Answer:

speed of light movement when boat is 1 mile from light house is 0.029  miles/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

distance of boat from light house is 2 miles

rate of turning of light is 100 degree per minute

w = 100 degree/min

w = 100 \times \frac{\pi}{180} rad/min

w = 1.745 rad/min

w = 0.0290 rad/sec

speed of movement of light v = w\times r

v = 0.029 \times 1 = 0.029 mile/sec

thus speed of light movement when boat is 1 mile from light house is 0.029  miles/sec

Sin 3pi divided by 4
KATRIN_1 [288]
Sin 3pi/4 is angle 135 degrees or 45 degrees below 180 degrees. Hence it's opposite side is 1 and adjacent is 1, implying the hypothenus is sqrt(2). Hence

Sin 3pi/4 = 1/sqrt(2). Now multiply by sqrt(2)/sqrt(2) to get:

[1/sqrt(2).] * [sqrt(2)/sqrt(2)] = sqrt2)/2

MatroZZZ [7]
P(x > 35) = 1 - P(x < 35) = 1 - P[z < (35 - 29.60)/10.50] = 1 - P(z < 0.5143) = 1 - 0.6965 = 0.3035

Therefore, answer is 0.30 to the hundredths place.
