Remark
You are dealing with a right angle triangle. You can use one of Sin(x) Cos(x) or Tan(x). Since the Hypotenuse is involved and since you are given the adjacent side, Cos(71) is what you will need.
Solution
H = BC
Cos(x) = adjactent / hypotenuse
Cos(71) = 6.3 / H Multiply both sides by H
H * Cos(71) = 6.3 Divide by Cos(71)
H = 6.3 / cos(71) Cos(71) = 0.32557
H = 6.3 / 0.32557 Divide
H = BC = 19.351 Answer
Answer:
0.0177 = 1.77% probability that the first defect is caused by the seventh component tested.
The expected number of components tested before a defective component is found is 50, with a variance of 0.0208.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the probability of a defective computer component is 0.02. Components are randomly selected. Find the probability that the first defect is caused by the seventh component tested.
First six not defective, each with 0.98 probability.
7th defective, with 0.02 probability. So

0.0177 = 1.77% probability that the first defect is caused by the seventh component tested.
Find the expected number and variance of the number of components tested before a defective component is found.
Inverse binomial distribution, with 
Expected number before 1 defective(n = 1). So

Variance is:

The expected number of components tested before a defective component is found is 50, with a variance of 0.0208.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a rough estimate is 26 because 20+2(3)=26
3 pounds of apples are 6.36
19.75+ 2.12(3) = 26.11
Answer:
h = 9 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the diagram is like the one below.
∆ABD is a right triangle.
We can use Pythagoras' Theorem to find the height h.
