In-s [12.5K]

The distance of the flag pole from point Y is 0.8 km and it is placed at an bearing of N40°E

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Sine rule shows the relationship between the sides and angles of a triangle.

The triangle formed has angles A = 10°, B = 50°, C = 120°, c = 4 km, a = distance from point y.

Hence:

a / sinA = c / sinC

a / sin(10) = 4 / sin(120)

a = 0.8 km

The distance of the flag pole from point Y is 0.8 km and it is placed at an bearing of N40°E

point P is located at (-2, 7), and point R is located at (1, 0). find the y value for the point Q that is located 2/3 the distan

natulia [17]

Answer: 7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

R-P= (3,-7). the displacement vector.

P+x(R-P) moves to x times distance between

P+(R-P) = R moves to 100% of the distance.

Q = P+2/3(R-P)

= (-2,7)+2/3(3,-7)

= (-2,7)+(2,-14/3)

= (0,7-14/3)

= (0,7/3)

= (0,2.3333...)

(a) A parachutist lands at a point on the line between the points A and B, and the target is an operation at A. The operation fa

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

a) $\frac{B-\frac{A+5B}{6}}{B-A}= \frac{6B -A-5B}{6(B-A)}=\frac{B-A}{6(B-A)}=\frac{1}{6}$

b) $P(X>1) = 1-P(X\leq 1)=1-\int_{0}^1 \frac{1^{2} x^{2-1} e^{- x}}{\gamma(2)}=0.736$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

We assume that the parachutist lands at random point in the interval (x=A,y=B) we have a continuous random variable X. And the distribution of X would be uniform $Y\sim Unif(A,B)$ . And the density function would be given by:

$f(x) =\frac{1}{B-A} , A$

And 0 for other case.

The operation fails, if parachutist's distance to A is more than five times as much as her distance to B.

So the point P in the interval (A,B) at which the distance to A is exactly 5 times the distance to B is given by:

$P= A + \frac{5}{6} (B-A)= \frac{6A +5B -5A}{6}=\frac{A+5B}{6}$

And we can find the probability desired like this:

$P(d(P,A) \geq 5 d(P,B))= P(\frac{A+5B}{6} < X< B)$

And from the cumulative distribution function of X ficen by $F(X)\frac{X-A}{B-A}$ we got:

$\frac{B-\frac{A+5B}{6}}{B-A}= \frac{6B -A-5B}{6(B-A)}=\frac{B-A}{6(B-A)}=\frac{1}{6}$

Part b

For this case we assume that $X\sim Gamma (2,1)$

On this case we assume that $\alpha=2, \beta= 1$

The density function for the Gamma distribution is given by:

$P(X)= \frac{\beta^{\alpha} x^{\alpha-1} e^{-\beta x}}{\gamma(\alpha)}$

And on this case we can find the probability using the complement rule like this:

$P(X>1) = 1-P(X\leq 1)=0.736$

We can solve this problem with the following excel code:

"=1-GAMMA.DIST(1;2;1;TRUE)"

And if we do it by hand we need to do this:

$P(X>1) = 1-P(X\leq 1)=1-\int_{0}^1 \frac{1^{2} x^{2-1} e^{- x}}{\gamma(2)}=0.736$

What percentage increase occurs in the price of a round-trip economy plane ticket from New York to London by electing to go duri

balandron [24]

To find the percent increase, you will first find the difference in price for the peak season economy and the regular economy price.

$526.3-$440.8=$85.50

Then divide the difference by the beginning price(economy).

85.50/440.8= 0.19

The percent increase is approximately 19%.
