Answer: a) 5562 feet b) 0 feet

Step-by-Step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of city above sea level = 5280 feet

Elevation of death valley = -282 feet

A) how many feet higher is denver than death valley?.

Difference between both the elevation is given by

5280-(-282)\\\\=5280+282\\\\=5562\ feet

B. what would your elevation be if you were standing near the ocean?

If he were standing near the ocean, then the elevation would be 0 feet.

Hence, a) 5562 feet b) 0 feet

A. Note that you are subtracting 5280 with -282

5280 - (-282) = 5280 + 282 = 5562

Denver is 5562 feet taller than death valley

B. your elevation should be ~ 0 feet if you are standing near the ocean, for ocean level is 0 feet.


hope this helps

A real estate agent has 12 properties that she shows. She feels that there is a 30% chance of selling any one property during a
Ronch [10]

Answer:

0.2528 = 25.28% probability of selling no more than 2 properties in one week.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each property, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are sold, or they are not. The chance of selling any one property is independent of selling another property, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

A real estate agent has 12 properties that she shows.

This means that n = 12

She feels that there is a 30% chance of selling any one property during a week.

This means that p = 0.3

Compute the probability of selling no more than 2 properties in one week.

2 or less sold, which is:

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{12} = 0.0138

P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{11} = 0.0712

P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{10} = 0.1678

Then

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0138 + 0.0712 + 0.1678 = 0.2528

0.2528 = 25.28% probability of selling no more than 2 properties in one week.

a ship leave port p and sails on a bearing N50 degree E to Port Q 15km away.then it sails on a bearing of S45 degree E to Port R
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Port r is 100° from Port p and 26km from Port p

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets note the dimension.

From p to q = 15 km = a

From q to r = 20 km= b

Angle at q = 50° + 45°

Angle at q = 95°

Ley the unknown distance be x

Distance from p to r is the unknown.

The formula to be applied is

X²= a²+ b² - 2abcosx

X²= 15² + 20² - 2(15)(20)cos95

X²= 225+400-(-52.29)

X²= 677.29

X= 26.02

X is approximately 26 km

To know it's direction from p

20/sin p = 26/sin 95

Sin p= 20/26 * sin 95

Sin p = 0.7663

P= 50°

So port r is (50+50)° from Port p

And 26 km far from p

Convert 5 square root of a into exponential form?
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The answer is:  " 5a^\frac{1}{2} "  .

_____________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

______________________________________________

We are asked to convert "5 square root of a"  ;  into "exponential form".

Note that "5 square root of a" ;

             or;  " 5 root a " ;

means:    " 5 times the {square root of the variable, "a" };

      or :    " 5 multiplied by the {square root of the variable, "a" }.

_______________________________________________

This can be written as:   " 5\sqrt{a} " .

_______________________________________________

<u>Note the following property of exponents</u>:

\sqrt[n]{a^m} = (\sqrt[n]{a})^m = a^m^n .

_____________________________________________

So;  to write:  " √a "  ;  <u> </u><em><u>as an exponent</u></em><u> </u> :

______________________________________________

<u>Note</u>:  

" \sqrt{a}  = \sqrt[2]{a} =   \sqrt[2]{a^1} = (\sqrt[2]{a})^1 =  a^\frac{1}{2} " .

_______________________________________________

<u>So</u>:

" \sqrt{a}  =  a^\frac{1}{2} "  ;

_______________________________________________

<u>And</u>:

________________________________________________

" 5\sqrt{a}  =  5a^\frac{1}{2} " .

________________________________________________

   →   The answer is:  " 5a^\frac{1}{2} " .

________________________________________________

Hope this helps!

   Best wishes in your academic endeavors
