By using trigonometric relations, we will see that the angle of elevation must be 55°.

<h3>How to find the angle of elevation?</h3>

We can see this as a right triangle, where one cathetus measures 1250ft (altitude) and the other cathetus measures 875ft.

The angle of elevation is the angle such that the adjacent cathetus is the one measuring 875ft.

Then we can use the relation:

tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)

tan(a) = 1250ft/875ft

To find the angle of elevation, we can use the inverse tangent function:

a = Atan(1250ft/875ft) = 55°

The angle of elevation must be 55 degrees.

C2d3 has a solubility product constant of 9.14×10−9. what is the molar solubility of c2d3?

UkoKoshka [18]

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one:

We need to express the ksp expression of C2D3
C2D3
= (2x)2(3x)3
= 108x5 

Then set that equation equal to your solubility constant 

9.14x10-9 = 108x5 
x = 9.67x10-3

So the molar solubility is 9.67x10-3

A California licence plate consists of a sequence of seven symbols: number, letter, letter, letter, number, number, number, wher

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

There is a 44.73% probability that all symbols are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

There are 26 total letters and 10 total digits.

The plate has the following format:

number, letter, letter, letter, number, number, number

Total outcomes

Each number can have 10 values.

Each letter can have 26 values.

There are four numbers and 3 letters.

So there are

$10^{4}*26^{3} = 175760000$ possible plates

Desired outcomes

We cannot have repeated values.

So, for example, the first number can be any of the 10 digits. The second can be any of them, bar the first one. So 9 possible digits

The same logic for the letters, 26, then 25, then 24.

So there are

10*26*25*24*9*8*7 = 78624000 plates in which all symbols are different.

(a) What is the probability that all symbols are different

$P = \frac{78624000}{175760000} = 0.4473$

There is a 44.73% probability that all symbols are different.

Let A and B be nxn matrices such that AB is singular prove that either A or Bis singular

Alex_Xolod [135]

$\det(\mathbf{AB})=\det\mathbf A\times\det\mathbf B$

Because $\mathbf{AB}$ is singular, we have

$\det(\mathbf{AB})=0$

from which it follows that either $\det\mathbf A=0$ or $\det\mathbf B=0$ .
