A rancher’s herd of 250 sheep grazes over a 40-acre pasture. He would like to find out how many sheep are grazing on each acre o

f the pasture at any given time, so he has some images of the pasture taken by the state department of agriculture’s aerial photography division. Here are three samples of the images.
Sample 1 4
Sample 2 1
Sample 3 9
If the sheep were equally "spread out" across all of the 40 acres, how many sheep would you expect to find on average on each acre?

Response:

0.16 acres for each sheep

Explanatory steps:

With a total of 40 acres allocated to 250 sheep, you would calculate the area per sheep by dividing the total acres by the sheep count. This can be represented as:

40/250 =....

Response:

On average, there will be approximately 6.25 sheep per acre.

Explanatory steps:

250 divided by 40 equals 6.25.

A rectangle is transformed according to the rule R0, 90º. The image of the rectangle has vertices located at R'(–4, 4), S'(–4, 1
babunello [11817]
We understand that a rectangle has been altered into the one shown in Figure 1 using this rule:

R_0, \ 90^{\circ}

It is known that the origin is the center of rotation and two rules apply to perform a rotation of 90 degrees, namely:

1. Clockwise

The rule to convert a point in this case is:

(x,y) \rightarrow (y,-x)

This rule has already been implemented to create the image, so we need to reverse the outcome using this formula, hence:

For \ Q(-3,4): \\ \\ (y,-x)=(-3,4) \\ \\ \therefore y=-3 \ and \ -x=4 \therefore x=-4 \\ \\ Thus, \ the \ point \ is: \\ \\ \boxed{Q(-4,-3)}

2. Counterc
lockwise

Applying the same concept as before but with new rules for the scenario:

(x,y) \rightarrow (-y,x)

Reversing the outcome gives us:

For \ Q(-3,4): \\ \\ (-y,x)=(-3,4) \\ \\ \therefore -y=-3 \therefore y=3 \ and \ x=4 \\ \\ Thus, \ the \ point \ is: \\ \\ \boxed{Q(4,3)}

The perimeter of the triangle is 44cm.if it’s sides are in the ratio 9:7:6.find its area
AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

The area calculates to 83.905 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The overall ratio is 9 + 7 + 6 = 22

Thus, the side lengths are computed as follows;

9/22 * 44 = 18 cm

7/22 * 44 = 14 cm

6/22 * 44 = 12 cm

Heron’s formula allows us to determine the area of the triangle

First, we calculate s

s = (a + b + c)/2 = (18+14+12)/2 = 44/2 = 22

Heron’s formula can be expressed as;

A = √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)

where a, b, and c are 18, 14, and 12 respectively

Plugging in the values, we obtain;

A = √22(22-18)(22-14)(22-12)

A = √(22 * 4 * 8 * 10)

A = √(7,040)

A = 83.905 cm^3

A circle is shown. Secants E G and D G intersect at point G outside of the circle. Secant E G intersects the circle at point F a
Zina [12379]

Answer:

Step-by-step breakdown:

The necessary formula for this problem is

6(6+x)=5(5+x+3)

which resolves to

6(6+x)=5(8+x)

leading to

36 + 6x = 40 + 5x, and consequently

x = 4

Thus, DG equals 5 + 4 + 3, resulting in 12

A college football coach has decided to recruit only the heaviest 15% of high school football players. He knows that high school
Inessa [12570]

Response:

The coach should begin seeking players who weigh at least 269.55 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these details from the question:

Average, μ = 225 pounds

Standard Deviation, σ = 43 pounds

The weights follow a bell curve, indicating a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

We need to establish the value of x that corresponds to a probability of 0.15

P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43})=0.15

= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43})=0.15

=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43})=0.85

Review from the standard normal z table gives us:

P(z < 1.036) = 0.85

\displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43} = 1.036\\\\x = 269.548 \approx 269.55

Consequently, the coach should start recruiting players weighing at least 269.55 pounds.
