Answer: 0.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A recent Harris Poll survey of 1010 U.S. adults selected at random showed that 627 consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige.

i.e. The sample size of U.S. adults : n= 1010

The number of U.S. adults consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige : x= 627

Now , the probability that a U.S adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighters has very great prestige will be :

\hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}\\\\=\dfrac{627}{1010}=0.620792079208\approx0.62  [ To the nearest hundredth]

Hence, the estimated probability that a U.S adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighters has very great prestige = 0.62

The water level in a tank can be modeled by the function h(t)=8cos(pi t /7)+11.5, where t is the number of
denis23 [38]

Answer:

NO amount of hour passed between two consecutive times when the water in the tank is at its maximum height

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the water tank level modelled by the function h(t)=8cos(pi t /7)+11.5. At maximum height, the velocity of the water tank is zero

Velocity is the change in distance with respect to time.

V = {d(h(t)}/dt = -8π/7sin(πt/7)

At maximum height, -8π/7sin(πt/7) = 0

-Sin(πt/7) = 0

sin(πt/7) = 0

Taking the arcsin of both sides

arcsin(sin(πt/7)) = arcsin0

πt/7 = 0

t = 0

This shows that NO hour passed between two consecutive times when the water in the tank is at its maximum height

What does supplementary mean and how do you know if angles are supplementary
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Supplementary angles are those angles that sum up to 180 degrees. For example, angle 130° and angle 50° are supplementary angles because sum of 130° and 50° is equal to 180°.
