Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Range of data set: 12 - 6 = 6

Given that there is a uniform distribution:

P(6<x<7) = 1/6

P(7<x<8) = 1/6

P(8<x<9) = 1/6

P(9<x<10) = 1/6

P(10<x<11) = 1/6

P(11<x<12) = 1/6

where x is weight loss

Probability that weight loss is more than 10 pounds:

P(10<x<11) + P(11<x<12) = 1/6 + 1/6 = 1/3

Given the trinomial, what is the value of the coefficient 'B' in the factored form?

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

B=9 (I'll solve right now, just so you get the answer)

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x^2+14xy-36y^2=2(x+By)(x-2y)$

Expand right side by distributing

$(2x+2By)(x-2y)$

Use the FOIL method to simplify (first, outside, inside, last):

$(a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd$

$(2x*x)+(2x*(-2y))+(2By*x)+(2By*(-2y))\\\\$

Simplify

$2x^2-4xy+2Byx-4By^2$

Re-insert

$2x^2+14xy-36y^2=2x^2-4xy+2Byx-4By^2$

Cancel out $2x^2$

$14xy-36y^2=-4xy+2Byx-4By^2$

Move all terms to one side

$14xy-36y^2+4xy-2Byx+4By^2=0$

Simplify

$18xy-36y^2-2Byx+By^2=0$

Factor out the common term 2

$2(9xy-18y^2-Byx+2By^2)$

Write an inequality that represents the graph.

Anika [276]

Answer:

$y - 2x - 1 = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is :

$\tan( \alpha ) = 4 \div 2 = 2$

at a pt on graph , when

$x = 1 \\ y = 3 \\$

therefore, coordinates are (1,3)

The equation is :

$(y - 3) = slope \times (x - 1) \\ (y - 3) = 2 \times (x - 1) \\ y - 3 = 2x - 2 \\ y - 2x - 1 = 0$

From the top of a light house 60 meters high with its base at sea level, the angle of depression to a boat is 15o. What is the d

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Distance between boat and light house = 223.88 meter (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of light house = 60 meters

Angle of depression to boat = 15°

Find:

Distance between boat and light house

Computation:

Using trigonometry application:

Tanθ = Perpendicular / Base

Tan 15 = Height of light house / Distance between boat and light house

0.268 = 60 / Distance between boat and light house

Distance between boat and light house = 60 / 0.268

Distance between boat and light house = 223.88 meter (Approx.)
