wins $ 1700 and also the person is given back the cost of the ticket. For someone who buys a ticket, what is the Expected Value (the mean of the distribution)? If the Expected Value is negative, be sure to include the "-" sign with the answer. Express the answer rounded to two decimal places.

In AGHI, h = 300 inches, G=30° and H=29º. Find the length of i, to the nearest<br> inch.

dalvyx [7]

Given:

In triangle GHI, h = 300 inches, G=30° and H=29º.

To find:

The length of i.

Solution:

We have, G=30° and H=29º.

Using angle sum property, we get

$m\angle G+m\angle H+m\angle I=180^\circ$

$30^\circ+29^\circ+m\angle I=180^\circ$

$59^\circ+m\angle I=180^\circ$

$m\angle I=180^\circ-59^\circ$

$m\angle I=121^\circ$

According to Law of sines,

$\dfrac{a}{\sin A}=\dfrac{b}{\sin B}=\dfrac{c}{\sin C}$

Using Law of sines, we get

$\dfrac{h}{\sin H}=\dfrac{i}{\sin I}$

$\dfrac{300}{\sin 29^\circ}=\dfrac{i}{\sin 121^\circ}$

$\dfrac{300}{0.4848}=\dfrac{i}{0.8572}$

Multiply both sides by 0.8572.

$\dfrac{300}{0.4848}\times 0.8572=i$

$530.44554=i$

$i\approx 530$

Therefore, the length of i is about 530 inches.

The height h in feet of a ball thrown vertically upward from the top of a 288-foot tall building is given by h=288+48t-16t^2 whe

mr Goodwill [35]

6 sec can take penny to strike the ground.

Solution:

Given data:

$H_0=288$ feet

$V_0=48$ feet

$h(t)=288+48t-16t^2$

Re-arrange the terms from greatest degree to smallest degree.

$h(t)=-16t^2+48t+288$

We can solve it by applying quadratic formula,

$$x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Here a = –16, b = 48, c = 288

$$t=\frac{-48\pm \sqrt{48^2-4(-16)(288)}}{2(-16)}$

$$t=\frac{-48\pm \sqrt{2304+18432}}{-32}$

$$t=\frac{-48\pm \sqrt{20736}}{-32}$

$$t=\frac{-48\pm144}{-32}$

Now, write find two t's using plus and minus operation.

$$t=\frac{-48+144}{-32},\ \ t=\frac{-48-144}{-32}$

$$t=\frac{96}{-32},\ \ t=\frac{-192}{-32}$

t = –3 (or) t = 6

We cannot write time is negative. so neglect t = –3.

Therefore t = 6.

Hence 6 sec can take penny to strike the ground.
