Answer:
Orion's belt width is 184 light years
Step-by-step explanation:
So we want to find the distance between Alnitak and Mintaka, which is the Orions belts
Let the distance between the Alnitak and Mintaka be x,
Then applying cosine
c²=a²+b²—2•a•b•Cosθ
The triangle is formed by the 736 light-years and 915 light years
Artemis from Alnitak is
a = 736lightyear
Artemis from Mintaka is
b = 915 light year
The angle between Alnitak and Mintaka is θ=3°
Then,
Applying the cosine rule
c²=a²+b²—2•a•b•Cosθ
c² =736² + 915² - 2×, 736×915×Cos3
c² = 541,696 + 837,225 - 1,345,034.1477702404
c² = 33,886.85222975954
c = √33,886.85222975954
c = 184.0838184897 light years
c = 184.08 light years
So, to the nearest light year, Orion's belt width is 184 light years
If the number is x, then:
6x+1= (x-1)^2
Now we just need to simplify it
6x+1=(x-1)*(x-1)
6x+1=x^2-2x+1
8x=x^2
8=x
The number is 8.
To check the answer
6*8+1=7^2
49=49
correct :)

Answer:
a)0.7
b) 10.03
c) 0.0801
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of return Probability
9.5 0.1
9.8 0.2
10 0.3
10.2 0.3
10.6 0.1
a.
P(Rate of return is at least 10%)=P(R=10)+P(R=10.2)+P(R=10.6)
P(Rate of return is at least 10%)=0.3+0.3+0.1
P(Rate of return is at least 10%)=0.7
b)
Expected rate of return=E(x)=sum(x*p(x))
Rate of return(x) Probability(p(x)) x*p(x)
9.5 0.1 0.95
9.8 0.2 1.96
10 0.3 3
10.2 0.3 3.06
10.6 0.1 1.06
Expected rate of return=E(x)=sum(x*p(x))
Expected rate of return=0.95+1.96+3+3.06+1.06=10.03
c)
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=![sum(x^2p(x))-[sum(x*p(x))]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=sum%28x%5E2p%28x%29%29-%5Bsum%28x%2Ap%28x%29%29%5D%5E2)
Rate of return(x) Probability(p(x)) x*p(x) x²*p(x)
9.5 0.1 0.95 9.025
9.8 0.2 1.96 19.208
10 0.3 3 30
10.2 0.3 3.06 31.212
10.6 0.1 1.06 11.236
sum[x²*p(x)]=9.025+19.208+30+31.212+11.236=100.681
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=sum(x²*p(x))-[sum(x*p(x))]²
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=100.681-(10.03)²
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=100.681-100.6009
variance of the rate of return=V(x)=0.0801
Answer:
Option (b) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 
We have too choose the correct simplification for the given statement.
Consider 
Using property of exponents,
