A contractor is required by a county planning department to submit one, two, three, four, or five forms (depending on the nature

of the project) in applying for a building permit. Let Y=the number of forms required of the next applicant. The probability that y forms are required is know to be proportional to y, that is, p(y)=ky for y=1,...,5.
(a) What is the value of k?
(b) What is the probability that at most three forms are required?
(c) What is the probabilty that between two and four forms (inclusive) are required?
(d) Could p(y)=y^2/50 for y=1,...,5 be the pmf of Y?

Find the standard form of the complex number 6(cos(30degree) +i sin (30 degree))
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

= 3√3 + 3i

Step-by-step explanation:

Cos 30° = √3/2

Sin 30°  = 1/2

Therefore;

z = 6 (cos 30° + i6 sin 30°)

  = 6 (√3/2) + i 6 (1/2)

   = 3√3 + 3i

Hoochie [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. I guess we assumed the two lines across the transversal are parallel

step 2. 3x + 1 = 85 (definition of alternate exterior angles)

step 3. 3x = 84 (subtract 1 from each side)

step 4. x = 28. (divide both sides by 3)
