Answer:

173.15 ft.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

Let L be the length of kite.  

We have been given that a kite is stuck in  36-ft tree. The angle of elevation from the kite and the ground is 12.

We can see from our attachment that kite and tree form a right triangle. height of tree is opposite of angle of elevation and length of kite is hypotenuse.

Since we know that Sine relates the opposite and hypotenuse of a right triangle, so we will use sine to find the length of kite.

sin(12)=\frac{36}{L}    

L=\frac{36}{sin(12)}

L=\frac{36}{0.207911690818}  

L=173.1504364105882792\approx 173.15

Therefore, the length of kite is 173.15 ft.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

(-4, -1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

to calculate the midpoints bt of the line use the ormula:

( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )

Where (x1, x2) is one coordinate point and (y1, y2) is anither coordinate point. Any two points will work, but I chose A (-5,-4) and B (-3, 3).

( \frac{ - 5 + ( - 3)}{2}  \frac{ - 4 + 3}{2} )

(-4, -1/2)

Suppose the number of insect fragments in a chocolate bar follows a Poisson process with the expected number of fragments in a 2
leonid [27]

Answer:

a)The expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar is 2.55

b)0.6004

c)19.607

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denotes the number of fragments in 200 gm chocolate bar with expected number of fragments 10.2

X ~ Poisson(A) where \lambda = \frac{10.2}{200} = 0.051

a)We are supposed to find the expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar

\frac{1}{4} \times 200 = 50

50 grams of bar contains expected fragments = \lambda x = 0.051 \times 50=2.55

So, the expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar is 2.55

b) Now we are supposed to find the probability that you have to eat more than 10 grams of chocolate bar before ending your first fragment

Let X denotes the number of grams to be eaten before another fragment is detected.

P(X>10)= e^{-\lambda \times x}= e^{-0.051 \times 10}= e^{-0.51}=0.6004

c)The expected number of grams to be eaten before encountering the first fragments :

E(X)=\frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{1}{0.051}=19.607 grams
