The answer to this question is 5a^2-6a+20+(-175a+102)over(5a^2+6a-9)
Answer:
a) 52.5 ft. b)40.1ft c)12.5ft d) 72.6
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The height of the lighthouse is 84ft, and the angle of elevation is 58 degrees.
tan58=84/x
find x by dividing 84 by tan58, and you get 52.5ft.
b) do the same thing, except 131 is in the base of the right triangle shape. That being said, do tan17=x/131.
multiply 131 by tan17, and you get x=40.1 feet.
c) This question wants you to find the length of the slide, (basically the hypotenuse).
given the angle to be 46, do sin46=9/x
since sin is opp/hyp
9/sin46= 12.5ft
d) Find the angle of elevation by using inverse tan given the base to be 5, and the height to be 16ft.
tan^-1=(16/5)=theta
x=72.6 hope this helps!
Answer:
Candidates are chosen without replacement, thus trials are dependent, meaning that Y has a hypergeometric distribution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Difference between hypergeometric and binomial distributions:
In the hypergeometric distribution, trials are dependent of other trials, while in the binomial distribution, they are independent. This can be examplified that in the hypergeometric distribution, the candidates are chosen from a set without replacement, while in the binomial distribution they are chosen with replacement.
In this question:
Candidates are chosen without replacement, thus trials are dependent, meaning that Y has a hypergeometric distribution.
Answer: x = 37.8
Step-by-step explanation: We start with triangle ABC with two sides given as 15 and 18. We shall make angle C the reference angle and thereby calculate the third side, line BC.
Since we have the opposite side as 15, and the adjacent side (which lies between the reference angle and the right angle) as 18, we can use the tangent of the angle C
Tan C = Opp/Adj
Tan C = 15/18
Tan C = 0.8333
From our table of values/use of the calculator
Tan C = 39.8
Angle C in triangle ACB = Angle C in triangle ECD (Opposite angles are equal).
That takes us to triangle ECD, since the reference angle is known (39.8) and the opposite side is also given (31.5), we can now calculate the adjacent which is side x.
Tan C = Opp/Adj
Tan 39.8 = 31.5/x
when you cross multiply, x moves to the left hand side, while Tan 39.8 moves to the right hand side
x = 31.5/Tan 39.8
x = 31.5/0.8333
<u>x = 37.8</u>
