Answer:

the submarine is 92.994 feet ≈ 93 feet deep from the surface of the water

Step-by-step explanation:

We can think in a triangle where the hypotenuse is the detection distance and the angle with the horizontal surface of water is the depression angle, then the underwater distance is the vertical side of the triangle.

If we denote Ф  as the angle of depression ,d as the detection distance and x as the unknown depth of the submarine, using trigonometry:

x = d* sin Ф

thus

x=  d * sin Ф = 238 feet * sin 23° = 92.994 feet ≈ 93 feet

There are two calculus classes at your school. Both classes have a class average of 75.5. The first class has a standard deviati
Korvikt [17]
To compare the two classes, the Coefficient of Variation (COV) can be used. The formula for COV is this:
C = s / x
where s is the standard deviation and x is the mean
For the first class:
C1 = 10.2 / 75.5
C1 = 0.1351 (13.51%)

For the second class:
C2 = 22.5 / 75.5
C2 = 0.2980 (29.80%)

The COV is a test of homogeneity. Looking at the values, the first class has more students having a grade closer to the average than the second class.

How can you use multiplication in your everyday life?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

On kitchen. Yes. there also we use multiplication. If we are trying to cook something from the recipe website, they tell to add 1 glass of water for 100 gm of rice. But we measure the amount of water based on the quantity of the rice. It’s simple multiplication.

Travelling with your friends. If we are travelling with our friends in a public transport facility like bus or metro, we need to buy multiple tickets. There we need to do multiplication.
