5

So a + b + c = 30

a + b = 25

⇒ (a+b)+(c+d+e)+(f+g+h)

⇒ 25 + 30 + 30 = 85

Now,

a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h = 85

a + h +(b+c+d)+(e+f+g) = 85

a + h + 30 + 30 = 85

a + h = 25

Now what is the net displacement at a point on the string where two pulses are crossing? Choose your answer from the same possibilities as in part (i).
