(he was flunking school to get out of school plus he worked at kfc and loved his job, during the 11th grade btw)

 summerize this:

      I didn’t know what I was doing or what I believed in, except the United States of America and the Cleveland Browns. Sometimes, to break my addiction to the tube[1], I spent the night in a derelict shed with mushrooms growing from the rafter boards. Back-yard rehab. I used to read in there, or, anyway, swing my eyes over the pages of library books: “Out of Africa” (the girl I was in love with loved the move); Donal Trump’s autobiography; Kierkegaard; “Leaves of Grass”; a book about how to make a robot from an eight-track player. As long as nobody had assigned the book, I could stick with it. I didn’t know what I was reading. I didn’t really know how to read. Reading messed with my brain in an unaccountable way. It made me happy; or something. I copied out the first paragraph of Annie Dillard’s “An American Childhood” on my bedroom’s dormer wall. The book was a present from an ace teacher, a literary evangelist in classy shoes, who also flunked me, of course, with good reason. Even to myself I was a lost cause. ​

A tourist in Ireland wants to visit five different cities. If the route is

randomly selected, what is the probability that the tourist will visit the

cities in alphabetical order? Round your answer to three decimal places.

0.004

1.234

0.023

0.008

Answers

Answer:

0.008

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Total outcomes:

He will visit 5 different cities. So the total number of ways this can happen is an arrangment of 5 elements, that is:

[tex]T = A_{5} = 5! = 120[/tex]

Desired outcome:

In alphabetical order, so only one possible outcome, which means that [tex]D = 1[/tex]

Probability:

[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1}{120} = 0.008[/tex

1.160 is what percentage of 40? 2.40 is 160% of what number? 3. What number is 40% of 160?​

Answers

1) 400

2) 25

3) 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1. 400%

2. 25

3. 64

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 160 ÷ 40 = 4.00 then move the decimal over two places to the right to get 400 ----> 400%

2. 40 ÷ 160 = 0.25 move the decimal over two places to the left and you get 25

3. 160 ÷ 10 = 16 (10%) 16 x 4= 64 (10% x 4 = 40%)

A can manufacturing company is designing a can of cat food to hold 5.5 oz or about 163 cm(3). They have written out that the equation for the surface area for a can with the volume is S=2pie radius(2) + 163/r. Explain why the equation is wrong and how to fix it.

Answers

Answer:

The correct equation that describes the surface area is [tex]A_{s} = 2\pi \cdot r^{2}+\frac{326}{r}[/tex] and we need to multiply [tex]\frac{163}{r}[/tex] by 2 in the equation described in the statement to correct the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that the can of cat food is a right cylinder. The surface area of the cylinder ([tex]A_{s}[/tex]), measured in square centimeters, is the sum of the areas of the circular walls ([tex]A_{cw}[/tex]) and the non-circular wall ([tex]A_{ncw}[/tex]), both measured in square centimeters. That is:

[tex]A_{s} = 2\cdot A_{cw}+A_{ncw}[/tex] (1)

By Geometry, we expanded the equation above:

[tex]A_{s} = 2\pi\cdot r^{2}+2\pi\cdot r\cdot h[/tex] (1b)

Where:

[tex]r[/tex] - Radius, measured in centimeters.

[tex]h[/tex] - Height, measured in centimeters.

And the volume of the right cylinder ([tex]V[/tex]), measured in cubic cnetimeters, is defined by the following formula:

[tex]V = \pi\cdot r^{2}\cdot h[/tex]

Then, we clear the height of the cylinder within the volume formula:

[tex]h = \frac{V}{\pi\cdot r^{2}}[/tex] (2)

By substituting in (1b), we obtain the following equation:

[tex]A_{s} = 2\pi \cdot r^{2} + 2\pi\cdot r\cdot \left(\frac{V}{\pi\cdot r^{2}} \right)[/tex]

[tex]A_{s} = 2\pi\cdot r^{2}+\frac{2\cdot V}{r}[/tex] (1c)

If we know that [tex]V = 163\,cm^{3}[/tex], then the equation for the surface area of the cylinder is:

[tex]A_{s} = 2\pi \cdot r^{2}+\frac{326}{r}[/tex]

In a nutshell, we need to multiply [tex]\frac{163}{r}[/tex] by 2 to correct the equation.

Ok, you want to put a dot on the -1 going vertically and then go down seven points and one to right, then place a dot.

Answer:

Given function:

y = -7x - 1

This is a linear function. To graph this you need  to plot two different points and connect them with a line.

Examples of the points:

x = 0, theny = -7*0 - 1 = -1

and

x = 1, theny = -7*1 - 1 = -8

So the points are:

(0, -1) and (1, -8)

Answers

Answer:

Shift 4 units down: [tex]g(x) = 2x - 10[/tex]

Stretching f(x) by 4 : [tex]g(x) =8x - 24[/tex]

Shift 4 units left:  [tex]g(x) = 2x - 14[/tex]

Compress by 1/4 units : [tex]g(x) = 8x - 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = 2x - 6[/tex]

Required

Match the transformations (See attachment)

Shift 4 units down

Shifting down a function is represented as:

[tex]g(x) = f(x) - b[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]b = 4[/tex]

Substitute expression for f(x) and 4 for b in [tex]g(x) = f(x) - b[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = 2x - 6 - 4[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = 2x - 10[/tex]

Stretching f(x) by 4

Stretching a function by some units is represented as:

[tex]g(x) =b.f(x)[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]b = 4[/tex]

Substitute expression for f(x) and 4 for b in [tex]g(x) =b.f(x)[/tex]

[tex]g(x) =4 * (2x - 6)[/tex]

[tex]g(x) =8x - 24[/tex]

Shift 4 units left

Shifting a function to the left is represented as:

[tex]g(x) = f(x - b)[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]b = 4[/tex]

Substitute expression for f(x) and 4 for b in [tex]g(x) = f(x - b)[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = f(x-4)[/tex]

Calculating f(x - 4)

[tex]f(x) = 2x - 6[/tex]

[tex]f(x - 4) = 2(x - 4) - 6[/tex]

[tex]f(x - 4) = 2x - 8 - 6[/tex]

[tex]f(x - 4) = 2x - 14[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]g(x) = 2x - 14[/tex]

Compress by 1/4 units

This means that the function is stretched by [tex]1/\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Compressing a function is represented as:

[tex]g(x) =f(bx)[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]b = 1/\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]b = 1 * \frac{4}{1}[/tex]

[tex]b = 4[/tex]

Substitute expression for f(x) and 4 for b in [tex]g(x) =f(bx)[/tex]

[tex]g(x) =f(4x)[/tex]

Calculating f(4x)

[tex]f(4x) = 2(4x) - 6[/tex]

[tex]f(4x) = 8x - 6[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]g(x) = 8x - 6[/tex]

Answer:

  x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

From graph,

             The angle of the triangle ∝ = 45°

   Given hypotenuse of the triangle

              AC = 12√2  and AB = x

Step(ii):-

we will choose sine function

            [tex]sin\alpha = \frac{opposite side}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

            [tex]sin\alpha = \frac{x}{12\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

 Given that an angle ∝ = 45°

           [tex]sin45 = \frac{x}{12\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

           [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } = \frac{x}{12\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

           [tex]\frac{1}{1 } = \frac{x}{12}[/tex]

          x = 12

x = 12

base of flag pole. Find the height of flag.

Answers

Answer:

the height of the flag = 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

inclide ladder length = 15m (hypotenuse)

distance between ladder foot and flag foot= 9m (base)

according to Pythagoras theorem,

(h)^2 = (p)^2 + (b)^2

(15)^2 = (p)^2 + (9)^2

(p)^2 = (15)^2 - (9)^2

(p)^2 = 225-81

p = √144

p= 12 cm
