Putting a ladder up against a straight wall. The sides of the triangle are:
1: the ladder
2: the walls
3: the ground from the wall to the ladder
Answer:
32 +x+x=180(Sum of angles of a triangle)
32+2x=180
2x=180-32
2x=148
x=148/2
Therefore,X=74
Answer:
The probability of 1 error in a period of 0ne - half minute is 0.1494
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for poisson distribution:
If there is an average of 1 error in 10 seconds
In one-half minutes (i.e. 30 seconds), there will be an average of 30/10 errors = 3 errors
1! = 1
P(X = 1) = 3 * 0.0498
P(X = 1) = 0.01494
The difference of 7 and 7/8 and 3 1/4 can be restated as the difference between 63/8 and 13/4. This is just a change from mixed numbers to improper fractions.
We must now get a common denominator (the bottom part of a fraction). To get 8, we must multiply by 2 to the denominator of 13/4. Since we want this number to stay in the same value, we have to multiply the numerator by 2 as well (top part of the fraction). Therefore, we are getting the difference of 63/8 and 26/8. Doing this, we get (63-26)/8, so the answer is 37/8 = 4 5/8
