The horizontal distance from the base of the skyscraper out to the ship is 485.2 feet.

<h3>What is trigonometric ratio?</h3>

Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides and angles of right angled triangle.

Let d represent the horizontal distance from the base of the skyscraper out to the ship. Since the angle of depression is 67°, hence:

Angle = 90 - 67 = 23°

Using trig ratio:

tan(23) = d/1143

d = 485.2 feet

The horizontal distance from the base of the skyscraper out to the ship is 485.2 feet.

What is the probability that a randomly selected graduate has a job if he or she is attending college? Give your answer as
Andrej [43]

Complete question :

Suppose that of the 300 seniors who graduated from Schwarzchild High School last spring, some have jobs, some are attending college, and some are doing both. The following Venn diagram shows the number of graduates in each category. What is the probability that a randomly selected graduate has a job if he or she is attending college? Give your answer as a decimal precise to two decimal places.

What is the probability that a randomly selected graduate attends college if he or she has a job? Give your answer as a decimal precise to two decimal places.

Answer:

0.56 ; 0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

From The attached Venn diagram :

C = attend college ; J = has a job

P(C) = (35+45)/300 = 80/300 = 8/30

P(J) = (30+45)/300 = 75/300 = 0.25

P(C n J) = 45 /300 = 0.15

1.)

P(J | C) = P(C n J) / P(C)

P(J | C) = 0.15 / (8/30)

P(J | C) = 0.5625 = 0.56

2.)

P(C | J) = P(C n J) / P(J)

P(C | J) = 0.15 / (0.25)

P(C | J) = 0.6 = 0.60
