The plane will make an angle 3.26^{\circ} with the runway.

Explanation:

Given that the plane is flying at an altitude of 11 miles and is 193 miles from the runway, as measured from the ground.

We need to determine the angle that the plane will make with the runway.

From the given measurements, we can see that it is a right angled triangle. Hence, let us use the tangent formula to determine the angle.

The formula for the tangent is given by

tan \ \theta=\frac{opp}{adj}

Where opp=11 and adj=193

Substituting these values in the above equation, we get,

tan \ \theta=\frac{11}{193}

Dividing, we get,

tan \ \theta=0.057

Taking tan^{-1} on both sides of the equation, we get,

\theta= tan^{-1}(0.057)

Simplifying, we have,

\theta= 3.26^{\circ}

Hence, the angle that the plane will make with the runway is 3.26^{\circ}

A warehouse distributor of carpet keeps 6,000 yards of deluxe shag carpet in stock during a month. The average demand for carpet
Bond [772]

Answer:

The probability that a customer’s order will not be met during a month is 1.67.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A warehouse distributor of carpet keeps 6,000 yards of deluxe shag carpet in stock during a month. The average demand for carpet from the stores that purchase from the distributor is 4,500 yards per month, with a standard deviation of 900 yards.

To find : What is the probability that a customer’s order will not be met during a month?

Solution :

Average Mean \mu=4500

Sample Mean x=6000

Standard deviation \sigma=900

The formula is given by,

Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Substitute the value in the formula,

Z=\frac{6000-4500}{900}

Z=\frac{1500}{900}

Z=1.67

The probability that a customer’s order will not be met during a month is 1.67.

EastWind [94]

Answer:

14.9 min

Step-by-step explanation:

r=rate

r25=5*7

r25=35

r=35/25

r=1.4

substitution

r160=t*15

t=time

r=1.4

1.4*160=t*15

224=t*15/15

224/15=t
