The distance between the helicopter and the first home is 369. 87 m
<h3>How to solve the distance using the angle of depression?</h3>
The distance between the helicopter and the first home can be found using sine law,
Hence,
180 - 72 - 49 = 59 degrees.
Therefore,
420 / sin 59 = A / sin 49°
where
- A = distance form the first home to the helicopter.
cross multiply
420 sin 49 = A sin 59°
A = 420 sin 49 / sin 59
A = 316.978023694 / 0.8571673007
A = 369.869339199
A = 369. 87 m
Therefore, the distance between the helicopter and the first home is 369. 87 m

Answer by JKismyhusbandbae: x < - 4 or x > 16
(Work is in picture)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a) 33.33%)
b) 135 minutes
c) 8.66 min
d) 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
a) the probability for a uniform distribution is
P(b<X<a) = (a-b)/(c-d) , where c and d are the maximum and minimum values
therefore the probability that the flight is more than 140 minutes ( and less than 150 since it is the maximum value)
P(140<X<150) = (a-b)/(c-d) = (150-140)/(150-120) = 10/30 = 1/3 (33.33%)
b) the mean (expected value) for a uniform probability distribution is
E(X) = (c+d)/2 = (120+150)/2 = 135 minutes
c) the standard deviation for a uniform probability distribution is
σ²(X)= (c-d)²/12 = (150-120)²/12 = 75 min²
σ = √75 min² = 8.66 min
b) following the same procedure as in a)
P(120<X<135) = (a-b)/(c-d) = (135-120)/(150-120) = 15/30 = 1/2 (50%)
