Answer:

15.10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be helpful to draw the figure from the problem statement above. Drawing it, would give you a right triangle shape where the base is equal to 10 ft + 8 ft = 18 ft with the angle of 40 degrees. We use knowledge on trigonometric functions to solve this.

tan (theta) = opposite side / adjacent side

tan 40 = x / 18

x = 15.10 ft

For questions 8 – 10, answer the questions about tangent-tangent angles.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

m(arc ZWY) = 305°

Step-by-step explanation:

8). Formula for the angle formed outside the circle by the intersection of two tangents or two secants is,

Angle formed by two tangents = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Difference of intercepted arcs})$

= $\frac{1}{2}(220-140)$

= $\frac{1}{2}(80)$

= 40°

9). Following the same rule as above,

Angle formed between two tangents = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Difference of intercepted arcs})$

125 = $\frac{1}{2}[m(\text{major arc})-m(\text{minor arc})]$

250 = $[m(\text{arc ZWY})-m(\text{arc ZY})]$

250 = m(arc ZWY) - 55

m(arc ZWY) = 305°

Therefore, measure of arc ZWY = 305° will be the answer.

10). m(arc BAC) = $\frac{1}{2}([m(\text{arc BDC})-m(\text{arc BC})])$

= $\frac{1}{2}(254-106)$

= $\frac{148}{2}$

= 74°

Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 26% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage

quester [9]

Answer: a) -0.2252, b) 0.8219

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sample size n = 100

Probability that candies are blue = p= 0.26

Probability that company claims that it is blue candy = P = 0.27

So, Q = 1-P= 1-0.27 = 0.73

So, Null hypothesis : $H_0:p=P$

Alternate hypothesis : $H_1:p\neq P$

So, the test statistic would be

$z=\dfrac{p-P}{\sqrt{\dfrac{P.Q}{n}}}\\\\z=\dfrac{0.26-0.27}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.27\times 0.73}{100}}}\\\\z=-0.2252$

Since α = 0.05

So, critical value of z = 1.96

p-value = P(Z>Z(calculated)

Using the excel function , we get that

$P(z>0.2252)\\\\=2\times 0.410.911845\\\\=0.8219$

Hence, a) -0.2252, b) 0.8219
