The height of the fence is irrelevant. The bottom of the ladder is 3+8 = 11 feet from the building. The window is 14ft above the ground:
sqrt(14^2+11^2) = length of your ladder.
Givens
y = 2
x = 1
z(the hypotenuse) = √(2^2 + 1^2) = √5
Cos(u) = x value / hypotenuse = 1/√5
Sin(u) = y value / hypotenuse = 2/√5
Solve for sin2u
Sin(2u) = 2*sin(u)*cos(u)
Sin(2u) = 2(
) = 4/5
Solve for cos(2u)
cos(2u) = - sqrt(1 - sin^2(2u))
Cos(2u) = - sqrt(1 - (4/5)^2 )
Cos(2u) = -sqrt(1 - 16/25)
cos(2u) = -sqrt(9/25)
cos(2u) = -3/5
Solve for Tan(2u)
tan(2u) = sin(2u) / cos(2u) = 4/5// - 3/5 = - 0.8/0.6 = - 1.3333 = - 4/3
Notes
One: Notice that you would normally rationalize the denominator, but you don't have to in this case. The formulas are such that they perform the rationalizations themselves.
Two: Notice the sign on the cos(2u). The sin is plus even though the angle (2u) is in the second quadrant. The cos is different. It is about 126 degrees which would make it a negative root (9/25)
Three: If you are uncomfortable with the tan, you could do fractions.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is given thus:
Suppose that computer literacy among people ages 40 and older is being studied and that the accompanying tables describes the probability distribution for four randomly selected people, where x is the number that are computer literate. Is it unusual to find four computer literates among four randomly selected people?
x P(x)
0 0.16
1 0.25
2 0.36
3 0.15
4 0.08
ANSWER:
The odds that this will occur according to the chart are 0.08, or 8%, so although this is unlikely, it's not terribly unusual.
⇒ NO
So from the following we can say it is not unusual to find four (4) computer literates among four randomly selected people.
ok, so P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(0) = 0.16+0.25+0.36+0.15+0.08 = 1
Whereas the chance of finding four (4) out of four (4) computer iteration is low when compared to other factors.
cheers i hope this helped !!
To start, give each fraction a common denominator by multiplying the 7/10 by two to get 14/20, an equivalent but not simplified fraction. now compare 14/20 and 11/20. 14/20 is greater than 11/20, so 7/10 > 11/20.
Answer: the answer is D
Step-by-step explanation: You need to find the average per pound so 3.60/6 = 0.60 per pound for the 1st one 0.25 x 2 = 0.50 per pound for the 2nd one 3.00/4 = 0.75 per pound for the 3rd one and 0.49 per pound for the 4th one
