Answer:

A. x = 58°

B. x = 10m

C. a = 44°

All approximated to nearest whole number.

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles given are right angled triangles. Therefore, we would apply the trigonometry functions to solve for each missing side and angle.

Recall: SOHCAHTOA

a. Adjacent = 4.8cm,

Hypotenuse = 9cm

Angle to find =x°

Thus, we would apply the following formula:

Cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Cos θ = 4.8/9 = 0.5333

θ = Cos-¹(0.5333) = 57.77

x ≈ 58° (to nearest whole number)

b. Opposite side = x

Hypothenuse = 40 m

Included angle = 14°

We would use:

Sine θ = opposite/hypothenuse

Sin (14) = x/40

Multiply both sides by 40

40*sin(14) = x

40*0.2419 = x

x = 9.676 = 10 m (to nearest whole number)

c. Opposite = 87mm

Adjacent = 91mm

θ = a°

We would use:

Tan θ = opposite/adjacent

Tan θ = 87/91

Tan θ = 0.9560

θ = tan-¹(0.9560)

θ = a = 43.71

a ≈ 44° (to nearest whole number)

Please help! An archway will be constructed over a walkway. A piece of wood will need to be curved to match a parabola. Explain

Gwar [14]

draw a perpendicular line from the directrix passing through the focus, this will be the line of symmetry. The vertex(h, k) will be located on the line half way between the focus and directrix. The distance from the focus to the vertex is called the focal length, call it a. The then equation is (x - h)^2 = 4a(y - k) the equation can be manipulated to y = 1/4a(x - h)^2 + k hope it helps

Quit smoking: In a survey of 444 HIV-positive smokers, 202 reported that they had used a nicotine patch to try to quit smoking.

Flauer [41]

Answer:

The p-value of the test is of 0.0287 < 0.05(standard significance level), which means that it can be concluded that less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at least half, that is:

$H_0: p \geq 0.5$

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is below 0.5, that is:

$H_1: p < 0.5$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 0.5, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5*(1-0.5)} = 0.5$

In a survey of 444 HIV-positive smokers, 202 reported that they had used a nicotine patch to try to quit smoking.

This means that $n = 444, X = \frac{202}{444} = 0.455$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{0.455 - 0.5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{444}}}$

$z = -1.9$

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion below 0.455, which is the p-value of z = -1.9.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.9 has a p-value of 0.0287.

The p-value is of 0.0287 < 0.05(standard significance level), which means that it can be concluded that less than half of HIV-positive smokers have used a nicotine patch.
