Answer:

height of the tower = 2358.3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we can use the tangent relation of the angle of elevation, where the opposite side of the angle is the height of the tower minus six feet and the adjacent side of the angle is the distance from David to the tower. So, we have that:

tangent(78) = (height - 6)/500

4.7046 = (height - 6) / 500

height - 6 = 2352.3

height = 2358.3 feet

What is the inverse of y=2x squared -4
Bumek [7]
y=2x^2-4\ \ \ |+4\\\\2x^2=y+4\ \ \ |:2\\\\x^2=\dfrac{y+4}{2}\\\\x=\sqrt{\dfrac{y+4}{2}}

y^{-1}=\sqrt{\dfrac{x+4}{2}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{x+4}}{\sqrt2}=\dfrac{\sqrt{2(x+4)}}{2}=\dfrac{\sqrt{2x+8}}{2}

a family has five children. the probability of having a girl is 1/2. whats probability of having at leasr 4 girls g'
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Probability of having at least 4 Girls

= 0.6875

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of having at least 4 Girls is 1-probability of having exactly 3 girls

Total number of children= 5 = N

Probability of having a girl p = 0.5

Probability of not having a girl q= 0.5

X= 3

Probability of at least 4 girls is given by

Probability= NCX(p)^x(q)^(N-x)

Probability = 5C3(0.5)^3(0.5)^(5-3)

Probability = 5C3(0.5)^3(0.5)^2

Probability= 5!/3!2!(0.5)^3(0.5)^2

Probability= 10(0.125)(0.25)

Probability= 0.3125

Probability of having at least 4 Girls

= 1- 0.3125

= 0.6875
