A diagonal of a parallelogram is 20 inches long and makes angles of 17° and 49° with the sides. How long is the longest side?

1 answer:

3 0

Angles of the parallelogram which is given in the problem are:α = 49° + 17 °= 66°

β = 180° - 66° = 114°

x - length of the longest side of the parallelogram;

Use the Sine Law:x / sin 49° = 20/ sin 17°

x / 0.7547 = 20 / 0.2924

0.2924 x = 15.094

x = 15.094 : .2924

x = 51.62 is the longest side of the parallelogram.

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) add 2 to both sides to eliminate -2.

5x = -10

2) divide both sides by 5.

x = -2

A and B are independent events. If P(A) = 0.50 and P(A and B) = 0.20, find P(B).

rewona [7]

The independent events are illustrations of probability, and the value of P(B) is 0.40

<h3>How to determine the value of P(B)?</h3>

The given parameters are:

P(A) = 0.50

P(A and B) = 0.20

Two events A and B are independent, if

P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)

So, we have:

0.50 * P(B) = 0.20

Divide both sides by 0.50

P(B) = 0.40

Hence, the value of P(B) is 0.40

[Q71 Suppose that the height, in inches, of a 25-year-old man is a normal random variable with parameters g = 71 inch and 02 = 6

viktelen [127]

Answer: (a) Percentage of 25 year old men that are above 6 feet 2 inches is 11.5%.

(b) Percentage of 25 year old men in the 6 footer club that are above 6 feet 5 inches are 2.4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Height (in inches) of a 25 year old man is a normal random variable with mean $g=71$ and variance $o^{2} =6.25$ .

To find: (a) What percentage of 25 year old men are 6 feet, 2 inches tall

(b) What percentage of 25 year old men in the 6 footer club are over 6 feet. 5 inches.

Now,

(a) To calculate the percentage of men, we have to calculate the probability

P[Height of a 25 year old man is over 6 feet 2 inches]= P[X> $74in$ ]

P[X>74] = P[ $\frac{X-g}{o}$ > $\frac{74-71}{2.5}$ ]

= P[Z > 1.2]

= 1 - P[Z ≤ 1.2]

= 1 - Ф (1.2)

= 1 - 0.8849

= 0.1151

Thus, percentage of 25 year old men that are above 6 feet 2 inches is 11.5%.

(b) P[Height of 25 year old man is above 6 feet 5 inches gives that he is above 6 feet] = P[X, $6ft$ $5in$ - X, $6ft$ ]

P[X > $6ft$ $5in$ I X > $6ft$ ] = P[X > 77 I X > 72]

= $\frac{P[X > 77]}{P[ X > 72]}$

= $\frac{P[\frac{X - g}{o}>\frac{77-71}{2.5}] }{P[\frac{X-g}{o} >\frac{72-71}{2.5}] }$

= $\frac{P[Z >2.4]}{P[Z>0.4]}$

= $\frac{1-P[Z\leq2.4] }{1-P[Z\leq0.4] }$

= $\frac{1-0.9918}{1-0.6554}$

= $\frac{0.0082}{0.3446}$

= 0.024

Thus, Percentage of 25 year old men in the 6 footer club that are above 6 feet 5 inches are 2.4%.
