An oil tank is being filled at a constant rate. The depth of the oil is a function of the number of minutes the tank has been fi

lling, as shown in the table. Find the depth of the oil 45 minutes after filling begins. Time(min) Depth(ft) 0: 3 10:5 15:6 45 minutes after filling begins, the depth of the oil is feet.

An oil tank is being filled at a constant rate.

In 0 minute, the depth of oil in the tank is 3, : (0,3)

In 10 minute, the depth of oil in the tank is 5, : ( 10, 5 )

In 15 minutes, the depth of oil in the tank is 6, : ( 15, 6 )

Since, the oil is filled at the constant rate, so the equation form by the depth of oil with the time is linear equation.

The general expression for the linear equation is :

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

Let x express the time and y express the depth of oil

Substitute any two set of value of time and depth from the table : ( 0, 3) & ( 10, 5 )

\begin{gathered} y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1) \\ y-3=\frac{5-3}{10-0}(x-0) \\ y-3=\frac{2}{10}x \\ y-3=\frac{1}{5}x \\ 5(y-3)=x \\ 5y-15=x \\ x-5y+15=0 \end{gathered}

Since, we need to depth of the oil after, 45 minutes,

Substitute x = 45 in the equation :

\begin{gathered} x-5y+15=0 \\ 45-5y+15=0 \\ 60-5y=0 \\ 5y=60 \\ y=\frac{60}{5} \\ y=12 \end{gathered}

as, y represent the depth of the oil

so, depth of the oil is 12 ft in 45 minutes

45 minutes after filling, the depth of the oil is 12 ft

Answer : 45 minutes after filling, the depth of the oil is 12 ft

Two lines intersect to form angles 1, 2, 3, and 4 as given. The measure of ∠3 is 38°. What is the measure of ​∠2​ ?
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

142° is the measure of angle 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

When two lines intersect, they make four angles. The angles facing each other are equal.

Let's say that two lines a and b intersected each other to make angles 1,2,3 and 4 respectively.

The measure of angle 3 = 38 degrees.

We know that the angle 1 is against angle 3 and is equal to 38.

Also Angle 2 and Angle 4 are also against each other and are equal let's say equal to x degrees.

Now, the sum of all four angles = 360 degrees

∠1 + ∠2+ ∠3 + ∠4 = 360°

38° + x + 38° + x = 360°

2x = 360° - 76°

2x = 284°

x = 142°

Hence, ∠2 = 142°

X = ? y = ? 16 45 degrees
mezya [45]

Let's put more details in the figure to better understand the problem:

Let's first recall the three main trigonometric functions:

\text{ Sine }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Opposite Side}}{\text{ Hypotenuse}}\text{ Cosine }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Adjacent Side}}{\text{ Hypotenuse}}\text{ Tangent }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Opposite Side}}{\text{ Adjacent Side}}

For x, we will be using the Cosine Function:

\text{ Cosine }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Adjacent Side}}{\text{ Hypotenuse}}Cosine(45^{\circ})\text{ = }\frac{\text{ x}}{\text{ 1}6}(16)Cosine(45^{\circ})\text{ =  x}(16)(\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{2}})\text{ = x}\text{ }\frac{16}{\sqrt[]{2}}\text{ x }\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{\sqrt[]{2}}\text{ = }\frac{16\sqrt[]{2}}{2}\text{ 8}\sqrt[]{2}\text{ = x}

Therefore, x = 8√2.

For y, we will be using the Sine Function.

\text{  Sine }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Opposite Side}}{\text{ Hypotenuse}}\text{ Sine }(45^{\circ})\text{ = }\frac{\text{ y}}{\text{ 1}6}\text{ (16)Sine }(45^{\circ})\text{ =  y}\text{ (16)(}\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{2}})\text{ = y}\text{ }\frac{16}{\sqrt[]{2}}\text{ x }\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{\sqrt[]{2}}\text{ = }\frac{16\sqrt[]{2}}{2}\text{ 8}\sqrt[]{2}\text{ = y}

Therefore, y = 8√2.

[6+4=10 points] Problem 2. Suppose that there are k people in a party with the following PMF: • k = 5 with probability 1 4 • k =
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

1). 0.903547

2). 0.275617

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given :

K people in a party with the following :

i). k = 5 with the probability of $\frac{1}{4}$

ii). k = 10 with the probability of $\frac{1}{4}$

iii). k = 10 with the probability $\frac{1}{2}$

So the probability of at least two person out of the 'n' born people in same month is  = 1 - P (none of the n born in the same month)

= 1 - P (choosing the n different months out of 365 days) = 1-\frac{_{n}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^2}

1). Hence P(at least 2 born in the same month)=P(k=5 and at least 2 born in the same month)+P(k=10 and at least 2 born in the same month)+P(k=15 and at least 2 born in the same month)

= \frac{1}{4}\times (1-\frac{_{5}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^5})+\frac{1}{4}\times (1-\frac{_{10}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^{10}})+\frac{1}{2}\times (1-\frac{_{15}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^{15}})

= 0.25 \times 0.618056 + 0.25 \times 0.996132 + 0.5 \times 1

= 0.903547

2).P( k = 10|at least 2 share their birthday in same month)

=P(k=10 and at least 2 born in the same month)/P(at least 2 share their birthday in same month)

= $0.25 \times \frac{0.996132}{0.903547}$

= 0.0.275617

3x * 3x = 9x

9x + 6 - 2x + 5x - 4x^2 + 9

9x + 6 - 7x - 4x * 4x + 9

9x + 6 - 7x - 16x + 9

9x + -7x = 2x + 6 - 16x + 9

2x + 6 - 16x + 9

2x + (-3) - 16x
