Answer:

d= 36.016m

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given angle B, the adjacent side, and we need the opposite side, we can use Tan to find d using angle B and the adjacent side.

Tan(42)=d/40

We multiply both sides with 40:

(40)Tan(42)=d

Use a calculator to find the final solution:

40(0.9004)=d

36.016=d

Note: 0.9004 is the solution to tan(42)

(A)

P(<em>X</em> < 61.25) = P((<em>X</em> - 55.4)/4.1 < (61.25 - 55.4)/4.1)

… ≈ P(<em>Z</em> ≤ 0.1427)

… ≈ 0.5567

(B)

P(<em>X</em> > 46.5) = P((<em>X</em> - 55.4)/4.1 > (46.5 - 55.4)/4.1)
