Answer:

749 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a right-angle triangle so you can use trig ratios

750 feet

tan(59) = opposite/adjacent

tan(59l = X/450

X = 450×tan(59)

X = 748.9 ft

X = 749 ft (correct to 3 sf)

Manny can assemble a computer by himself in 50 minutes. Lucy does the same job in 45 minutes. How long will it take to assemble
jonny [76]
Manny can assemble a computer in 50 minutes. That means, in a minute Manny does \frac{1}{50} job.

Lucy can assemble a computer in 45 minutes. That means, in a minute Lucy does \frac{1}{45} job.

If they are working together, in a minute they will do:
\dfrac{1}{50} + \dfrac{1}{45}
= \dfrac{9}{450} + \dfrac{10}{450} \text{(equalize the denominator)}
=\dfrac{19}{450}
In a minute they will do \frac{19}{450} job

To finish the job they will do it in \frac{450}{19} minutes or about 24 minutes.

If P(E) = 0.32, then what are the odds against E?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

0.68 : 0.32

Step-by-step explanation:

the probability of all the outcomes of an event is always 1 .

if P(E) = 0.32,

P(E') = 1 - 0.32

= 0.68

N.B that P(E') is the same as P( not E ).

since your answer should be given in the ratio form, as the odds against E ( probability not E : probability E),

P(E') : P(E)

0.68 : 0.32

hope this helps you!
