Hey there! :D
So, we know that there are 3 z's and 3 6's.
3*z= 3z
6*3= 18
3(z+6) <== equivalent expression
3z+18 <== equivalent expression
z is by itself. It shouldn't combine. It should stay the same. 6 as a unit is separate from z.
Choices "B" and "E" are correct.
I hope this helps!

Answer: The minimum reliability for the second stage be 0.979.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Probability for the overall rocket reliable for a successful mission = 97%
Probability for the first stage = 99%
We need to find the minimum reliability for the second stage :
So, it becomes:
P(overall reliability) = P(first stage ) × P(second stage)

Hence, the minimum reliability for the second stage be 0.979.

Answer:
In fact, the AB could be calculated in a quickest way, using Pythagorean theorem. In here, we try to use the property of trigonometry to work out AB.
Before applying trigonometry, in this right triangle we can calculate the remaining angle C:
C = 180 - 90 - A = 180 - 90 - 53.13 = 36.87 deg
We can use cosine formula, but here we use the sine formula for the sake of convenience. We have:
sine(angle measure) = ratio of opposite side over hypotenuse
In detail, sineC = AB/BC
Then, we have: AB = BC x sineC = 15 x sin(36.87 deg) = 9.000002 = ~9 ft
Hope this helps!
