Answer:

The probability mass function  that you never win ^xC_o = (\dfrac{999999}{1000000})^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

the winning chance of a weekly local lottery = \dfrac{1}{10^6}

= \dfrac{1}{1000000}

The probability of losing = 1 - probability of winning (winning chance)

The probability of losing = 1- \dfrac{1}{1000000}

The probability of losing =\dfrac{999999}{1000000}

The probability mass function  that you never win ^xC_o = (\dfrac{1}{10^6} )^0 ( \dfrac{999999}{1000000})^x

The probability mass function  that you never win ^xC_o = (\dfrac{999999}{1000000})^x

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

m<1=?

m<2=4x-20..........(1)

m<4=3x-11.............(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

  • m<2=m<4(corresponding angle of parrelelogram are equal)
  • 4x-20=3x-11
  • 4x-3x=20-11
  • x=9

again.we have

<1+<2=180(co-interior angle)

<1=180-<2=180-(4×9-20)=180-16=164

Find the slope of the line that passes through (87, 91) and (88, -4).
Elanso [62]
<h2>Answer:    slope = - 95</h2><h2> </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:    

      The question gives us two points, (87, 91) and (88, -4), from which we can find the slope and later the equation of the line.

<u> </u>

<u>Finding the Slope</u>  

The slope of the line (m) = (y₂ - y₁) ÷ (x₂ - x₁)      

                                        =  (91 - (- 4)) ÷ (87 - 88)    

                                        =  - 95

<em><u /></em>

<em><u /></em>

<em><u>Checking my answer:</u></em>

<em>Finding the Equation</em>  

We can now use the point-slope form (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)) to write the equation for this line:  

                                ⇒  y - (-4) =  - 95 (x - 88)

                                       y + 4 =  - 95 (x - 88)

<em>To test my answer, I have included a Desmos Graph that I graphed using the information provided in the question and my answer.</em>

looks out from the crown of the Statue of Liberty, approximately 250 ft above ground. The tourist sees a ship coming into the ha
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The distance from the base of the statue to the ship is 771.60 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer the attached figure

Height of statue AB= 250 feet

The tourist sees a ship coming into the harbor and measures the angle of depression as 18°.

So, ∠ACB = 18°

We are supposed to find the distance from the base of the statue to the ship i.e. BC

In ΔABC

Tan \theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

Tan 18^{\circ}=\frac{AB}{BC}

Tan 18^{\circ}=\frac{250}{BC}

BC=\frac{250}{Tan 18^{\circ}}

BC=\frac{250}{0.324}

BC=771.60 ft

Hence the distance from the base of the statue to the ship is 771.60 ft
