To the nearest cubic​ centimeter, what is the volume of the regular hexagonal​ prism?

a hexagonal prism has a height of 7 centimeters and a base with a side length of 3 centimeters. a line segment of length 2.6 centimeters connects a point at the center of the base to the midpoint of one of its sides, forming a right angle.


the volume of the regular hexagonal prism is about ___ cm3

Answer:

  3.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the difference in height between similar isosceles triangles, one with height of 30 ft and a base of 24 ft, the other with a side length of 28.5 ft.

We can find the side length of the larger triangle using the Pythagorean theorem. It will be ...

  longer side = √(30² +12²) ≈ 32.311 ft

Then the length x is the difference between the altitudes of the triangles. The altitudes are proportional to the side lengths, so we have ...

  (30 -x)/28.5 = 30/32.311

  x = 30-(28.5)(30/32.311) = 30(1 -28.5/32.311) ≈ 3.538 ≈ 3.5 . . . . feet

The hand rail is about 3.5 feet above the bridge deck.

We recognize that the distance from the hand rail to the top of the triangle is the product of the given side length (28.5 ft) and the cosine of the angle between the side and the altitude.

The tangent of that angle is the ratio of its opposite side (12 ft) to its adjacent side (30 ft), or θ = arctan(12/30).

The value of x is the difference of the altitudes of the triangles, so is ...

  x = 30 -28.5·cos(arctan(12/30)) ≈ 3.5 ft

We find this easier to compute.

The P-value is less than the significance level of 0.01, we reject the null hypothesis.

Null Hypothesis: The proportion of adults who prefer window seats when they fly is 0.5 or less.

Alternative Hypothesis: The proportion of adults who prefer window seats when they fly is greater than 0.5.

Let p be the true proportion of adults who prefer window seats when they fly.

The sample proportion of adults who prefer window seats is:

= 520/813 = 0.639

The standard error of the sample proportion is:

SE = sqrt((1-)/n) = sqrt(0.639(1-0.639)/813) = 0.022

The test statistic is:

z = ( - 0.5)/SE = (0.639 - 0.5)/0.022 = 6.32

Using a normal distribution, the P-value is P(Z > 6.32) < 0.0001.

Since the P-value is less than the significance level of 0.01, we reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the majority of adults prefer window seats when they fly.

Let's start by finding the volume of the cistern at any given time t. Since the cistern is in the form of an inverted circular cone, its volume can be expressed as:

V = (1/3)πr^2h

where r is the radius of the circular opening, h is the height of the cone (which is also the depth of the cistern), and π is the constant pi.

We are given that the cistern is 5 meters deep, and the radius of its opening is 2 meters. Therefore, we can plug these values into the equation above to get:

V = (1/3)π(2^2)(5)

V = 20/3 π

Now, we need to find the rate at which the water level is rising in the cistern after 30 minutes. Let's call this rate dh/dt (the change in height with respect to time).

We know that the water is being added to the cistern at a rate of 65 liters per minute. Since 1 liter is equal to 0.001 cubic meters, the volume of water being added per minute is:

(65 liters/minute) × (0.001 m^3/liter) = 0.065 m^3/minute

Therefore, the rate at which the height of the water in the cistern is changing is:

dh/dt = (0.065 m^3/minute) / (20/3 π m^3) = 3.87/π meters/minute

After 30 minutes, the height of the water in the cistern will have risen by:

h = (65 liters/minute) × (0.001 m^3/liter) × (30 minutes) / (20/3 π m^3) = 0.2925 meters

Therefore, the rate at which the water level is rising in the cistern 30 minutes after the filling process began is:

dh/dt = 3.87/π meters/minute

The missing dimension of the triangle is the height, which is 19 cm.

To find the missing dimension of the triangle, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle:

Area = (1/2) x base x height

We know that the area is 256.5 cm^2 and the base is 27 cm. Therefore, we can plug in these values into the formula and solve for the height:

256.5 = (1/2) x 27 x height

256.5 = 13.5 x height

height = 256.5 / 13.5

height = 19

Therefore, the missing dimension of the triangle is the height, which is 19 cm.

To solve this problem, we can use the multiplication rule of probability, which states that the probability of two or more independent events occurring together is the product of their individual probabilities.

Let L, R, and S be the events that a vehicle turns left, turns right, and goes straight on, respectively. We want to find the probability of the following event:

E: One vehicle goes straight on and the other two either both turn left or both turn right.

We can break down event E into two sub-events: one vehicle goes straight on and the other two vehicles both turn left or both turn right. Let's calculate the probabilities of these sub-events separately:

- Probability that one vehicle goes straight on: P(S) = 0.3

- Probability that the other two vehicles both turn left or both turn right: P((LL) or (RR)) = P(LL) + P(RR)

To find P(LL) and P(RR), we can use the multiplication rule again. Since the events are independent, we can multiply their individual probabilities:

- Probability that two vehicles both turn left: P(LL) = P(L) × P(L) = 0.55 × 0.55 = 0.3025

- Probability that two vehicles both turn right: P(RR) = P(R) × P(R) = 0.15 × 0.15 = 0.0225

Therefore, the probability of event E is:

P(E) = P(S) × P((LL) or (RR))

    = 0.3 × (P(LL) + P(RR))

    = 0.3 × (0.3025 + 0.0225)

    = 0.0975

So the probability that, of the next three vehicles approaching the junction from town A, one goes straight on and the other two either both turn left or both turn right is 0.0975 or approximately 0.1 (rounded to one decimal place).

The turbocharged model is moving 41.25 ft/sec faster than the model with the standard engine at the end of the 11-second test run.

We need to find how much faster the turbo-charged model is moving than the model with the standard engine at the end of an 11-second test run at full throttle.

To find the final velocity of each model at the end of 11 seconds, we need to integrate their respective acceleration functions with respect to time from 0 to 11 seconds:

For the standard engine model:

v(t) = ∫(5 + 0.8t) dt = 5t + [tex]0.4t^2[/tex]

v(11) = 5(11) +[tex]0.4(11)^2[/tex] = 72.4 ft/sec

For the turbo-charged model:

v(t) = ∫(5 + 1.2t + 0.03[tex]t^2[/tex]) dt = 5t +[tex]0.6t^2 + 0.01t^3[/tex]

v(11) = 5(11) + [tex]0.6(11)^2 + 0.01(11)^3[/tex]= 113.65 ft/sec

The difference in final velocity between the two models is:

[tex]v_{turbo} - v_{standard[/tex] = 113.65 - 72.4 = 41.25 ft/sec

Therefore, the turbo-charged model is moving 41.25 ft/sec faster than the model with the standard engine at the end of the 11-second test run.

The algebraic expression for the weigh of both baskets where each one contains pumpkins and carrots in kilos is equals to the 7x + 2, in kilos.

We have two baskets where each one contains pumpkins and carrots. We have to determine the both baskets weigh together in kilos. Let's assume that

The number of pumpkins in second basket = x kilos

Now, according to first scenario, first basket contains the pumpkins twice as many kilos of pumpkin as in the second basket. That is the number of pumpkins in first basket = 2x kilos

In second case, the second basket there are three more kilos of carrots than there are kilos of pumpkin in the first. So, the number of carrots in second basket

= (3 + 2x ) kilos

In third case, the first basket has 4 kilos less carrot than the second, that is x

=( ( 3 + 2x) - 4 ) kg

Now, weigh of first basket = carrots + pumpkins = (2x + 2x - 1) kilos

= (4x - 1 ) kilos

Weigh of second basket = carrots + pumpkins = (3 + 2x) kilos + x kilos

= (3 + 3x) kilos

So, weigh of both baskets together

= (4x - 1 ) kilos + (3 + 3x) kilos

=( 7x + 2 ) kilos.

The cat is 3/8 inches taller than the dragon.

To find the difference in height between the cat and the dragon, we need to subtract the height of the dragon from the height of the cat.

The cat is 7/8 inch tall, and the dragon is 1/2 inch tall.

To subtract fractions, we first need a common denominator. The least common denominator (LCD) of 2 and 8 is 8.

So, we'll convert the fractions to equivalent fractions with a denominator of 8.

1/2 = 4/8 (multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 4)

Now, we can subtract the fractions:

(7/8) - (4/8) = (7 - 4)/8 = 3/8

So, the cat is 3/8 inches taller than the dragon.

The 3rd Maclaurin polynomial for f(x) = tan x is P(x) = x + (1/3)x^3.

Recall that the Maclaurin series expansion for tan x is given by:

tan x = x + (1/3)x^3 + (2/15)x^5 + ...

To find the 3rd Maclaurin polynomial, we only need to take the first three terms of the series expansion, since n = 3.

Thus, the 3rd Maclaurin polynomial for f(x) = tan x is given by:

P(x) = x + (1/3)x^3.

Note that the first two terms of the polynomial, x and (1/3)x^3, correspond to the first two terms of the Maclaurin series expansion for tan x.

The third term of the polynomial would correspond to the next term in the series expansion, which is (2/15)x^5. However, since we are only finding the 3rd Maclaurin polynomial, we do not need to include this term.

The minimum sample size required is approximately 2507 individuals to accurately poll the proportion of Americans favoring a government-run, single-payer healthcare system within a 2% margin of error and with 99% confidence.

To determine the minimum sample size required for your poll on the proportion of Americans favoring a government-run, single-payer healthcare system, you need to consider the desired margin of error (2%), the confidence level (99%), and the estimated proportion from a previous poll (21%).

Step 1: Identify the critical value (Z-score) for a 99% confidence level. You can use a Z-score table or calculator for this. The critical value is approximately 2.576.

Step 2: Determine the margin of error (E). In this case, the margin of error is 2%, or 0.02.

Step 3: Use the estimated proportion (p) from the previous poll, which is 21%, or 0.21. Calculate the estimated proportion for not favoring the single-payer system (q), which is 1 - p, or 0.79.

Step 4: Apply the formula for the minimum sample size (n):

n = (Z^2 * p * q) / E^2

n = (2.576^2 * 0.21 * 0.79) / 0.02^2

n ≈ 2506.73

Since you cannot have a fraction of a person, round up to the nearest whole number. The minimum sample size required is approximately 2507 individuals to accurately poll the proportion of Americans favoring a government-run, single-payer healthcare system within a 2% margin of error and with 99% confidence.

If Dagne is 48 inches tall, then she can jump 13.2 inches high.

Given that Dagne can do a vertical jump that is 27.5% of her height, and she is 48 inches tall, we can find how high she can jump by multiplying her height by the percentage of her vertical jump as follows:

Jump height = 27.5% of height

Jump height = (27.5/100) x 48 inches

Jump height = 0.275 x 48 inches

Jump height = 13.2 inches

Therefore, Dagne can jump 13.2 inches high.

To explain this, we can say that the problem gives us information about the proportion of Dagne's height that she can jump vertically. The percentage of her height that she can jump is given as 27.5%, which we can convert to a decimal form (0.275) for calculation purposes. Multiplying this decimal by Dagne's height of 48 inches gives us the height that she can jump, which is 13.2 inches. So, Dagne can jump 13.2 inches high based on the given information.

Answer:

9th term is

[tex]a_9 = \dfrac{1280}{2187}\\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This sequence is clearly a geometric progression where the ratio of any term to the previous term is constant and known as common ratio

The 3 terms given are:
15, 10 and 20/3

10 ÷ 15 = 2/3

20/3 ÷ 10 = 2/3

So the common ratio is 2/3

For a geometric sequence with common ratio r and first term a₁, the nth term is given by the equation

aₙ = a₁ · rⁿ⁻¹

Here a₁  = first term = 15

r = 2/3

So the general equation for the nth term of this equation is
aₙ = 15 · (2/3)ⁿ⁻¹

The 9th term would be

[tex]a_9 = 15 \cdot \left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^{9-1}\\\\a_9 = 15 \cdot \left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^{8}\\\\a_9 = 15 \cdot \left(\dfrac{256}{6561}\right)\\\\a_9 = 15 \cdot \left(\dfrac{256}{6561}\right)\\[/tex]
15 is divisible by 3 giving 5
6561 is divisible by 3 giving 2187

So the above expression simplifies to
[tex]a_9 = 5 \cdot \dfrac{256}{2187}\\\\a_9 = \dfrac{1280}{2187}\\[/tex]

The height of the cone is 30 cm

The first step is to write out the parameters given in the question

Volume of the cone= 2560π cm³

Diameter of the circular base is 32 cm

radius= diameter/2

= 32/2

= 16

The formula for calculating the height of the cone is

Height= volume ÷ 1/3 πr²

height= 2560 πcm³ ÷ 1/3 πr²

height= 2560 ÷ 0.333(16²)

height= 2560 ÷ 0.333(256)

height= 2560÷ 85.248

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the segment lengths DA and DE of the hypotenuse in the triangle shown in the figure.

The radius to a point of tangency always makes a right angle with the tangent. This is a right triangle with legs 8 and 15, so you know from your knowledge of Pythagorean triples that the hypotenuse is 17.

  DA = 17

  DE = 17 -8 = 9

__

Additional comment

In case you haven't memorized a few of the useful Pythagorean triples, {3, 4, 5}, {5, 12, 13}, {7, 24, 25}, {8, 15, 17}, you can always figure the missing side length of a right triangle using the Pythagorean theorem.

It tells you the sum of the squares of the legs is the square of the hypotenuse:

  AC² +CD² = DA²

  8² +15² = DA²

  64 +225 = 289 = DA²

  DA = √289 = 17

Of course, AE is the radius of the circe, 8, so ...

  AE + DE = DA

  8 +DE = 17

  DE = 17 -8 = 9

Alternatively, you can solve this using the relation between tangents and secants. If the line DA is extended across the circle to intersect it again at X, then ...

  DC² = DE·DX

  15² = DE·DX = DE(DE +16) . . . . . . . EX is the diameter, twice the radius of 8

  DE² +16DE -225 = 0

  (DE +25)(DE -9) = 0 . . . . factor

  DE = 9  . . . . the positive solution

  DA = 9 +8 = 17

We like the Pythagorean theorem solution better, as the factors of the quadratic may not be obvious.

Answer:

48 adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use algebra to solve this problem:

Let's define:

From the problem statement, we know:

We can use the first equation to solve for x in terms of y:

x = 320 - y

Substituting this expression for x into the second equation, we get:

3(320 - y) + 8y = 1200

Expanding the left side, we get:

960 - 3y + 8y = 1200

Simplifying, we get:

5y = 240

Solving for y, we get:

y = 48

Therefore, 48 adult tickets were sold.

Additional:

To find the number of student tickets sold, we can substitute y=48 into the first equation:

x + 48 = 320

x = 272

Therefore, 272 student tickets were sold.

The expression that represents the side length of the square pool is 2x² + 36x - 1120 = 0. The side length of the square pool is x = 16.31 feet.

Let's denote the side length of the square pool as x.

The walkway on two opposite sides of the pool is 8 feet, which means that the overall length of the pool and walkway on those sides is x + 8 + 8 = x + 16.

Similarly, x + 10 + 10 = x + 20.

The total area covered by the pool and walkway is given as 1,440 square feet.

Total Area = Pool Area + Walkway Area

The area of the square pool is x², and the area of the walkway is the difference between the total area and the pool area:

Walkway Area = Total Area - Pool Area

Substituting the values, we have:

1440 = x² + (x + 16)(x + 20)

1440 = x² + (x² + 36x + 320)

Combining like terms:

1440 = 2x² + 36x + 320

2x² + 36x + 320 - 1440 = 0

2x² + 36x - 1120 = 0

After solving, we get:

[tex]x=-9+\sqrt{641},\:x=-9-\sqrt{641}[/tex]

Take positive value:

[tex]x=-9+\sqrt{641},\\x = -9+25.31\\x = 16.31[/tex]

So, the side length of the square pool is 16.31 feet.
