Answer:
a) x=-1.5
b) x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
The axis of symmetry is what straight line would divide the parabola directly in half.
If 2 triangles are similar, the ratio of one side of the triangle to the corresponding side of the other is always same for all 3 sides.
We can make use of this rule to calculate the length of sides.
From the image,
3 / 15 = 6 / x
Simplify,
1 / 5 = 6 / x
Use cross method to solve this.
5 x 6 = 1 x x
X = 30
Therefore the length of x is 30ft., A.
You can let the sides be a and b. You can then use the Law of Sines to create an equation relating the two sides and the angles opposite them, and finally isolate a/b.
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
All computer simulations are designed to test a large number of different scenarios with various sets of data in order to understand each output that certain data generates and ultimately find the best solution. This is the overall main reason why simulations are created. The same applies in this scenario, this simulation will be used to test hypotheses about patterns in the job placement process that are costly or time-consuming to observe in reality. If such tests had to be conducted by actual people it would take months, years, or even decades to generate and analyze all the data.
