12 pts? Harris and Annabelle are 200 feet apart, and they are standing on opposite sides of a tree. The angles of elevation from

Harris to the top of the tree is 30°, and the angle of elevation from Annabelle to the top of the tree is 35°. Find the height of the tree. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

If we are to connect the root of the tree to a person to the top of the tree, we form two right triangles. If we let x and and 200 - x be the distance of Harris and Annabelle from the tree, respectively and h be the height, we form the trigonometric functions,
                                       tan 30° = h/x
                                       tan 35° = h/(200 - x)
The values of h and x in the equations are 63.28 ft and 109.62 ft, respectively. Thus, the answer to this item is approximately 63.28 ft.

A rectangular prism is made of 81 unit cubes. The prism is 9 unit cubes long.
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

A width: 3 unit cubes

height 3 unit cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of rectangular prism = 81 unit cubes

l = Length of rectangular prism = 9 unit cubes

w = Width of rectangular prism

h = Height of rectangular prism

Volume of a rectangular prism is given by

V=lwh\\\Rightarrow 81=9wh\\\Rightarrow wh=\dfrac{81}{9}\\\Rightarrow wh=9

The product of width and height must be 9 so from the options this is only possible when width and height both are 3 units.

So, the width is 3 unit cubes and the height is 3 unit cubes.

Passes through (4,-5), slope = 3/4
Alchen [17]
Equation = y = mx + b
y = 3/4x + b

Calculation for b.,
-5 = 3/4 * 4 + b
b = -5/3

So, your final answer is y = 3/4x - 5/3

Hope this helps!

A public health organization reports that 40%of baby boys 6-8 months old in the United
Sveta_85 [38]

Using the binomial distribution, the probabilities are given as follows:

  • 0.3675 = 36.75% probability that more than 4 weigh more than 20 pounds.
  • 0.1673 = 16.73% probability that fewer than 3 weigh more than 20 pounds.
  • Since P(X > 7) < 0.05, it would be unusual if more than 7 of them weigh more than 20 pounds.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

The values of the parameters for this problem are:

n = 10, p = 0.4.

The probability that more than 4 weigh more than 20 pounds is:

P(X > 4) = 1 - P(X \leq 4)

In which:

P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

Then:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.4)^{0}.(0.6)^{10} = 0.0061

P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.4)^{1}.(0.6)^{9} = 0.0403

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.4)^{2}.(0.6)^{8} = 0.1209

P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.4)^{3}.(0.6)^{7} = 0.2150

P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.4)^{4}.(0.6)^{6} = 0.2502

Hence:

P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.0061 + 0.0403 + 0.1209 + 0.2150 + 0.2502 = 0.6325

P(X > 4) = 1 - P(X \leq 4) = 1 - 0.6325 = 0.3675

0.3675 = 36.75% probability that more than 4 weigh more than 20 pounds.

The probability that fewer than 3 weigh more than 20 pounds is:

P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0061 + 0.0403 + 0.1209 = 0.1673

0.1673 = 16.73% probability that fewer than 3 weigh more than 20 pounds.

For more than 7, the probability is:

P(X > 7) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 8) = C_{10,8}.(0.4)^{8}.(0.6)^{2} = 0.0106

P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.4)^{9}.(0.6)^{1} = 0.0016

P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.4)^{10}.(0.6)^{0} = 0.0001

Since P(X > 7) < 0.05, it would be unusual if more than 7 of them weigh more than 20 pounds.
