Answer:

24.315°

Step-by-step explanation:

First use the pythagorean theorem to get the missing side since this is a right triangle.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 →

b^2 = c^2 – a^2 →

b = (c^2 – a^2)^½

b = (17^2 – 7^2)^½

b = (289 – 49)^½

b = √240.

Then use the law of cosines to find the angle in between.

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac * cos(B) →

b^2 - a^2 - c^2 = -2ac * cos(B) →

a^2 + c^2 – b^2 / 2ac = cos(B) →

cos^-1(a^2 + c ^2 – b^2 / 2ac) = C →

B = cos^-1(a^2 + c ^2 – b^2 / 2ac)

B = cos^-1(49 + 289 – √240 / 238)

B ≈ 75.685°.

A = 180 – B

A = 180 – 75.685

A = 24.315°

write an expression for add 2 and 4 and multiply the sum by 3 next add 5 to that product in double the results

Rzqust [24]

So let's start from the beginning.

Add 2 and 4:

(2 + 4)

Multiply the sum by 3:

3(2 + 4)

Then add 5 to that product:

3(2 + 4) + 5

Then double the results:

2[3(2 + 4) + 5]

If men having High Blood Sugar problems are diagnosed with Diabetes, with the mean blood sugar level to be at 150 and a standard

frutty [35]

Answer:

0.0062

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the diagnosed blood sugar level.

Probability of committing a Type II error = Probability of failing to detect the disease when the person has the disease = Probability that the diagnosed blood sugar level is less than or equal to 125 =

$P(X \le 125 |\mu = 150)$
