After that incident, the Civil defense team decided to buy new trucks with ladders higher than 100 feet. They found 2 different trucks with same height of ladders. The first truck costs $145,000 and will cost $0.31 per mile traveled based on the current gas prices. The second truck will cost $160,000 but gets better gas mileage, costing $0.27 per mile. They need to decide which truck is the best deal.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the first truck

Step-by-step explanation:

the cost difference between the first truck and the second truck = $160,000-$145,000 = $15,000

the difference of gas cost between the first truck and the second truck = $0.31 - $0.26= $0.05 per mile.

so,

I think, this is a very significant number of truck cost compared with gas cost

for the best deal, the first truck is the best choice.

A wire was bent into the shape of a rectangle with width 5 and length 7 . If this wire
is bent into the shape of a square, what is the length of a side of the square?
A) 3
B) 6
C) 24
D) 35

Answers

Answer:

B | 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the length of the wire by finding the perimeter of the rectangle

2(5) 2(7) = 24

If a square has 4 sides, put 24 as the numerator and 4 as the denominator.

24/4

Now, divide it and you'll get 6, the answer.

The mean room temperature from Monday to Saturday is 25oC and the mean room temperature of Saturday and Sunday is 28oC. if the mean room temperature from Monday to Sunday is 26oC, find the room temperature on Saturday

Answers

Answer:

We can conclude that the room temperature on Saturday was 24°C

Step-by-step explanation:

For a set of N values:

{x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ}

The mean of the set is calculated as:

[tex]M = \frac{x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_n}{N}[/tex]

In this case, our set is the temperature of 7 days (so we have 7 elements)

{T₁, T₂, T₃, T₄, T₅, T₆, T₇}

Such that:

T₆ = temperature on Saturday

T₇ = temperature on Sunday.

We know that:

"The mean room temperature from Monday to Saturday is 25°C"

Then:

[tex]\frac{T_1 + T_2 + T_3 + T_4 + T_5 + T_6}{6} = 25 C[/tex]

"the mean room temperature of Saturday and Sunday is 28°C"

[tex]\frac{T_6 + T_7}{2} = 28C[/tex]

"The mean room temperature from Monday to Sunday is 26°C"

[tex]\frac{T_1 + T_2 + T_3 + T_4 + T_5 + T_6 + T_7}{7} = 26 C[/tex]

So we have 3 equations.

Let's rewrite:

T₁ + T₂ + T₃ + T₄ + T₅ = A

Then we can rewrite our equations as:

[tex]\frac{A+ T_6}{6} = 25 C[/tex]

[tex]\frac{T_6 + T_7}{2} = 28C[/tex]

[tex]\frac{A + T_6 + T_7}{7} = 26 C[/tex]

Removing the "Celcius" and multiplying in the 3 equations by the denominator on both sides, we get:

A + T₆ = 6*25

T₆ + T₇ = 2*28

A + T₆ + T₇ = 7*26

We now need to solve that system for T₆

The first step is to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, (because we want to solve this for T₆ , let's not isolate that one). Let's isolate A in the first one:

A = 6*25 -  T₆

A = 150 -  T₆

Now we can replace this on the other two equations:

T₆ + T₇ = 2*28

(150 -  T₆ ) + T₆ + T₇ = 7*26

Now, let's isolate T₇  in the top equation to get:

T₇  = 2*28 - T₆

T₇  = 56 - T₆

Now we can replace this in the last equation to get:

(150 -  T₆ ) + T₆ + (56 - T₆)  = 7*26

Now, we can solve this for T₆

150 - T₆ + T₆ + 56 - T₆ = 182

-T₆ = 182 - 150 - 56

-T₆ = -24

T₆ = 24

We can conclude that the room temperature on Saturday was 24°C

Alice draws a triangle and measures two of the angles with a protractor. The angle measures are 65 and 45. Cal says the measure of the third angle is 60. Explain why Cal's answer is incorrect.

Answers

Answer: Cal's answer must be incorrect because the sum of angles is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

According to Cal, the three angles of the triangle has magnitude 65, 45 and 60 respectively.

Sum of angles = 65+45+60

i.e. Sum of angles = 170 which is not equal to 180

Hence, Cal's answer must be incorrect because the sum of angles is incorrect.

Probability  that the two numbers are multiples of 3 after replacing first

What is Probability?

It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.

The odd integers from11 to 22 are

11,13,15,17,19,21

So there are 6 events

Out of these 6 numbers, 2 numbers (15,21) are multiples of 3.

One number out of these 2 numbers can be chosen in 2 ways.

Therefore, favourable number of elementary events = 2.

Required probability =2/6=1/3

Hence 1/3 is the probability  that the two numbers are multiples of 3 after replacing first

Applying the Pythagorean theorem, solve this triangle.​

Answers

Answer:

c = sqrt(106)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is aright triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

5^2 + 9^2 = c^2

25 +81 = c^2

106 = c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(106) = sqrt(c^2)

c = sqrt(106)

A student said that the volume of a cone with a 4-inch diameter is two times the volume of a cone with the same height and a 2-inch radius. What is the error?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let V be the volume of the cone.

The student says that, the volume of a cone with a 4-inch diameter is two times the volume of a cone with the same height and a 2-inch radius.

If diameter is 4 inch, radius = 2 inch

Volume of the cone,

[tex]V=\dfrac{\pi }{3}\times 2^2\times h\\\\V=\dfrac{4\pi h}{3}[/tex] .......(1)

If radius, r = 2 inch

New volume,

[tex]V=\dfrac{\pi }{3}\times 2^2\times h\\\\V=\dfrac{4\pi h}{3}[/tex] ....(2)

We can see that the volume in both case is same. Hence, the student is correct.
