The closest distance up the tree where the wire reaches is 17.93 foot.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Length of the wire, L = 12 foot

angle, Ф= 48°

Distance upto which the wire reaches the tree, x = ?

We know,

cos Ф = base/ hypotenuse

cos 48° = 12/ x

0.669 = 12/x

x = 17.93 foot

Therefore, the closest distance up the tree where the wire reaches is 17.93 foot.

In the diagram, ΔGHJ ≅ ΔSTU.
Anna007 [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

angle J is also 67 deg since the triangle is an isosceles triangle

angle T is 67 deg since the 2 triangles are congruent

angle G = 180 - 2x67 = 46 deg

ST is 5cm

HJ is 3.7cm

stich3 [128]

The probability of winning a lottery by selecting the correct six integers, are

\begin{aligned}&(a) 1.68 \times 10^{-6} \\&(b) 5.13 \times 10^{-7} \\& (c) 1.91 \times 10^{-7} \\&(d)8.15 \times 10^{-8}\end{aligned}

<h3>What is binomial distribution?</h3>

The binomial distribution is a type of probability distribution that expresses the probability that, given a certain set of characteristics or assumptions, a value would take one of two distinct values.

Part (a); positive integers not exceeding 30.

To calculate the probability, use binomial coefficients. Pick six of the six accurate integers and none of the other twenty-four.

\frac{\left(\begin{array}{c}6 \\6\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}24 \\0\end{array}\right)}{\left(\begin{array}{c}30 \\6\end{array}\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(\begin{array}{c}30 \\6\end{array}\right)}=1.68 \times 10^{-6}

Part (b); positive integers not exceeding 36.

To calculate the probability, use binomial coefficients. Pick six of the six accurate integers and none of the other thirty.

\frac{\left(\begin{array}{l}6 \\6\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}30 \\0\end{array}\right)}{\left(\begin{array}{c}36 \\6\end{array}\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(\begin{array}{c}36 \\6\end{array}\right)}=5.13 \times 10^{-7}

Part (c); positive integers not exceeding 42.

To calculate the probability, use binomial coefficients. Pick six of the six accurate integers and none of the 36 other integers.

\frac{\left(\begin{array}{l}6 \\6\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}36 \\0\end{array}\right)}{\left(\begin{array}{c}42 \\6\end{array}\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(\begin{array}{c}42 \\6\end{array}\right)}=1.91 \times 10^{-7}

Part (d); positive integers not exceeding 48.

To calculate the probability, use binomial coefficients. Choose six of the six accurate integers and none of the other 42.

\frac{\left(\begin{array}{l}6 \\6\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}42 \\0\end{array}\right)}{\left(\begin{array}{c}48 \\6\end{array}\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(\begin{array}{c}48 \\6\end{array}\right)}=8.15 \times 10^{-8}
