Tan(Θ)=(h/distance from base)
Θ=13 degrees, 1mile=5280 ft
tan(13)=(h/5280 ft)
5280tan(13)=h
h=1218.984049
h=1219 ft

2x^2 -33 =392x^2 =72 x^2 =36x=6 RYan worked the following problem. He made an error. What is the correct answer.
Marrrta [24]

When we find the square root of a number we get 2 options, the positive and the negative one, for example:

\begin{gathered} \sqrt{16}=4 \\ or \\ \sqrt{16}=-4 \end{gathered}

Therefore, Ryan made an error in the last step because x is equal to 6 or x is equal to -6:

\begin{gathered} x^2=36 \\ x=\sqrt{36} \\ x=6 \\ or \\ x=-6 \end{gathered}

Two cards are chosen from a standard deck of 52 playing cards without replacement. What is the probability that the first card i
Rashid [163]

For the first draw, the probability of an ace is ( 4 / 52 ).

Now there are only 51 cards left in the deck.

For the second draw, the probability of a king is  ( 4 / 51 ).

The probability of both events is

(4/52) (4/41) = (16/2,652)

Divide top and bottom by 4:

(16/2,652) = <em>4/663</em> .  That's <em>choice-C </em>.
