Answer:

<u>The height of the tree is √65 or 8.06 feet</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find out the height of the tree, this way:

Hypotenuse = length of the ladder = 9 feet

Leg 1 = Distance from the base of the tree to bottom of the ladder = 4 feet

Leg 2 = Height of the tree

Now, replacing with the real values we have:

Leg 2 ² = Hypotenuse² - Leg 1²

Leg 2² = 9² - 4²

Leg 2² = 81 - 16

Leg 2² = 65

√Leg 2² = √65

Leg 2 = √65 or 8.06 feet

<u>The height of the tree is √65 or 8.06 feet</u>

Answer:

3.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Payout ($) (x) : 0 2 4 8 10

Probability p(x) : 0.35 0.2 0.1 0.2 0.15

The expected winning ; E(X) = Σ(x * p(x))

Σ(x * p(x)) = (0*0.35)+(2*0.2)+(4*0.1)+(8*0.2)+(10*0.15)

= 0 + 0.4 + 0.4 + 1.6 + 1.5

= 3.9

how do you have a reflection in the x axis, if the shape is already partially in the third and second quadrent of the graph
IgorLugansk [536]

Its a reflection over an x-axis, whats "positive" goes "negative" and whats "negative" goes "positive" with respect to y.

If a shape S is a subset (made of P_2\cup P_3 of quadrants Q_2,Q_3 then the part P_2 that lies in the second quadrant gets mapped to Q_3 and part P_3 that lies in third quadrant gets mapped to Q_2

Hope this helps.
