So a general harmonic equation is Asin(2πt/T). Little t is just a variable. 6 inches is the height of one maximum and one minimum from equilibrium, so that is the amplitude A. T is the period, or the time of one cycle (or wavelength), which is 2 seconds.
The equation is therefore (in terms of seconds and inches), 6*sin(2πt/2), or 6*sin(πt).
The answer to your question is 8.1
Answer:
Probability of at least two cuckoo eggs is 0.738.
Step-by-step explanation:
probability of cuckoo egg = 0.1
probability of not a cuckoo egg = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9
Probability of at least two cuckoo eggs is
= Probability of two cuckoo eggs x probability of 1 not cuckoo egg +
probability of three cuckoo eggs
= 0.1 x 0.1 x 0.9 + 0.9 x 0.9 x 0.9
= 0.009 + 0.729
= 0.738
I believe the answer to this one would be 75.0%
