Answer:

angle of depression ≈ 53.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

the angle of depression is the measure of the angle from the horizontal downwards from the top of the flag pole.

this angle is alternate to ∠ A and is congruent to ∠ A

using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin A = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{25}{31}$ , then

∠ A = $sin^{-1}$ ( $\frac{25}{31}$ ) ≈ 53.8° ( to 1 d.p )

Angle of depression ≈ 53.8°

Use two unit multipliers to convert 135 square miles to square feet

Inessa [10]

You only need one of them:

   (135 mile²) x (5,280 feet/mile)²

   = (135 mile²) x (27,878,400 feet²/mile²)

   = (135 x 27,878,400) mile² - feet² / mile²

   = 3,763,584,000 feet²

The probability that a male will be colorblind is .042. Find the probabilities that in a group of 53 men, the following are true

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

See below for answers and explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

$\displaystyle P(X=x)=\binom{n}{x}p^xq^{n-x}\\\\P(X=5)=\binom{53}{5}(0.042)^5(1-0.042)^{53-5}\\\\P(X=5)=\frac{53!}{(53-5)!*5!}(0.042)^5(0.958)^{48}\\\\P(X=5)\approx0.0478$

Part B

$P(X\leq5)=P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)\\\\P(X\leq5)=\binom{53}{1}(0.042)^1(1-0.042)^{53-1}+\binom{53}{2}(0.042)^2(1-0.042)^{53-2}+\binom{53}{3}(0.042)^3(1-0.042)^{53-3}+\binom{53}{4}(0.042)^4(1-0.042)^{53-4}+\binom{53}{1}(0.042)^5(1-0.042)^{53-5}\\\\P(X\leq5)\approx0.9767$

Part C

$\displaystyle P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X=0)\\\\P(X\geq1)=1-(1-0.042)^{53}\\\\P(X\geq1)\approx1-0.1029\\\\P(X\geq1)\approx0.8971$
