Answer:
a) θ=151.84°, b) t=53.73hr
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Ok, so the very first thing we need to do when solving this problem is to draw a diagram of what the situation looks like. (See attached picture). This will help us visualize the problem better and determine what to do in order to solve it.
Notice that the ship will take a triangular path, so we can analyze it as if we were talking about a triangle. So the very first thing we need to do is find the length of side b.
We know the ship is traveling at 10knots=10 mi/hr, so we can use the following ratio to find the distance:
when solving for the distance we get that:
distance=Velocity*time
since the ship will travel for 7 hours in that direction, we get that the distance it travels is:
b=10mi/hr*7hr=70mi
Once we found that distance, we can calculate the distance for side c of the triangle by using the law of cosines
which can be solved for c, so we get:
since we know all those values, we can directly plug them in, so we get:
which yields:
c=537.37mi
Once we know the length of c, we can use the law of sines to find angle α.
Like this:
which we can solve for α:
so
so we get the angle to be:
α=28.16°
now, since we are interested in finding the angle it has to turn from its origional course, we can now subtract that angle from 180° to get.
θ=180°-28.16°=151.84°
b) in order to find the time it takes to reach Barbados after the final turn is made we just need to use the velocity ratio again, but this time solve for t:
when solving for t we get:
so when substituting the values we get:
so
t=53.73 hr
Answer: we need to survey 2285 Americans.
Step-by-step explanation:
When population proportion (p) is known, then the formula to evaluate the sample size( minimum) is given by :-
, where E = margin of error , z* = critical z-value.
Given: p= 0.61, E=0.02, Critical z value for 95% = 1.96
Required sample size:
Hence, we need to survey 2285 Americans.
