In the 2004 Summer Olympics, Adam van Koeverden of Oakville, Ontario, won two medals. He won the gold medal in the men’s 500 m kayak race, with a time of 1 min 37.9 s. He also won the bronze medal in the 1000 m race, with a time of 3 min 28.2 s. In which race did he row with greater speed?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 500 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he won the gold medal in the men’s 500 m kayak race, with a time of 1 min 37.9 s, the speed will be:

= Distance/Time

= 500m/1 min 37.9s

= 500m/97.9s

= 5.11m/s

Since he also won the bronze medal in the 1000 m race, with a time of 3 min 28.2s, the speed will be:

= Distance/Time

= 1000/3 min 28.2s

= 1000m/208.2s

= 4.80m/s

Therefore, he rowed with greater speed in the 500 meters.

Note that 60seconds = 1 minute

Out of 18 people in a room, 2 have red hair. What is the probability that a person picked at random from the room does NOT have red hair?
Give an explanation plz:)​

Answers

Answer :

Total number of people in the room = 18

Number of people with red hair = 2

Number of people not with red hair = 18 - 2 = 16

Probability of picking a person who doesn't have red hair = [tex]\sf\dfrac{Number\:of\:favourable\:outcomes}{Total\:outcomes}[/tex]

Probability = 16/18

Reduce the fraction with 2

Probability = 8/9

Answer:

[tex]\implies\boxed{\red{\sf P( not \ having\ red\ hair)=\dfrac{ 8}{9}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

There are 18 people in the room .Two of them have Red hair.

And we need to find the probability that a person picked at random from the room does not have red hair . So for that firstly let us find how many people do not have red hair.

According to Question :-

[tex]\implies n_{(red)}+ n_{(not\ red)}= 18 \\\\\implies 2 + n_{(not\ red)}= 18 \\\\\implies n_{(not\ red)}= 18 -2 =\boxed{\red{16}}[/tex]

Hence the probability is :-

[tex]\implies P( not \ having\ red\ hair)=\dfrac{ n_{(favourable\ outcomes)}}{n_{(possible\ outcomes)}} \\\\\implies P( not \ having\ red\ hair)=\dfrac{ 16}{18} \\\\\implies\boxed{P( not \ having\ red\ hair)=\dfrac{ 8}{9}}[/tex]

Hence the required probability is 8/9 .

Practice 4b
In the diagram, PQRS is a rectangular sloping surface, PQTU is a rectangle on horizontal ground and RI and
SU are vertical lines. PQ = SR=UT = 45 cm, QR = PS = 32 cm and angle RQT= 38º.

Calculate
PR,
(b) RT, and
(c) angle RPT

Answers

Answer:

(a) PR = 55.2 cm

(b) RT = 19.7 cm

(c) <RPT = [tex]20.8^{o}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) to determine the value of PR, apply the Pythagoras theorem to PQR.

PQ = 45, and SP = QR = 32. So that;

[tex]/hyp/^{2}[/tex] = [tex]/Adj 1/^{2}[/tex] + [tex]/Adj 2/^{2}[/tex]

[tex]/PR/^{2}[/tex] = [tex]45^{2}[/tex] + [tex]32^{2}[/tex]

          = 2025 + 1024

          = 3049

PR = [tex]\sqrt{3049}[/tex]

     = 55.218

PR = 55.2 cm

(b) To determine RT, apply the appropriate trigonometric function to QRT.

Let RT be represented by x, so that;

Sin [tex]38^{o}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{32}[/tex]

x = 32 * Sin [tex]38^{o}[/tex]

  = 32 * 0.6157

x = 19.7024

RT = 19.7 cm

(c) To determine <RPT, let the angle be represented by θ.

Sin θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

        = [tex]\frac{RT}{PR}[/tex]

Sin θ = [tex]\frac{19.7024}{55.218}[/tex]

         = 0.3568

θ = [tex]Sin^{-1}[/tex] 0.35568

  = [tex]20.84^{o}[/tex]

Thus, <RPT = [tex]20.8^{o}[/tex]

HELPPPP PLEASE HELP ME WITH BASIC MATH I REALLY APPRECIATE IT ((WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST))​

Answers

Answer:

3) 522

4) 468

Step-by-step explanation:

hello!

3) in the question, it says the cross section is a square, and the area of PQRS is 81.

for the square, we know that the length and height have to be the same, so if the area is 81, then we know the sides are both 9 because 9*9 is 81 and they're the same numbers multiplied. (same height and length)

with the information that all 4 sides of the square is 9 and the other side is labeled 10, we can figure out the rest.

both squares : 81+81=162

both 10 by 9 sides: 90+90=180

both 10 by 9 sides (top and bottom): 90+90=180

total surface area=162+180+180=522

4) for this problem, we can see that the triangle is a right triangle.

to solve the area of the triangle, we can do (9*12)/2=108/2=54.

there are two sides with triangles, so we double 54 (54*2=108)

9 by 10 side: 90

10 by 12 side: 120

now for the last slide, theres no information on the length. the formula for the diagonal is

a^2+b^2=c^2

which is

9^2+12^2=81+144=255=15^2

with this, the area of the rectangular side gives us 10*15 which is 150.

adding it together, we get

108+90+120+150=468.

hope this helps!

A company is making two types of covered aluminum containers. One is a cylinder with a height of 114feet and a diameter of 1 foot. The other is a rectangular prism with a length of 34foot, a width of 34foot, and a height of 1 foot. How much greater is a cylinder's capacity?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]V_d=976.9ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height of cylinder h_1=114 feet

Diameter d=1

Length of triangular prism [tex]l_2=34ft[/tex]

Width of triangular prism  [tex]w_2=34ft[/tex]

Height of triangular prism [tex]h_2=1 ft[/tex]

Generally the equation for Volume of the cylinder is mathematically given by

 [tex]V_c=\pir^2h[/tex]

Where

 [tex]r=d/2\\r=0.5[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]V_c-=\pi*0.5*114[/tex]

 [tex]V_c=57\pi[/tex]

 [tex]V_c=179.1ft[/tex]

Generally the equation for Volume of a Rectangular prism is mathematically given by

 [tex]V_r=whl[/tex]

 [tex]V_r=34*34*1[/tex]

 [tex]V_r=1156feet[/tex]

Generally the equation for Volume difference  is mathematically given by

Using the given equation find the missing coordinates o the points and then find the slope of the line for each equation y-2x=3; A(...;6), B(15; ...)

Answers

Answer:

(1.5,6)(15,33) slope=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

y-2x=3; A(1.5, 6) B(15,33) Slope = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing, you add 2x on both sides and get y=2x+3. Since the equation y=mx+b states that m is the slope, the slope is 2.

2nd step is finding the missing coordinate for a. You plug in 6 as the y in the equation y=2x+3, and then get 2x+3=6. Now it is a simple algrebraic equation and you get x=3/2 or 1.5.

The final step is to solve for B. Using the equation y=2x+3, and substituting in x as 15, you get y=30+3 which equals 33.
