Answer:
4 stations
Step-by-step explanation:
If we need to be at least 98% certain that an enemy plane flying over will be detected by at least one station, we must ensure that there is at most a 2% chance that no radar stations detect the plane.
The probability that a single radar station does not detect the plane is 0.35.
For n radar stations:
Rounding up to the next whole station, at least 4 stations are needed.
Answer:
(1.5, 2.5) is the best approximate solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the graph, at the point of intersection of these two lines, x is closest to 1.5 and y is simultaneously closest to 2.5.
(1.5, 2.5) is the best approximate solution.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The recursive form is a(n + 1) = a(n) + 2, with a(1) = 8.
The next term is a(6) = a(5) + 2, which heere is a(6) = 16 + 2 = 18
Here you'll need to do some online research, using "area of a cone" as your search term. There is a formula! But it's complicated.
Once you've found this formula online, substitute 17 feet for r. The height of the cone has to be calculated from the slant height (these are not the same):
(slant height)^2 = (12 feet)^2 = r^2 + h^2, where h is the actual height of the cone.
The area of the base is pi*r^2, or pi*17^2 square feet.
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
They both are perpendicular lines. Which means that their slopes are opposite reciprocals.
