Answer:
22.9 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Since b² = a² - c² where a = vertex of major axis, 2a = 50 yards the length of the major axis. So , a = 50/2 = 25 yards. c = focus of chamber = 10 yards from center and b = vertex of minor axis.
So, b = ±√(a² - c²)
= ±√(25² - 10²)
= ±√(625 - 100)
= ±√525
= ±22.91 yards
≅ ± 22.9 yards
Since b = length of minor axis from center of chamber = 22.91 yards. So, he should build the whisper chamber 22.9 yards out from the center of the chamber.

x=180-165
x=15
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior and exterior angle of a polygon is supplementary
let interior be I
let exterior be E
I + E = 180
Since the interior angle is 8 times that of an exterior angle,
8E + E = 180 [replacing I with 8E]
9E = 180
E = 20
The exterior angle is 20 degrees
I + E = 180
I + 20 = 180
I = 160
The interior angle is 160 degrees.
The equation to find the interior angle of a polygon with 'n' number of sides is:
I = ( (n − 2) × 180 ) ⁄ n
We know the interior angle, so plug it in and solve for n:
160 = ( (n − 2) × 180 ) ⁄ n
160n = (n − 2) × 180
160n = 180n − 360
-20n = -360
n = 18
16--(3) $17
17--(3) $64
18--(2) $18
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is not complete. A complete question is in the form:
A letter is chosen at random from the letters of the word EXCELLENT. Find the probability that letter chosen is i) a vowel ii) a consonant.
Solution:
The total number of letters found in the word EXCELLENT = 9
i) The number of vowel letters found in the word EXCELLENT = {E, E, E} = 3
Hence, probability that letter chosen is a vowel = number of vowels / total number of letters = 3 / 9 = 1 / 3
probability that letter chosen is a vowel = 1/3 = 0.333 = 33.3%
ii) The number of consonant letters found in the word EXCELLENT = {X, C, L, L, N, T} = 6
Hence, probability that letter chosen is a consonant = number of consonant / total number of letters = 6 / 9 = 2 / 3
probability that letter chosen is a consonant = 2/3 = 0.667 = 66.7%
