In this problem, you apply principles in trigonometry. Since it is not mentioned, you will not assume that the triangle is a special triangle such as the right triangle. Hence, you cannot use Pythagorean formulas. The only equations you can use is the Law of Sines and Law of Cosines.

For finding side a, you can answer this easily by the Law of Cosines. The equation is

a2=b2 +c2 -2bccosA
a2 = 11^2 + 8^2 -2(11)(8)(cos54)
a2 = 81.55
a = √81.55
a = 9 

Then, we use the Law of Sines to find angles B and C. The formula would be

a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC
9/sin54° =  11/sinB
B = 80.4°

9/sin54° = 8/sinC
C = 45.6°

The answer would be: a ≈ 9, C ≈ 45.6, B ≈ 80.4

Leto [7]

Answer:

190.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{2 y - 3 x - 8 = 3 y + 4 x - 1 | (AB=DE)

4 y + 10 x + 3 = -2 y - 17 x + 9 | (BC=EF)

x = -16/5, y = 77/5

DF=AC=-27x+5y+27=190.4

There you go, have a great day

An automobile insurance company issues a one-year policy with a deductible of 500. The probability is 0.8 that the insured autom
Effectus [21]

Answer:

y₀.₉₅ = 3659

Step-by-step explanation:

P( no accident ) = 0.8

P( one accident ) = 0

deductible = 500

mean = 3000

<u>Determine the 95th percentile of the insurance company payout </u>

Assuming : y =company payout , x =amount of loss incurred due to accident

Then :

P( x < 500 ) = 0.2 ( 1 - e^-500/3000)

                   = 0.2 ( 1 - e^-1/6 )

95th percentile =

= P( y < y₀.₉₅  ) 0.95

  P( y = 0 ) = 0.8 + 0.2 ( 1 - e^-1/6 ) = 0.8307

attached below is the remainder of the solution
