Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the tan ratio of the angle of elevation :

tan 49° = h/900
1.15 = h/900
h = 1.15 × 900
h = <u>1035 feet</u>

Height is h

tanO=Perpendicular/Base
tan49=h/900
h=900tan49
h=1035.3=1035ft

Three of the choices are ways to express 0.50. Which is NOT?

Ganezh [65]

Option B

5 hundredths is not the way to express 0.50

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Three of the choices are ways to express 0.50

To find: wrong option

Let us first write 0.50 in different ways

<h3><em><u>To convert a Decimal to a Fraction follow these steps: </u></em></h3>

Step 1: Write down the decimal divided by 1, like this: decimal 1.

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. ...

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the fraction.

$\rightarrow 0.50 = \frac{0.50 \times 100}{100} = \frac{50}{100}$

$\frac{50}{100}$ means 50 hundredths

<h3>Therefore option D is correct</h3>

On simplifying $\frac{50}{100}$ we can write,

$\rightarrow \frac{50}{100} = \frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}$ means one half

<h3>Therefore option A (one half) is correct</h3>

Similarly, \frac{5}{10} means 5 tenths

<h3>Therefore Option C is also correct</h3>

Thus the wrong option is B

<em><u>Justification:</u></em>

5 hundredths can be written as:

$\frac{5}{100} = 0.05$

Therefore option B is wrong

A test has 20 true/false questions. What is the probability that a student passes the test if they guess the answers? Passing me

Minchanka [31]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that:

The probability that the student will get 15 correct questions in this test by guessing is 0.0207 = 2.07%.

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes, either the guess is correct, or it is not. The guess on a question is independent of any other question, hence, the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.

n is the number of trials.

p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

There are 20 questions, hence $n = 20$ .

Each question has 2 options, one of which is correct, hence $p = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5$

The probability is:

$P(X \geq 15) = P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20)$

In which:

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 15) = C_{20,15}.(0.5)^{15}.(0.5)^{5} = 0.0148$

$P(X = 16) = C_{20,16}.(0.5)^{16}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.0046$

$P(X = 17) = C_{20,17}.(0.5)^{17}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.0011$

$P(X = 18) = C_{20,18}.(0.5)^{18}.(0.5)^{2} = 0.0002$

$P(X = 16) = C_{20,19}.(0.5)^{19}.(0.5)^{1} = 0$

$P(X = 17) = C_{20,20}.(0.5)^{20}.(0.5)^{0} = 0$

Then:

$P(X \geq 15) = P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18) + P(X = 19) + P(X = 20) = 0.0148 + 0.0046 + 0.0011 + 0.0002 + 0 + 0 = 0.0207$

The probability that the student will get 15 correct questions in this test by guessing is 0.0207 = 2.07%.

S(t)=9t-4, find S(4)

melamori03 [73]

For this problem, you need to substitute 4 in for your variable t. the original equation is S(t) and the one you need is S(4) -- in other words, evaluate this equation when t = 4.

S(4) = 9(4) - 4
S(4) = 36 - 4
S(4) = 32 is your answer.
