Answer:

x ≈ 2879.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of ∠DAC = 10°

Measure of ∠DAB = 90°

Measure of ∠BAC = 90° - 10° = 80°

By applying cosine rule in ΔABC,

cos(80°) = \frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

              = \frac{AB}{AC}

0.17365 = \frac{500}{x}

x = \frac{500}{0.17365}

x = 2879.36

x ≈ 2879.4 m

*I thought of a number, added 18, then multiplied the result by 8. I got 16. What was my number?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

-16

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number by n.

Then:

8(n + 18) = 16

Performing the indicated multiplication, we get:

8n + 144 = 16

Subtracting 144 from both sides results in 8n = -128.

Dividing both sides by 8:  n = -128/8  =  -16

The number was -16.

What is the solution to this system of equations?<br><br><br>4x + 5y = 7<br><br><br>3x – 2y = –12
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

x = -2 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

4x + 5y = 7    -----(1)

3x – 2y = –12   ----(2)

<u>To find the value of x and y</u>

eq(1) * 3 ⇒

12x + 15y = 21   ----(3)

eq(2) * 4 ⇒

12x - 8y = -48  ---(4)

eq(3) - eq(4) ⇒

12x + 15y = 21   ----(3)

<u>12x - 8y = -48 </u> ---(4)

 0 + 23y = 69

y = 69/23 = 3

Substitute the value of y in eq(1)

4x + 5y = 7    ----(1)

4x + 5*3 = 7

4x = 7 - 15 = -8

x = -8/4 = -2

Therefore x = -2 and y = 3

The operation manager at a tire manufacturing company believes that the mean mileage of a tire is 48,564 miles, with a standard
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

0.0091 = 0.91% probability that the sample mean would be less than 48,101 miles in a sample of 281 tires if the manager is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central limit theorem:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 48564, \sigma = 3293, n = 281, s = \frac{3293}{\sqrt{281}} = 196.44

What is the probability that the sample mean would be less than 48,101 miles in a sample of 281 tires if the manager is correct?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 48101. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{48101 - 48564}{196.44}

Z = -2.36

Z = -2.36 has a pvalue of 0.0091

0.0091 = 0.91% probability that the sample mean would be less than 48,101 miles in a sample of 281 tires if the manager is correct
