The angle of elevation<span> of an object as seen by an observer is the </span>angle<span> between the horizontal and the line from the object to the observer's eye (the line of sight). since you did give the horizontal distance between amy and the hoop, so let us represent it as x.
so the angle of elevation = tan^-1 ( (8 - 5.9) / x)
angle elevation = tan^-1 ( 2.1 / x )</span>

The touchdown to fumble ratio for Bobby Boucher was 9:2 If Bobby ran for 18 touchdowns,
Vika [28.1K]

Answer: He had 14 more touchdowns than he did fumbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Ok, so we need to see how many times 9 will divide into 18.

18/9=2.

Step 2. So now that we know that 9 goes into 18 two times and we know he has two fumbles for every 9 touchdowns we can multiply 2 by 2 to find out how man fumbles he had.

2*2=4

Step 3. Now to find out how many more touchdowns than fumbles he had we need to subtract his fumbles from his touchdowns.

18-4= 14. So, now we know he had 14 more touchdowns than he did fumbles.

Hope this helps!

Find the expected value of the winnings
Orlov [11]

The expected value of the winnings from the game is $4

<h3>How to determine the expected value?</h3>

The payout probability distribution is given as:

Payout ($) 2 4 6 8 10

Probability 0.5 0.2 0.15 0.1 0.05

The expected value is then calculated as:

E(x) = \sum x * P(x)

This gives

E(x) = 2 * 0.5 + 4 * 0.2 + 6 * 0.15 + 8 * 0.1 + 10 * 0.05

Evaluate the expression

E(x) = 4

Hence, the expected value of the winnings from the game is $4
