We use the trigonometric function for this case. An escalator is an inclined path. We form a right triangle since we have given the value of the height. The height from the first floor to second floor is called the adjacent while the travelled distance of the people is called the hypothenuse. We use cosine function because we are given in terms of adjacent and hypothenuse. The ratio of cosine function is
cos x = a/h
where x is the angle
Solving for h,
h = a/(cos x) = 21/(cos 30) = 24.25 ft
Data:
15 16 14 15 19 17
n=6 points
sum is 96
mean is 96/6 = 16
Now we look at the absolute deviations, each of which is the absolute value of a score minus the mean, basically the distance of the score to the mean .
Scores 15 16 14 15 19 17
AbsDev 1 0 2 1 3 1
The sum of the absolute deviations is 8 and there are six of them so the
Mean Absolute Deviation = 8/6 = 4/3
Answer: 2. 8/6
Answer:
78 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter of a kite formula: 2(a+b)
a= 18 inches
b= 21 inches
2(18+21)
2(39)
78 inches
Answer:
Gabriel needs to have $3.75 for sales tax.
Step-by-step explanation:
A sales tax rate of 6.25% means that 6.25 cents is going to be charged for tax for each dollar you spend. (Because 6.25% of $1.00 is 6.25 cents.)
If he was spending $10, the sales tax would be 62.5 cents (6.25 cents per dollar x 10 dollars). Since he is spending $60 on this item, the equation would be (6.25 cents per dollar x 60 dollars) (6.25 cents x 60 = 375 cents).
And 375 cents equals $3.75.
