Answer:
The boat is approximately 338.74 feet from the base of the cliff. If the problem suggests rounding to the nearest whole number, you should use 339 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's draw the right angle triangle associated with the problem (see attached image). Notice that the 305 ft height corresponds to the "opposite side" to the given acute angle of
, and that the distance we need to find is the "adjacent" side to the given acute angle. Therefore, the appropriate trigonometric function to use is the "tangent", given that from it we can solve for the unknown adjacent side "x":

Answer:
0.969
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Mean lifetime (m) = 520 hours
Variance = 900
Hence, standard deviation (s) = √900 = 30
Probability that bulb will last for at most 576 hours
X ≤ 576
Obtain the standardized score :
Using the relation :
Zscore = (x - m) / s
Zscore = (576 - 520) / 30
Zscore = 56 / 30
Zscore = 1.867
P(Z ≤ 1.867) : using the z probability calculator ;
P(Z ≤ 1.867) = 0.96905
Hence, P(Z ≤ 1.867) = 0.969
Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that x and y are two variables. they are related by the function
y =8-2x
Since x and y are related, given one value we can find the other using this equation.
In our question, given that x =8
Substitute x value in the equation
y = 8-2x
y =8-2(8) = -8
Hence answer is -8:
Verify: We verify by putting -8 for y and check whether x =8
-8=8-2x
Or 2x = 16
x =8
Verified
<12 would be A (51 degrees) because 2 and 10 are corresponding angles and there are 180 degrees on a straight line!
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
x is greater than or equal to -8
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply by 2 to get the x alone, and you have your answer.
