Draw a right triangle to represent the problem.
The vertical height of the triangle is 9 ft, and it represents the tree.
The horizontal length, at the bottom of the tree is ground level and has a length of 13 ft.

Let x =  angle of elevation.

By definition,
tan x = 9/13 = 0.6923
x = arctan(0.6923) = 34.7 deg. = 35 deg (approx)

Answer: 35°

Factor completely 8x2 − 4x − 84. 4(2x − 3)(x 7) 4(2x 3)(x − 7) 4(x − 3)(2x 7) 4(x 3)(2x − 7).
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The factor of the given equation  8x^{2} -4x-84 will be  4(x+3)(2x-7)

<h3>What will be the factor of the given equation?</h3>

Given equation is 8x^{2} -4x-84

Now taking 2 commons from the equation

4(2x^{2} -x-21)

now splitting the equation we get

4(2x^{2} +6x-7x-21)

4(2x(x+3)-7(x+3))

4(x+3)(2x-7)

Thus the factor of the given equation  8x^{2} -4x-84 will be  

4(x+3)(2x-7)

The times a fire department takes to arrive at the scene of an emergency are normally distributed with a mean of 6 minutes and a
Kitty [74]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable representing the times a fire department takes to arrive at the scene of an emergency. Since the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 6 minutes

σ = 1 minute

the probability that fire department arrives at the scene in case of an emergency between 4 minutes and 8 minutes is expressed as

P(4 ≤ x ≤ 8)

For x = 4,

z = (4 - 6)/1 = - 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.023

For x = 8

z = (8 - 6)/1 = 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.98

Therefore,

P(4 ≤ x ≤ 8) = 0.98 - 0.23 = 0.75

The percent of emergencies that the fire department arrive at the scene in between 4 minutes and 8 minutes is

0.75 × 100 = 75%
