A rescue helicopter flew from its home base for 35 kilometers on a course of 330 degrees to pick up an accident victim. It then

flew 25 kilometers on the course of 90 degrees to the hospital. what distance and on what course will the helicopter fly to return directly to its home base?

I've drawn a triangle to represent the journey (see attached.

The angle from Home to Victim to Hospital is:

a = 90 - (360 - 330) = 90- 30 = 60^o

Using the cos rule, we can solve for the length x:

a^2 = b^2 +c^2 - 2bccosA
\\x^2 = 35^2+25^2-2(35)(25)cos60
\\x^2 = 1850 - 875
\\x^2 =  975
\\x =  \sqrt{975}
\\x = 31.2249...

Using the cos rule, we can solve for angle b:

a^2 = b^2 +c^2 - 2bccosA
\\35^2 = 31.22...^2+25^2-2(31.22...)(25)cosb
\\1225 = 975 + 625 - 1561.249...cosb
\\-375 = -1561.249...cosb
\\b = cos^{-1}( \frac{-375}{-1561.249...}) 
\\b = 76.1...

So the bearing the helicopter has to travel is:

270 - 76.1 = <u>193.9 degrees (1 dp)</u>

And the distance it travels is <u>31.2 km (1 dp)</u>

If two dice are thrown whats si the probability that they will add to 9?A2/36B3/36C3/36D4/36
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

D.\frac{4}{36}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution,

Two dice are thrown.

So we have to find out the total number of outcomes.

(1,1),\ (1,2),\ (1,3),\ (1,4),\ (1,5),\ (1,6)

(2,1),\ (2,2),\ (2,3),\ (2,4),\ (2,5),\ (2,6)

(3,1),\ (3,2),\ (3,3),\ (3,4),\ (3,5),\ (3,6)

(4,1),\ (4,2),\ (4,3),\ (4,4),\ (4,5),\ (4,6)

(5,1),\ (5,2),\ (5,3),\ (5,4),\ (5,5),\ (5,6)

(6,1),\ (6,2),\ (6,3),\ (6,4),\ (6,5),\ (6,6)

The total number of outcomes = 36

We have to find out the probability of outcomes that add up to 9.

So, Possible outcomes are;

<u>(3,6),\ (4,5),\ (5,4),\ (6,3)</u>

The total number of possible outcomes = 4

Now, according to the formula of probability,

P(E)=\frac{Total\ number\ of\ Possible\ outcomes}{Total\ Number\ of\ outcomes}

P(of\ add\ up\ to\ 9)=\frac{4}{36}

Hence the correct option is D)4/36.

The graph of the function, f(x)=-2x^2+6x-3,opens up or down and has a minimum or maximum value.
Volgvan

it opens down because before x^2 is -2 (if it would be 2, it would open up)...and function, which opens up has a maximum value every time
