Answer:

The answer to your question is 39 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Force = 60 lb

angle = 40°

vertical component = ?

Process

To answer this question, we must imagine a right triangle where the force gave is the hypotenuse, and the vertical component will be the opposite side to the 40° angle.

1.- Look for a trigonometric function that relates the opposite side and the hypotenuse

          sin Ф = Opposite side / hypotenuse

- Solve for Opposite side

          Opposite side = hypotenuse x sin Ф

- Substitution

          Opposite side = 60 x sin 40

- Simplification

          Opposite side = 60 x 0.64

- Result

          Opposite side = 38.56 ≈ 39 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

n ⋅ n ⋅ p ⋅ p ⋅ r ⋅ r ⋅ r

Write using exponents

There are 2 n terms

n²⋅ p ⋅ p ⋅ r ⋅ r ⋅ r

There are 2 p terms

n² p²⋅ r ⋅ r ⋅ r

There are 3 r terms

** DISCLAMIER** am not completely sure. Please do not use my answer unless you are very desperate.

since O,R correspond with A,N I think you half F on each side and add it to 11.2 so
10 divided by 2 = 5
7 is already half.
5 + 7 is 12
12 + 11.2 = 23.2

IF THIS IS WRONG TRY 17
reason for 17:
10 + 7 = 17
If you look at both lines they look the same length as A, N.

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

(a) H0:μ1=μ2; Ha:μ1≠μ2, which is a two-tailed test.

Step-by-step explanation:

We formulate the

H0: μ1=μ2; null hypothesis that the two means are equal and alternate hypothesis that the two mean are not equal.

Ha:μ1≠μ2 Two tailed test

Test statistic used is

t= x1`-x2` / s√n as the variances are equal and sample size is same

T value for 9 degrees of freedom for two tailed test at α = 0.05 is 2.26

P- value for t test for 9 degrees of freedom is 0.125 from the table.

Hence only a is correct .
