Two lighthouses are located 60 miles from one another on a north-south line. If a boat is spotted S 21o E from the northern ligh

jasenka [17]

Answer:

(A)The northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle attached represents the given problem.

First, let us determine the distance of the Boat from each of the lighthouse.

In Triangle ABC,

∠A+∠B+∠C=180 degrees

21+∠B+16=180

∠B=180-37=143 degrees.

Using Law of Sines

$\frac{a}{Sin A}=\frac{b}{Sin B}\\\frac{a}{Sin 21^0}=\frac{60}{Sin 143^0} \\\text{Cross Multiply}\\a*sin143=60*sin21\\a=60*sin21\div sin143\\a=35.73 miles$

Similarly

$\frac{c}{Sin C}=\frac{b}{Sin B}\\\frac{c}{Sin 16^0}=\frac{60}{Sin 143^0} \\\text{Cross Multiply}\\c*sin143=60*sin16\\c=60*sin16\div sin143\\c=27.48 miles$

Difference in Distance =35.73-27.48=8.25 miles

Therefore, the northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.

Select the correct answer. Which sentence correctly describes a data set that follows a normal distribution with a standard devi

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: Option (c) is correct.

68% of the data points lie between 10 and 18.

Step-by-step explanation: Given : a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14

We have to choose the sentence that correctly describes a data set that follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14.

Since, given 68% data.

We know mean of data lies in middle.

And standard deviation is distribute equally about the mean that is 50% of values less than the mean and 50% greater than the mean.

So, 68% of data lies

mean - standard deviation = 14 - 4 = 10

mean + standard deviation = 14 + 4 = 18

So, 68% of the data points lie between 10 and 18.

Draw the line of reflection that reflects quadrilateral ABCD onto quadrilateral A'B'C'D'

MArishka [77]

The two points are (-4, -2) and (4, 5) and the equation of the line is 8y = 7x + 12 passing through the two points.

<h3>What is geometric transformation?</h3>

It is defined as the change in coordinates and the shape of the geometrical body. It is also referred to as a two-dimensional transformation. In the geometric transformation, changes in the geometry can be possible by rotation, translation, reflection, and glide translation.

We have a quadrilateral ABCD which is reflected over a line and formed a mirror image A'B'C'D' of the quadrilateral.

From the graph:

The two points are (-4, -2) and (4, 5)

The line equation passing through two points:

[y - 5] = (5+2)/(4+4)[x - 4]

y - 5 = 7/8[x - 4]

8y - 40 = 7x - 28

8y = 7x + 12

Thus, the two points are (-4, -2) and (4, 5) and the equation of the line is 8y = 7x + 12 passing through the two points.
