We need an angle measure we have to use an inverse trig ratio, sin^-1, cos^-1, or tan^-1.
Setting up the right triangle we have the opposite and adjacent so we use tan.
tan angle = 28/32
tan^-1 (28/32) = 41 degrees

Height = 28m
shadow = 32

Angle = tan^-1 (28/32) = 41.18 degree

Goshia [24]

The probability that this bag will be warm enough on a randomly

selected May night at the park is 0.8106 ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

You are planning a May camping trip to Denali National Park in Alaska

and want to make sure your sleeping bag is warm enough.

The average low temperature in the park for May follows a normal

distribution

The given is:

1. The mean is 32°F

2. The standard deviation is 8°F

3. One sleeping bag you are considering advertises that it is good for

   temperatures down to 25°F (x ≥ 25)

At first let us find the z-score

∵ z = (x - μ)/σ, where x is the score, μ is the mean, σ is standard deviation

∵ μ = 32°F , σ = 8°F , x = 25°F

- Substitute these values in the rule

∴ z = \frac{25-32}{8}=-0.875

Now let us find the corresponding area of z-score in the normal

distribution table

∵ The corresponding area of z = -0.875 is 0.18943

∵ For P(x ≥ 25) the area to the right is needed

∵ P(x ≥ 25) = 1 - 0.18943 = 0.8106

∴ P(x ≥ 25) = 0.8106

The probability that this bag will be warm enough on a randomly

selected May night at the park is 0.8106

Assign two variables for each problem, and write the equations. Do not solve.
GalinKa [24]
Call the amount of pineapple "P', and the amount of gingerale "G".

We know that a mix of pineapple and gingerale makes 200 cups. So: 
P+G=200

We also know that double the pineapple (i.e. 2P) and triple the gingerale (i.e. 3G) makes 420 cups. So:
2P+3G=420

We can now solve by substitution:
2P+3(200-P)=420
2P+600-3P=420
-P=-180
P=180

180+G=200
G=20

For 420 cups we need 2P=360 cups of pineapple and 3G=60 cups of gingerale]

What is 70% as a fraction in simplest form
andriy [413]
70% is the same as 70/100  then we simplify by taking off one zero of each number 7/10 and we can't divide it any more so the answer is 7/10
