1. Make the surface rougher, like having sandpaper instead of stone.
2. Increase the force of the item being moved.

I need help on finding m

EastWind [94]

Answer:

39°

Step-by-step explanation:

$\angle RUS +\angle SUT = \angle RUT\\\\5x-4+3x+6 = 90\\\\8x+2=90\\\\8x=88\\\\x=11$

and now for SUT

$\angle SUT = 3(11)+6= 33+6 = 39$

The taste test for PTC (phenylthiourea) is a common class demonstration in the study of genetics. It is known that 70% of the Am

AysviL [449]

Answer:

The variance for the number of tasters is 4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are tasters, or they are not. The probability of a person being a taster is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The variance of the binomial distribution is:

$V(X) = np(1-p)$

It is known that 70% of the American people are "tasters" with the rest are "non-tasters". Suppose a genetics class of size 20

This means that $p = 0.7, n = 20$

$V(X) = np(1-p) = 20*0.7*0.3 = 4.2$

The variance for the number of tasters is 4.2

Two airplanes are flying in the air at the same height. Airplane A is flying east at 300mi/h and airplane B is flying north at 2

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

$\frac{dAB}{dt}=340 mil/h$

Step-by-step explanation:

The change of distance over time of the plain A is 300 mi/hour and 200 mi/hour for plane B. O is the point of the airport.

So, the distance from A to O AO = 90 miles and BO = 120 miles.

Now, we have a right triangle here. We can use the Pythagorean theorem, so the distance between the planes will be:

$AB^{2} =AO^{2}+BO^{2}$ (1)

$AB =\sqrt{AO^{2}+BO^{2}}=$

$AB =\sqrt{90^{2}+120^{2}}=150 miles$

If we take the derivative of the equation (1) we could find the change of the distance between planes.

$2AB\frac{dAB}{dt}=2AO\frac{dAO}{dt}+2BO\frac{dBO}{dt}$

$2*150\frac{dAB}{dt}=2*90*300+2*120*200=102000 mil/h$

$\frac{dAB}{dt}=\frac{102000}{150*2}$

Finally,

$\frac{dAB}{dt}=340 mil/h$

I hope it helps you!

What is the formula for the area of a triangle?

SashulF [63]

The formula to find the area of a triangle is :

1/2 base*height

For instance:

base=4 cm

height=5cm

area of traingle=1/2*b*h

 =1/2*4*5

 =10cm^2

Hope it helps...
