if the lateral edge of a regular tetrahedron is 8 cm, then it's altitude is?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The altitude is 6.53 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular tetrahedron is a triangular pyramid having equilateral triangular faces, therefore we have;

Sides of the equilateral triangle = 8 cm

Given that the slant height, the edge of the tetrahedron, and half the base edge of the tetrahedron form a right triangle, we have;

The slant height, h = √(8² - (8/2)²) = √48 = 4×√3

The segment representing the altitude, H, of the tetrahedron forms a right triangle with the edge of the tetrahedron and 2/3×h

Therefore;

8² = H² + (2/3×4×√3)²

H² = 8² - (2/3×4×√3)²

H² = 64 - 64/3 = 128/3

The altitude H = √(128/3) = √6×8/3 = 6.53 cm.

cereal is on sale for $3.60 for a 9-ounce box. what is the price per ounce?

Answers

Answer:

$0.40 per oz

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the cereal is $3.60 for a 9 oz box

i.e

9 oz ----> costs $3.60

1 oz ----> costs $3.60 ÷ 9 = $0.40

hence the unit rate is $0.40 per oz

Answer:

0.40 per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks is to find the unit rate, or price per ounce.

To find this, we need to divide the price by the number of ounces.

price/ ounces

It costs $3.60 for 9 ounces of cereal.

$3.60/9 ounces

Divide $3.60 by 9 (3.60/9=0.4)

$0.4/ounce

It costs $0.40 per ounce of cereal.

Four lines extend from point K. The space between lines K J and K N is 58 degrees. The space between lines K N and K M is 61 degrees. The space between lines K M and K L is 61 degrees. Which statement must be true about the diagram? Point K is a midpoint of Line segment J L. mAngleJKN = One-halfmAngleJKM Ray KM is an angle bisector of AngleNKL. JK = One-halfKL

Answers

Answer:

Ray KM is an angle bisector of [tex]\angle NKL[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 4 lines that are extended from a point K.

Angle between KJ and KN is [tex]58^\circ[/tex] i.e. [tex]\angle JKN =[/tex] [tex]58^\circ[/tex]

Angle between KN and KM is [tex]61^\circ[/tex] i.e.  [tex]\angle NKM =[/tex] [tex]61^\circ[/tex].

Angle between KM and KL is [tex]61^\circ[/tex] i.e.  [tex]\angle MKL =[/tex] [tex]61^\circ[/tex]

Please refer to the attached image for the conditions and dimensions of angles given in the question statement.

Now, let us have a look at the options given:

1. Point K is a midpoint of Line segment JL

JL is not a straight line first of all, and secondly there is no condition given about the line segments.

So, it is incorrect.

2. [tex]m \angle JKN = \dfrac{1}{2}m \angle JKM[/tex]

[tex]\angle JKN =[/tex] [tex]58^\circ[/tex] and

[tex]m \angle JKM =58+61=139^\circ\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} m \angle JKM = 64.5^\circ[/tex]

So, it is also incorrect.

3. Ray KM is an angle bisector of [tex]\angle NKL[/tex].

Ray KM divides the [tex]\angle NKL[/tex] into two equal angles [tex]\angle NKM =[/tex] [tex]61^\circ[/tex] and [tex]\angle MKL =[/tex] [tex]61^\circ[/tex] so it is correct.

Determine the x intercept

To get the value of x intercept; we simply substitute 0 for y;

i.e. y = 0

[tex]2y-x=-6[/tex] becomes

P(X< ) 1-P(X> ) A softball pitcher has a 0.626 probability of throwing a strike for each curve ball pitch. If the softball pitcher throws 30 curve balls, what is the probability that no more than 16 of them are strikes? Fill in the blanks below to represent the probability

Answers

Answer:

19.49% probability that no more than 16 of them are strikes

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 30, p = 0.626[/tex]

So

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 30*0.626 = 18.78[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{30*0.626*0.374} = 2.65[/tex]

What is the probability that no more than 16 of them are strikes?

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \leq 16 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 16.5)[/tex], which is the pvalue of Z when X = 16.5. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{16.5 - 18.78}{2.65}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.86[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.86[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.1949

19.49% probability that no more than 16 of them are strikes

D. 0.52%
E 96 help ASAP plz
200

Answers

Answer:

A. 52% and B. 104/200

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, we first have to find how many pet owners own cats. As percentages are x/100, when we have x/200 we divide the numerator and denominator by 2 to bring the fraction to 48/100. (96/200 divided by 2 equals 48/100). Now that we have the percentage of pet owners that own cats (48%), we need to find how many do not own cats. To do so, we just subtract 100-48 to get 52. Then, we do the same to the fraction of 96/200. (200-96 = 104). This brings our answers to A. 52% and B. 104/200

The percentage of owners that do not own cat is 52%

What are percentages?

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. If we have to calculate percent of a number, divide the number by the whole and multiply by 100. Hence, the percentage means, a part per hundred. The word per cent means per 100. It is represented by the symbol “%”.

Given here, 96 out of 200 pet owners own cats then the owners who do not own cat are 104

Therefore the number of non cat owners in percentage terms is

= (104/200) ×100

= 52.5%

Hence, the answer is 52.5%

4x= 2y + 38; 2 - 3y=x

Simultaneous equation please help

Answers

Answer:

x = 59/7, y = -15/7

Step-by-step explanation:

4x= 2y + 38;

2 - 3y=x

We can substitute for x  in the first equation since the second equation is solved for x

4(2-3y) = 2y+38

Distribute

8 - 12y = 2y+38

Add 12y to each side

8-12y+12y = 2y+12y+38

8 = 14y+38

Subtract 38 from each side

-30 = 14y

Divide by 14

-30/14 = y

-15/7 = y

Now solve for x

2 - 3y = x

2 - 3*-15/7 = x

2 +45/7 = x

14/7 + 45/7 = x

How many cups did Ian drink altogether

Answers

Answer: she is 215m from her starting point

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram representing the situation is shown in the attached photo. Triangle ABC is formed with AC representing her distance from her starting point.

Angle B = 28 + 90 = 118°

To determine AC, we would apply the law of Cosines which is expressed as

a² = b² + c² - 2abCosA

Where a,b and c are the length of each side of the triangle and B is the angle corresponding to b(AC). Likening the expression to the given triangle, it becomes

AC² = AB² + BC² - 2(AB × BC)CosAC

AC² = 60² + 180² - 2(60 × 180)Cos118

AC² = 3600 + 32400 - 21600Cos118

AC² = 36000 - 21600(-0.46947156)

AC² = 36000 + 10140.59

AC² = 46140.59

AC = √46140.59

AC = 215 m
