Answer:

the length of ac is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

A is right angle, = 90⁰

B is 30⁰

ab = 16√3

↓

↑

A → ← B

If this right angle triangle is considered, length bc is the hypotenuse and length ac is the opposite side of angle B.

The length of ac is calculated as follows;

$tan \ B = \frac{opposite \ side}{adjacent \ side} \\\\tan \ B = \frac{ac}{ab} \\\\ac = ab \ \times \ tan \ B\\\\ac = 16\sqrt{3} \ \times \frac{\sqrt{3} }{3} \\\\ac = \frac{16 \sqrt{9} }{3} \\\\ac = \frac{16 \times 3}{3} \\\\ac = 16$

Therefore, the length of ac is 16.

To answer (a), we will need to find the Z value for 710 hours and 990 hours.

$\begin{gathered} For\text{ 710} \\ Z\text{ = }\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\ \text{ = }\frac{710-850}{70} \\ \text{ = -2} \\ p\text{ =0.0228 } \\ For\text{ 990:} \\ Z\text{ = }\frac{990-850}{70} \\ \text{ =2} \\ p\text{ = 0.9772} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} To\text{ find P \lparen–2 \le Z \le 2\rparen} \\ =\text{ 0.9772 -0.0228} \\ =\text{ 0.9544} \\ =95.44\% \end{gathered}$

B) 68% of data lies between one standard deviation of the mean.

850 +70 = 920

850 - 70 = 780

Choose the option that best answers the question.The points A(0, 0), B(0, 4a – 5) and C(2a + 1, 2a + 6) form a triangle. If Angl

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The correct option is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: The coordinates of a right angled triangle ABC are A(0, 0), B(0, 4a – 5) and C(2a + 1, 2a + 6). Angle ABC = 90°.

It means AB and BC are legs of the right angled triangle ABC.

Side AB lies on the y-axis because the x-coordinate of both A and B is 0.

Two legs are perpendicular to each other. So, BC must be parallel to x-axis and the y-coordinate of both B and C is must be same.

$4a-5=2a+6$

$4a-2a=5+6$

$2a=11$

Divide both sides by 2.

$a=\frac{11}{2}$

The value of a is 2. So the coordinates of triangle ABC are

$B(0,4a-5)=B(0,4(\frac{11}{2})-5)\Rightarrow B(0,17)$

$C(2a+1,2a+6)=C(2(\frac{11}{2})+1,2(\frac{11}{2})+6)\Rightarrow C(12,17)$

The area of a triangle is

$Area=\frac{1}{2}|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)|$

The area of triangle ABC is

$Area=\frac{1}{2}|0(17-17)+0(17-0)+12(0-17)|$

$Area=\frac{1}{2}|12(-17)|$

$Area=\frac{1}{2}|-204|$

$Area=\frac{1}{2}(204)$

$Area=102$

The area of triangle ABC is 102. Therefore the correct option is 1.

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

A = 40.0 (3 sig. fig)

C = 40

c = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Using sin law,

sinA/15 = sin100/23

A = 40.0 (3 sig. fig)

Using angle sum of triange,

C = 180 - 40.0 - 100 = 40

Since angleA = angleC, by side equal opp angles, c = 15

Sphinxa [80]

Answer

given,

the standard deviation:-

of the students height in the class = 4.2 inches

of the male heights in the class = 3.4 inches

of females height in the class = 3.3 inches

standard deviation is the deviation of the value from the target value.

the given question standard deviation of the students is more than that of the individual standard deviation of the heights of males and females because of the distribution of the entire class has more dispersion.
