Answer:

The answer to your question is sin B = $\frac{8}{17}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine is the trigonometric function that relates the opposite side and the hypotenuse.

In the picture, we have the hypotenuse and the adjacent side, so we must calculate the opposite side using the Pythagorean theorem.

b² = c² - a²

b² = 17² - 15²

b² = 289 - 225

b² = 64

b = 8

Now, we can calculate the sine

sin B = $\frac{opposite side}{hypotenuse}$

sin B = $\frac{8}{17}$

) The density of oil in a circular oil slick on the surface of the ocean at a distance of r meters from the center of the slick

Feliz [49]

Answer:

Therefore the mass of the of the oil is 409.59 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider a circular disk. The inner radius of the disk be r and the outer diameter of the disk be (r+Δr).

The area of the disk

=The area of the outer circle - The area of the inner circle

= $\pi (r+\triangle r)^2- \pi r^2$

$=\pi [r^2+2r\triangle r+(\triangle r)^2-r^2]$

$=\pi [2r\triangle r+(\triangle r)^2]$

Since (Δr)² is very small, So it is ignorable.

∴ $A=2\pi r\triangle r$

The density $\delta (r)= \frac{40}{1+r^2}$

We know,

Mass= Area× density

$=(2r \pi \triangle r)(\frac{40}{1+r^2}})$

Total mass $M=\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{80r_i\pi }{1+r^2}\triangle r_i$

Therefore

$\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{80r_i\pi }{1+r^2}\triangle r_i=\int_0^5 \frac{80r\pi }{1+r^2}dr$

$=40\pi[ln(1+r^2)]_0^5$

$=40\pi [ln(1+5^2)-ln(1+0^2)]$

$=40\pi ln(26)$

= 409.59 kg (approx)

Therefore the mass of the of the oil is 409.59 kg.

f) The life of a power transmission tower is exponentially distributed, with mean life 25 years. If three towers, operated indep

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

15.24% probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the binomial distribution and the exponential distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

$f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}$

In which $\mu = \frac{1}{m}$ is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

$P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx$

Which has the following solution:

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}$

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

$P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}$

Probability of a single tower being standing after 35 years:

Single tower, so exponential.

Mean of 25 years, so $m = 25, \mu = \frac{1}{25} = 0.04$

We have to find $P(X > 35)$

$P(X > 35) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-0.04*35} = 0.2466$

What is the probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years?

Now binomial.

Each tower has a 0.2466 probability of being standing after 35 years, so $p = 0.2466$

3 towers, so $n = 3$

We have to find:

$P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.2466)^{2}.(0.7534)^{1} = 0.1374$

$P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.2466)^{3}.(0.7534)^{0} = 0.0150$

$P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.1374 + 0.0150 = 0.1524$

15.24% probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years

Simplify:<br> 2(xy - 7) = [?]<br> x = -1 and y = 3

fiasKO [112]

Answer:2(xy-7)= -20

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in -1 for x and 3 for 3, as the question says that x and y represent those values.

2(xy-7) = ?

2((-1)(3) - 7) = ?

2(-3-7)=?

2(-10)

-20

2(xy - 7) = -20
