Answer:

distance TS ≈ 19 m (nearest meter)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point T is on the horizontal ground and the angle of elevation of the top R of a tower is 63° and the height of the tower is 38 m high. The illustration forms a right angle triangle. The height RS of the tower is the opposite side of the triangle formed. The hypotenuse side of the triangle is the point from the ground T to the top of the tower R. The adjacent side of the triangle is the side TS.

using tangential ratio

tan 63° = opposite/adjacent

tan 63° = 38/adjacent

cross multiply

adjacent tan 63° = 38

divide both sides by tan 63°

adjacent side = 38/tan 63°

adjacent side = 38/1.96261050551

adjacent side = 19.3619670807

distance TS ≈ 19 m (nearest meter)

Find the value of x round to the nearest tenth

Leto [7]

Answer:

58.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula $c=\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}$

solving for x (b)

$b=\sqrt{c^{2}-a^{2}$ = $\sqrt{61^{2}-17^{2}$ ≈58.58327

and 58.58327 rounds to 58.6

How do you solve this? x - 2y = 4

valentina_108 [34]

If you want to solve for x, then
add 2y to both sides
x=2y+4
if want to solve for y
minus x both sides and divide by -2
x-2y=4
-2y=-x+4
y=1/2x-2

The average time an individual reads online national news reports is 49 minutes. Assume the standard deviation is 16 minutes and

Olin [163]

Answer:

0.118 is the probability someone will spend no more than 30 minutes reading online national news reports.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 49 minutes

Standard Deviation, σ = 16 minutes

We are given that the distribution of time an individual reads is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

P(no more than 30 minutes)

$P( x \leq 610) = P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{30 - 49}{16}) = P(z \leq -1.1875)$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(x \leq 30) = 0.118 = 11.8\%$

0.118 is the probability someone will spend no more than 30 minutes reading online national news reports.
