Answer:

BC ≈ 14.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin65° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{BC}{AB}$ = $\frac{BC}{16}$ ( multiply both sides by 16 )

16 × sin65° = BC , then

BC ≈ 14.5 cm ( to the nearest tenth )

Answer:

$\boxed{\large\sf y = 3x - 5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given a equation which is ,

$\longrightarrow y = 3x + 6$

We need to find out the equation of the line which is parallel to the given line and passes through the given point .

And as we know that the slope of two parallel lines are equal .

On comparing the given equation with slope intercept form (y = mx + c )of the line , we have ,

$\longrightarrow m = 3$

Therefore the slope of the parallel line will be ,

$\longrightarrow m_{||}= 3$

Now we can use the point slope form of the line which is ,

$\longrightarrow y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$

Substitute ,

$\longrightarrow y - 7 = 3 ( x -4)\\\\\longrightarrow y -7 = 3x -12 \\\\\longrightarrow y = 3x -12+7\\\\\longrightarrow y = 3x -5$

This is the required answer .

The depth y (in inches) of a lake after x years is represented by the equation y=0.2x+42 . How much does the depth of the lake i

blagie [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the expression for the depth of a lake after x years is given by

$y=0.2x+42$

Required

The value of y when x= 4

Step two:

substitute the value of x in the expression to get y

$y=0.2(4)+42\\\\y=0.8+42\\\\y=42.8\\\\$

After 4 years the depth will increase by 42.8 in

The distribution of the number of siblings for students at a large high school is skewed to the right with mean 1.8 siblings and

morpeh [17]

Answer:

E. Approximately normal with standard deviation less than 0.7 sibling

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we use the Central Limit theorem.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$
