Answer:

An approximately 2 minutes is expected to reach the front of the line

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value of minutes =

(1/4)^(1/5) + (1 - 1/4)^(1/5)

= (1/4)^0.2 + (3/4)^0.2

= 0.7579 + 0.9441

= 1.702.

≈ 2 minutes

What is the smallest positive degree angle measure equivalent to sin^-1 (0.391)?
natta225 [31]

Given:

The value is:

\sin^{-1}(0.391)

To find:

The smallest positive degree angle measure equivalent to \sin^{-1}(0.391).

Solution:

We have,

\sin^{-1}(0.391)

Using the scientific calculator, we get

\sin^{-1}(0.391)=23.0167366398^\circ

\sin^{-1}(0.391)\approx 23^\circ

Therefore, the smallest positive degree angle measure equivalent to \sin^{-1}(0.391) is 23 degrees.

Plz help super fast​
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

E: L is perpendicular to a line with slope -\frac{3}{2}.

Lines are perpendicular if the negative reciprocal of the slope is equal. For example, the reciprocal of \frac{2}{3} is \frac{3}{2} (remember, to get the reciprocal, simply switch the numerator and the denominator).

So, the negative reciprocal of \frac{2}{3} is -\frac{3}{2}. This represents the slope of a line that is perpendicular.
