The length of the shadow is 14.2 m

Right angle triangle:

Right angle triangle has one of its sides as 90 degrees.

The height of the building is the opposite side of the triangle.

The distance from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow is 35 m is the hypotenuse side.

The length of the shadow is the adjacent side of the triangle.

Therefore,

c² = a² + b²

b² = 35² - 32²

b² = 1225 - 1024

b² = 201

b = √201

b = 14.17

b = 14.2 m

Hence the length of the shadow is 14.2 m.

Q2) What are the rules for probability distributions ? I​
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Probability Distributions

A listing of all the values the random variable can assume with their corresponding probabilities make a probability distribution.

A note about random variables. A random variable does not mean that the values can be anything (a random number). Random variables have a well defined set of outcomes and well defined probabilities for the occurrence of each outcome. The random refers to the fact that the outcomes happen by chance -- that is, you don't know which outcome will occur next.

Please help with the following question
sasho [114]
  We have:
  The generic equation of the line is:  y-yo = m (x-xo)
  The slope is:
  m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
  m = (- 2-0) / (3-0)
  m = -2 / 3
  We choose an ordered pair
  (xo, yo) = (0, 0)
  Substituting values:
  y-0 = (- 2/3) (x-0)
  Rewriting:
  y = (- 2/3) x
  Answer:
  The equation of the line is:
  y = (- 2/3) x

A conductor needs 5 cellists and 5 violinists to play at a diplomatic event. to do this, he ranks the orchestra's 10 cellists an
DaniilM [7]
Ranking is very critical in this problem. Therefore, the most applicable mathematical theory is permutations.

Ranking possible for the cellists:
Needed cellists = 5
Total available cellists = 10
Possible number of rankings = 10P5 = 10!/(10-5)! = 30240

Ranking possible for the violinists:
Needed violinists = 5
Total available = 16
Possible number of rankings = 16P5 = 16!/(16-5)! = 524160

Therefore,
Ratio of rankings (cellists to violinists) = 30240/524160 = 3/52
