Answer:12.4

Step-by-step explanation:

18^2-13^2=155
Square root of 155 to the nearest tenth is 12.4

To find the distance between the two banks of the river where the arch bridge is, we first need to determine the points where the bridge makes contact with the banks at a height of 4 meters.

We are given the parabola shape of the arch with the equation y = -0.1(x - 5)^2 + 12.

1. Set the height y equal to 4 meters:

4 = -0.1(x - 5)^2 + 12

2. Subtract 12 from both sides:

-8 = -0.1(x - 5)^2

3. Divide both sides by -0.1:

80 = (x - 5)^2

4. Take the square root of both sides:

sqrt(80) = x - 5

5. Now, we find the two x-values where the bridge contacts the banks:

x1 = sqrt(80) + 5

x2 = -sqrt(80) + 5

6. Calculate the distance between the two banks by subtracting x2 from x1:

Distance = x1 - x2 = (sqrt(80) + 5) - (-sqrt(80) + 5)

7. Simplify the expression:

Distance = 2 * sqrt(80)

8. Round your answer to the nearest whole number:

Distance ≈ 18 meters

The distance between the two banks of the river where the arch bridge is, is approximately 18 meters.

There are 6 cute numbers in total which are 14, 19, 49, 55, 79, 85.To find the cute numbers, we need to check all numbers greater than 9 and see if they satisfy the cute condition.

Let's start by analyzing the digits of a number. Suppose the number has two digits, x and y. The cute condition requires:

x + y + xy = 10x + y

Rearranging this equation, we get:

xy - 9x = y - x

xy - x - y = -9x

(x - 1)(y - 1) = 9x - 1

For a number to be cute, the right-hand side of the equation must be divisible by the left-hand side. Since 9x - 1 is odd, the left-hand side must also be odd, which means one of the factors (x - 1) or (y - 1) must be odd and the other even.

We can now check all possible pairs of (x,y) that satisfy this condition. We find that the cute numbers are:

14, 19, 49, 55, 79, 85. Therfore, there are total 6 cute numbers.

577 square feet is the area of the painted part of the wall.

To calculate the area of the painted part of the wall, you'll first need to find the total area of the wall and then subtract the areas of the windows and door. Let's assume the wall has a height of 33 ft and a width of 20 ft (since the other dimensions aren't provided).

1. Calculate the total area of the wall:
Area of wall = Height x Width = 33 ft x 20 ft = 660 sq ft

2. Calculate the areas of the windows and door:
Window A = 6 ft x 5 ft = 30 sq ft
Window B = 3 ft x 4 ft = 12 sq ft
Window C = 9 sq ft (already provided)
Door D = 4 ft x 8 ft = 32 sq ft

3. Subtract the areas of the windows and door from the total wall area:
Painted area = Wall area - (Window A + Window B + Window C + Door D) = 660 sq ft - (30 sq ft + 12 sq ft + 9 sq ft + 32 sq ft) = 660 sq ft - 83 sq ft = 577 sq ft

Angle WXY is vertical to angle WXZ, they are equal, therefore, angle WXY is also 141 degrees.

To find the angle WXY, we need to use the properties of angles formed by intersecting chords in a circle. The angles formed by intersecting chords are related to the arcs intercepted by those chords.

Given that the arc WVX is equal to (13x + 9) and the angle WXZ is equal to (5x + 36), we can set up an equation:

Angle WXZ = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] * Arc WVX

(5x + 36) = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] * (13x + 9)

To solve for x, we'll multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to eliminate the fraction:

2(5x + 36) = 13x + 9

10x + 72 = 13x + 9

Subtracting 10x and 9 from both sides, we get:

72 - 9 = 13x - 10x

63 = 3x

Dividing both sides by 3, we find:

x = 21

Now that we have the value of x, we can substitute it back into the equation for the angle WXZ to find its value:

Angle WXZ = 5x + 36 = 5(21) + 36 = 105 + 36 = 141 degrees

Since angle WXY is vertical to angle WXZ, they are equal. Therefore, the angle WXY is also 141 degrees.

If the events are exclusive, use the Rule of Sum. If the events are independent, use the Fundamental Counting Principle.

The Rule of Sum and the Fundamental Counting Principle are two common methods used in probability to calculate the total number of possible outcomes. Knowing which method to use depends on the nature of the problem and the type of events involved.

The Rule of Sum is used when we have two or more exclusive events. This means that only one of the events can happen at a time. For example, when rolling a die, the events of rolling a 2 or a 4 are exclusive because you cannot roll both at the same time.

The rule of sum states that the total number of possible outcomes is the sum of the number of outcomes for each event.

On the other hand, the Fundamental Counting Principle is used when we have a sequence of events that are independent of each other. This means that the outcome of one event does not affect the outcome of the next event.

For example, when flipping a coin, the outcome of the first flip does not affect the outcome of the second flip. The fundamental counting principle states that the total number of possible outcomes is the product of the number of outcomes for each event.

= 16y^2 + 8yz + z^2

Comparing this with the general form of a quadratic expression, ax^2 + bx + c, we can see that:

a = 16

b = 8z

Therefore, the value of a is 16 and the value of b is 8z.

The value of the algebraic expression from the given parameters is:

x³ + 1/x³ = 0

The given problem is simply based on the expansion.

In expansion, what we do is that we expand the mathematical terms by  first of all removing all the brackets that are in that mathematical expression.

In expanding a mathematical expression, what we have to do is that we have to make use some of the identities that can be gotten by multiplying one binomial with the another one and then this type of identities are called as Standard Identities.

For example:  

(x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab

Thus:

(x + 1/x)² = 3

x + 1/x = √3

(x+1/x)³ = x³ + (1/x)³ + 3(x)(1/x) (x + 1/x)

If the formula predicted Wendy's height to be 65 inches based on her hand length of 6.5 inches, the residual would be -2 inches

A residual is the difference between the predicted value of a variable (in this case, height) and the actual value of that variable. Residuals are often used in statistical analysis to assess the accuracy of a prediction or model.

In this case, if we were given the formula for predicting height from hand length, we could use it to predict Wendy's height and compare that to her actual height of 63 inches. The residual would be the difference between the predicted height and her actual height. If the prediction overestimated her height, the residual would be negative. If it underestimated her height, the residual would be positive.

For example, if the formula predicted Wendy's height to be 65 inches based on her hand length of 6.5 inches, the residual would be -2 inches (predicted height minus actual height). If the formula predicted her height to be 61 inches, the residual would be +2 inches.

Overall, residuals are a useful tool for assessing the accuracy of predictions or models, but the specific calculation of a residual depends on the formula being used to make the prediction.

The angle θ lies in Quadrant I given that cos(θ) > 0 and sin(θ) > 0.

Based on the given information that cos(θ) > 0 and sin(θ) > 0, we can determine the quadrant in which the angle θ lies.

Recall that there are four quadrants in a Cartesian coordinate system: Quadrant I (both x and y are positive), Quadrant II (x is negative, y is positive), Quadrant III (both x and y are negative), and Quadrant IV (x is positive, y is negative). The cosine function, cos(θ), represents the x-coordinate of a point on the unit circle, while the sine function, sin(θ), represents the y-coordinate.

Since cos(θ) > 0, the angle θ must be in a quadrant where the x-coordinate is positive. This means that θ can lie in either Quadrant I or Quadrant IV. Next, since sin(θ) > 0, the angle θ must be in a quadrant where the y-coordinate is positive. This narrows down the possibilities to only Quadrant I, where both x and y coordinates are positive.

Therefore, the angle θ lies in Quadrant I given that cos(θ) > 0 and sin(θ) > 0.

Start by calculating the total number of ways to choose 4 students from the group of 125.

C(125,4) = 125! / (4! (125-4)!)

              = 125 x 124 x 123 x 122 / (4 x 3 x 2 x 1)

              = 9,691,375

Next, calculate the number of ways to choose 4 criminal justice majors from the group of 18.

C(18,4) = 18! / (4! (18-4)!)

           = 18 x 17 x 16 x 15 / (4 x 3 x 2 x 1)

           = 3060

Finally,

Probability of selecting 4 criminal justice majors

=  number of ways to choose 4 criminal justice majors / total number of ways to choose 4 students:

The measure of angle M is 20°.

To solve the problem, we need to find the measure of angle M, given the information about Circle K with center O, diameter US, angle MRU = 50°, and angle MUT = 30°.

Step 1: Determine the relationship between angles MRU and MUT.
Since MRU and MUT are both inscribed angles in Circle K, they share the same intercepted arc, which is arc MU.

Step 2: Calculate the measure of arc MU.
The measure of an intercepted arc is twice the measure of the inscribed angle. Since angle MRU = 50°, the measure of arc MU will be 2 * 50° = 100°.

Step 3: Find the measure of angle M.
We know that angle MUT = 30°, and the measure of an intercepted arc is twice the measure of the inscribed angle. Therefore, the measure of arc MT = 2 * 30° = 60°. Now, since arc MU = 100°, we can determine the measure of arc MS (arc MS = arc MU - arc MT) which is 100° - 60° = 40°.

Step 4: Calculate the measure of angle M.
Finally, the measure of angle M can be found using the intercepted arc MS. Since the measure of an intercepted arc is twice the measure of the inscribed angle, angle M = 1/2 * arc MS = 1/2 * 40° = 20°.
