Jack and Jill got tired of falling down that hill with a pail of water and decided to try flying a kite instead. Jack is holding

the kite string, and Jill is standing directly under the kite. The kite string forms a 61° angle with the line of sight between Jack and Jill, who are the same height. The two BFFs are standing 12 yards apart. How long is the kite string?

Because Jill is standing directly under the kite the angle between jack Jill and the kite is 90°
so
a=12 yards
A°=61°
B°=90°
b=?
to find b we have a formula:
a devided by the sinus of A equals b devided by the sinus of B

12÷sin(61°)=b÷sin(90°)
12÷0.8=b÷1
15=b

A polar bear swims 390 meters at a constant rate in 150 seconds. what is the speed of the polar bear?
worty [1.4K]
The answer is 2.6 m/s

The speed (v) is distance (d) through time (t).
v = d/t

We know:
d = 390 m
t = 150 s

v = d/t
v = 390 m / 150s
v = = 2.6 m/s

How do you solve 3/5×4 1/6?
Helen [10]
\frac{3}{5} × 4 \frac{1}{6}

First, convert 4\frac{1}{6} to an improper fraction. Use this rule: a \frac{b}{c} = \frac{ac+b}{c} / Your problem should look like: \frac{3}{5} × \frac{4x6+1}{6}
Second, simplify 4 × 6 to 24. / Your problem should look like: \frac{3}{5} × \frac{24+1}{6} 
Third, simplify 24 + 1 to 25. / Your problem should look like: \frac{3}{5} × \frac{25}{6}
Fourth, apply this rule: \frac{a}{b} × \frac{c}{d} = \frac{ac}{bd} / Your problem should look like: \frac{3x25}{5x6}
Fifth, simplify 3 × 25 to 75. / Your problem should look like: \frac{75}{5x6}
Sixth, simplify 5 × 6 to 30. / Your problem should look like: \frac{75}{30}
Seventh, simplify. / Your problem should look like: \frac{5}{2}
Eighth, convert to mixed fraction. / Your problem should look like: 2\frac{1}{2}

Answer: 2 \frac{1}{2}

What is the probability that more than twelve loads occur during a 4-year period? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Given that an article suggests

that a Poisson process can be used to represent the occurrence of

structural loads over time. Suppose the mean time between occurrences of

loads is 0.4 year. a). How many loads can be expected to occur during a 4-year period? b). What is the probability that more than 11 loads occur during a

4-year period? c). How long must a time period be so that the probability of no loads

occurring during that period is at most 0.3?Part A:The number of loads that can be expected to occur during a 4-year period is given by:Part B:The expected value of the number of loads to occur during the 4-year period is 10 loads.This means that the mean is 10.The probability of a poisson distribution is given by where: k = 0, 1, 2, . . ., 11 and λ = 10.The probability that more than 11 loads occur during a

4-year period is given by:1 - [P(k = 0) + P(k = 1) + P(k = 2) + . . . + P(k = 11)]= 1 - [0.000045 + 0.000454 + 0.002270 + 0.007567 + 0.018917 + 0.037833 + 0.063055 + 0.090079 + 0.112599 + 0.125110+ 0.125110 + 0.113736]= 1 - 0.571665 = 0.428335 Therefore, the probability that more than eleven loads occur during a 4-year period is 0.4283Part C:The time period that must be so that the probability of no loads occurring during that period is at most 0.3 is obtained from the equation:Therefore, the time period that must be so that the probability of no loads

occurring during that period is at most 0.3 is given by: 3.3 years
