Please help me with this algebra/geometry question!

A bank manager is interested in the average length of time that customers are willing to wait in line before they give up and le

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: The average length of time that the 25 customers waited before leaving the bank. e. Statistic

The list of times for the 25 customers who left the bank. f.Data

All of the bank's customers d. Population

The 25 customers that the manager observed leave. c. Sample

The length of time a customer waits before leaving the bank. a. Variable.

The average length of time that all customers will wait before leaving the bank a. Parameter

Step-by-step explanation:

A data is a list of observations.

In statistics, a variable is an attribute that defines a person, place, thing, or thought.

A large group that have similar individuals as per the researcher's point of view is known as population, where its subset is known as sample.

The measure of certain characteristic in population is known as parameter, where for sample it is known as statistic.

For 0 ≤ ϴ < 2π, how many solutions are there to tan(StartFraction theta Over 2 EndFraction) = sin(ϴ)? Note: Do not include va

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

3 solutions:

$\theta={0, \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first of all, we need to figure the angles that cannot be included in our answers out. The only function in the equation that isn't defined for some angles is $tan(\frac{\theta}{2})$ so let's focus on that part of the equation first.

We know that:

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{sin(\frac{\theta}{2})}{cos(\frac{\theta}{2})}$

therefore:

$cos(\frac{\theta}{2})\neq0$

so we need to find the angles that will make the cos function equal to zero. So we get:

$cos(\frac{\theta}{2})=0$

$\frac{\theta}{2}=cos^{-1}(0)$

$\frac{\theta}{2}=\frac{\pi}{2}+\pi n$

or

$\theta=\pi+2\pi n$

we can now start plugging values in for n:

$\theta=\pi+2\pi (0)=\pi$

if we plugged any value greater than 0, we would end up with an angle that is greater than $2\pi$ so, that's the only angle we cannot include in our answer set, so:

$\theta\neq \pi$

having said this, we can now start solving the equation:

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=sin(\theta)$

we can start solving this equation by using the half angle formula, such a formula tells us the following:

$tan(\frac{\theta}{2})=\frac{1-cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}$

so we can substitute it into our equation:

$\frac{1-cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}=sin(\theta)$

we can now multiply both sides of the equation by $sin(\theta)$

so we get:

$1-cos(\theta)=sin^{2}(\theta)$

we can use the pythagorean identity to rewrite $sin^{2}(\theta)$ in terms of cos:

$sin^{2}(\theta)=1-cos^{2}(\theta)$

so we get:

$1-cos(\theta)=1-cos^{2}(\theta)$

we can subtract a 1 from both sides of the equation so we end up with:

$-cos(\theta)=-cos^{2}(\theta)$

and we can now add $cos^{2}(\theta)$

to both sides of the equation so we get:

$cos^{2}(\theta)-cos(\theta)=0$

and we can solve this equation by factoring. We can factor $cos(\theta)$ to get:

$cos(\theta)(cos(\theta)-1)=0$

and we can use the zero product property to solve this, so we get two equations:

Equation 1:

$cos(\theta)=0$

$\theta=cos^{-1}(0)$

$\theta={\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}}$

Equation 2:

$cos(\theta)-1=0$

we add a 1 to both sides of the equation so we get:

$cos(\theta)=1$

$\theta=cos^{-1}(1)$

$\theta=0$

so we end up with three answers to this equation:

$\theta={0, \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}}$

Given: cos α = 4/5, sin β= 4/5, and α and β are both in quadrant 1. find sin (α+β)

mezya [45]

We have the formula (sin x)^2 + (cos x)^2 = 1;
Then, sin α = $\sqrt{1- ( \frac{4}{5}) ^{2} } = \frac{3}{5} ;$
cos β = $\sqrt{1- ( \frac{4}{5}) ^{2} } = \frac{3}{5} ;$
We apply the formula sin ( α + β ) = sin α x cos β + sin β x cos α = (3/5)x(4/5) + (4/5)x(3/5) = 12/25 + 12/25 = 24/25;

Convert the following to scientific notation: 0.000665.

BaLLatris [955]

- - Step 1: Move the decimal point to the right, until you get greater then 1 and less than 10. In this case we moved it till we got 6.65.
- - Step 2: Count how many times you moved the decimal over: In this case, we moved it 4 times.
- - Step 3: All you have to do now is chose which one has 6.65 over -4.
(We are saying negative because when you move it to the right, it becomes negative.)
Final answer: A
