Answer:

124.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using the Trigonometric function of Tangent

= tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent

θ = Angle of Elevation = 73°

Adjacent = 38 ft

Opposite = x

Hence

tan 73° = x/38 ft

Cross Multiply

x = tan 73° × 38 ft

x = 124.2923995 ft

Approximately = 124.3 ft

Therefore, Nick is 124.3 ft from the ground.

A box contains 24 yellow, 33 green and 35 red jelly beans. If 8 jelly beans are selected at random, what is the probability that
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

0.00014

Step-by-step explanation:

The box contains a total of 24 + 33 + 35 = 92 jelly beans

If we need to pick 8 jelly beans and want them all to be green:

We can choose 8 green jelly beans from 33 green in  C₃₃,₈ different ways

The total ways we can choose 8 jelly beans out from 92 is: C₉₂,₈

Thus, the probability we're looking for is C₃₃,₈ / C₉₂,₈ = 13884156/93080887185 =0.00014

the volume of a cylinder is 411π in^3. The height of the cylinder is 9 in. Calculate the diameter of the cylinder to the nearest
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

13.5 in, or 34.3 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, use the formula volume = pi * r^2 * height- you have the volume, so just solve the equation 411pi = pi * 9 * r^2 for r, and you get that r = 6.75. Since diameter is equal to 2r, multiply 6.75 by 2 to get your answer of 13.5 inches. The questions asks for the diameter in centimeters though, which makes it 34.3 cm.

Hopefully this helps- let me know if you have any questions!

Write the equation in slope intercept form<br> 2x+y=6
Rina8888 [55]

Answer: the slope intercept form of 2x+y=6 is y=-2+6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+y=6  (subtract 2x from both sides)

-2x    -2x  (the -2x and the 2x cancel leaving...)

<u><em>y=-2x+6</em></u>  →( y equals negative two x plus six)
