Find the indicated side length.

Mathematics

Answer: KL = 5.3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Set up the proportion, cross multiply, and solve for the missing side:

\frac{JL}{GL} = \frac{KL}{HL}

\frac{4}{10} = \frac{KL}{8 + KL}

 4(8 + KL) = 10(KL)

32 + 4KL = 10KL

32           = 6KL

\frac{32}{6}=KL

 KL = 16/3 = 5.3

Bearings Problem Solving Question:
Lynna [10]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) 123.4°

  b) 3.3 km

Step-by-step explanation:

In (N, E) coordinates, Boat 1 is located relative to the lighthouse at ...

  2(cos(60°), sin(60°)) = (1.0, 1.732) . . . . . km

Boat 2 is located at ...

  3(cost(340°), sin(340°)) = (2.819, -1.026) . . . . . km

So, relative to Boat 2, Boat 1 is located at ...

  (1, 1.732) -(2.819, -1.026) = (-1.819, 2.758) . . . . . km

This is at a bearing of ...

  arctan(2.758/-1.819) = 123.4°

and a distance of ...

  √(1.819² +2.758²) ≈ 3.304 . . . . . km

a) Boat 2 would need to travel on a bearing of 123.4°.

b) Boat 2 would need to travel 3.3 km.

<em>Additional comment</em>

We use (North, East) coordinates so we don't have to do the mental gyrations necessary to translate to and from (E, N) coordinates. The latter would correctly orient a map relative to the X-Y Cartesian plane. The former are equivalent to flipping the map over and looking at it from the back side. This is a "rigid transformation", so angles and distances remain unchanged.

In a capture-recapture study, 97 grizzly bears were tagged and released back into the wild. A month later, 200 bears were captur
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

539

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total population of  grizzly bears=x

In the first capture, 97 were tagged.

Therefore, ratio of the total population to the tagged=x:97

A month later, when 200 bears were captured, 36 were tagged.

Ratio of the sample to the tagged=200:36

Since a sample is representative of the population, the ratios are the same. We therefore have:

x:97=200:36

\dfrac{x}{97} =\dfrac{200}{36}\\ $Cross multiply\\36x=200 X 97\\x=200 X 97 \div 36\\x=538.9 \approx 539

There are about 539 grizzly bears in the population

What is the formula for the discriminant?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

In the case of a quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, the discriminant is b2 − 4ac; for a cubic equation x3 + ax2 + bx + c = 0, the discriminant is a2b2 + 18abc − 4b3 − 4a3c − 27c2.
