The distance between the building and the ladder is 34.876 foot.

<h3>What is a Right Triangle?</h3>

A triangle in which one of the angle measure is equal to 90 degree is called a right triangle.

The ladder forms a right triangle with the building and the ground,

The length of the triangle is 40 foot

The angle made by the ladder is 29.32 degree

By using Trigonometric Ratios

cos 29.32 = Base /  Hypotenuse

cos 29.32 = Base / 40

0.8718 × 40 = Base

Base = 34.876 foot

Base is the distance between the building and the ladder.

Base of the ladder = 34.876 foot

Number of passengers who arrive at the platform in an Amtrack train station for the 2 pm train on a Saturday is a random variabl
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

P(80

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-4

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the number of passengers who arrive at the platform of a population, and for this case we know the following info

Where \mu=180 and \sigma=25

We are interested on this probability

P(80

For this case we can assume that the random variable is normally distributed.

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(80

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-4

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(-4

Point B is on line segment AC . Given AB=3x,AB=3x, BC=4x+8,BC=4x+8, and AC=5x+10,AC=5x+10, determine the numerical length of AC
kolezko [41]

Answer:

AC = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4x + 8 = 5x + 10

7x + 8 = 5x + 10

2x + 8 = 10

2x = 2

x = 1

5(1) + 10 = 15

Free fall reaches 216km per hour. What is rate in meters per second.? How many meters fall during 20 seconds free fall?
lakkis [162]

Given,

Rate of free fall = 216 km/h

Solution,

km/h to m/s is converted as follows :

216\ \dfrac{km}{h}=216\times \dfrac{1000\ m}{3600\ s}\\\\=60\ m/s

So, the rate of fall is 60 m/s.

If t = 20 s

Assume, initial velocity = 0

It will move under the action of gravity.

Using equation of motion,

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times 20^2\\\\h=2000\ m

Hence, this is all for the solution.
