I found this!!!!
The scientist can use these two measurements to calculate the distance between the Sun and the shooting star by applying one of the trigonometric functions: Cosine of an angle.
- The scientist can substitute these measurements into cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}cosα=
hypotenuse
adjacent
and solve for the distance between the Sun and the shooting star (which would be the hypotenuse of the righ triangle).
Step-by-step explanation:
You can observe in the figure attached that "AC" is the distance between the Sun and the shooting star.
Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Sun "y" and the angle x°, the scientist can use only these two measurements to calculate the distance between the Sun and the shooting star by applying one of the trigonometric functions: Cosine of an angle.
This is:
cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}cosα=
hypotenuse
adjacent
In this case:
\begin{gathered}\alpha=x\°\\\\adjacent=BC=y\\\\hypotenuse=AC\end{gathered}
α=x\°
adjacent=BC=y
hypotenuse=AC
Therefore, the scientist can substitute these measurements into cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}cosα=
hypotenuse
adjacent
, and solve for the distance between the Sun and the shooting star "AC":
cos(x\°)=\frac{y}{AC}cos(x\°)=
AC
y
AC=\frac{y}{cos(x\°)}AC=
cos(x\°)
y
Answer:
a) 0.0025
b) 0.9975
c) 23.03 minutes
d) 23.03 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the random variable that measures the time waited for a taxi.
If X is exponentially distributed with a mean of 10 minutes,then the probability that you have to wait more than t minutes is
a)
1 hour = 60 minutes, so the probability that you wait longer than one hour is
b)
Due to the “memorylessness” of the exponential distribution, the probability that you have to wait 10 or less minutes after you have already waited for one hour, is the same as the probability that you have to wait 10 or less minutes
c)
We want x so that
P(X>x)=0.1
d)
We want P(X<x)=0.9
Your answer is d Its on the fourth quadrant! that Is really easy!
Answer:
(7,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 9 + 2x - 3y = 8 is really two equations, and you should show this by separating x + y = 9 from 2x - 3y = 8 through the use of a comma, or the word "and," or through writing only one equation per line.
Here you have the system of linear equations
x + y = 9
2x - 3y = 8.
Let's solve this system by elimination. Mult. the 1st eqn by 3, obtaining the system
3x + 3y = 27
2x - 3y = 8
-------------------
5x = 35, so that x = 7. Subbing 7 for x in x + y = 9, we get 7 + y = 9, indicating that y = 2.
Thus, the solution to this system of equations is (7,2).
Answer is A. It is the center of the circle that can be inscribed in a given triangle
Explanation
The circumcenter is called ”the circumcenter” because it is the center of the circle that ”circumscribes” the triangle.
