Draw a right triangle ABC, with m(CAB)=∅.

Let CB=7 units, AC=8 units, so by the Pythagorean theorem:

AB= \sqrt{ AC^{2} - BC^{2} }= \sqrt{ 8^{2} - 7^{2} }=  \sqrt{64-49} = \sqrt{15} (units)

so we have drawn a triangle where sin∅=7/8

in this triangle, cot∅=(adjacent side)/(opposite side)=\frac{ \sqrt{15} }{7}

Answer: <span>square root of fifteen divided by seven</span>

Suppose we have a binomial experiment in which success is defined to be a particular quality or attribute that interests us.
mestny [16]

For a binomial experiment in which success is defined to be a particular quality or attribute that interests us, with n=36 and p as 0.23,  we can approximate p hat by a normal distribution.

Since n=36 , p=0.23 , thus q= 1-p = 1-0.23=0.77

therefore,

n*p= 36*0.23 =8.28>5

n*q = 36*0.77=27.22>5

and therefore, p hat can be approximated by a normal random variable, because n*p>5 and n*q>5.

The question is incomplete, a possible complete question is:

Suppose we have a binomial experiment in which success is defined to be a particular quality or attribute that interests us.

Suppose n = 36 and p = 0.23. Can we approximate p hat by a normal distribution? Why? (Use 2 decimal places.)

n*p = ?

n*q = ?

shtirl [24]

Answer:

Step 3 contains error.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

\dfrac{1}{4}(\dfrac{1}{3}k+9)=6

Step 1.

Cross multiplying,

(\dfrac{1}{3}k+9)=24

Step 2.

Subtract 9 from both sides

\dfrac{1}{3}k+9-9=24-9\\\\\dfrac{1}{3}k=15

Step 3.

Cross multiplying

k=15\times 3\\\\k=45

So, there is an error in step 3. The correct answer should be 45.

There are 12 football teams in a competition. The lions have a probability of 1/12 of winning the competition. How is this true?
MaRussiya [10]
Asuming that all the teams have the same skill levels the game will mostly be chance. The chance of winning will be 1/12 because they are 1 out of 12 teams.
