We know that

tan 32°=opposite side/adjacent side
[adjacent side]=[opposite side]/tan 32°

in this problem

opposite side-----> will be the altitude of the flock of birds minus your eye level above the ground
(12000-6)-----> 11994 ft

adjacent side------->will be the horizontal distance between you and the birds
32°------> <span>an angle of elevation
</span>
[adjacent side]=[11994]/tan 32°-------> 19194.41 ft

the answer is
<span>The horizontal distance from the birds is 19194.41 ft</span>

Y = 2f(g(x))
IrinaK [193]
Yes you used the chain rule properly to follow the correct steps to get the right answer. Great job.

If you wanted, you can come up with examples for f(x) and g(x) to help confirm the answer. A quick way to do this is to use something like GeoGebra to help graph the two expressions and you'll notice that the curves match up perfectly (indicating equivalent expressions). Note: GeoGebra can handle derivatives through the Derivative[] comand or you can type the function in the input bar with a tickmark after it to tell GeoGebra to derive the function.

A loaf of bread costs $1.40 and the markup is 30% of the selling price. Find the selling price.
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The selling price after the markup is $1.82

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.40 * .30 =

Multiply $1.40 times .30 (which is same as 30%)

$1.40 * .30 = $0.42

Add $1.40 and $0.42

= $1.82

Hope this helps.

An online instructor sends updates to students via text. The probability model describes the number of text messages the instruc
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The expectation the instructor to send each day

E(X) = 3.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data   x   :    0      1           2        3         4        5

P(X=x)               :   0.05 0.05    0.1    0.1         0.4     0.3

The given data satisfy the two conditions

I) Given all probabilities are p₁(x) ≥0

ii) sum of all probabilities is equal to one

0.05 + 0.05 + 0.1  +  0.1 + 0.4 +0.3 =1

Therefore given data is discrete probability distribution

<u>Expectation</u> :-

suppose a random variable X assumes the values x_{1}, x_{2},..x_{n} with respective probabilities p_{1}, p_{2},..p_{n} , then the Expectation or Expected value of X  , denoted by E(X) = ∑pi xi

E(X) = 0X0.05+1X 0.05 +2X 0.1  +3X 0.1 +4X0.4 +5X 0.3

on simplification, we get

E(X) = 3.65
