6 0

5x + 6 = 21
-6 -6
-------------------
5x = 21
(divide 5 on both sides to get rid of the number to get the variable by itself on both sides which makes X = 4.2

69.6% of all full-time law enforcement officers are sworn officers, and of those, 88.2% were males. Females, however, make up 60

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The probability that he or she is a male or a civilian employee is 1.037068

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of sworn officers = 0.696

Probability of civilians = 1 - 0.696 = 0.304

Probability of male sworn officers = 0.882*0.696 = 0.6139

Probability of male civilian = (0.304*(1-0.608)) = 0.1192

Hence probability that he or she is a male or civilian employee is

0.6139 + 0.1192 + 0.304 = 1.037068

39. Tugboat A and Tugboat B are pulling a barge. Each tugboat is connected to the barge via a

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

$26.903^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 77 m

b = 72 m

c = Distance between the tugboats = 35 m

$m\angle C$ = Angle between the cables

$c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos C\\\Rightarrow m\angle C=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{c^2-a^2-b^2}{-2ab}\\\Rightarrow m\angle C=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{35^2-77^2-72^2}{-2\times 77\times 72}\\\Rightarrow m\angle C=26.903^{\circ}$
