Answer:

The estimate of the proportion of oil tankers that had spills is 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion of oil tankers that had spills:

1036 tankers.

777 did not have spills.

So 1036 - 777 = 259 had spills.

The proportion is:

$p = \frac{259}{1036} = 0.25$

The estimate of the proportion of oil tankers that had spills is 0.25.

is it possible draw a right triangle with and obtuse angle? if so draw it in the box if not write impossible. is it possible guy

Ipatiy [6.2K]

It is not possible. Since one of the angles has to be a right angle, the other two angles would have to add to 90. Therefore, neither of these angles can be more than 90 degrees.

Hope this helps

Find a general solution of y" + 4y = 0.

klio [65]

Answer:

$y(x)=C_{1}cos2x+C_{2}sin(2x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a linear homogeneous differential equation with constant coefficients:

y" + 4y = 0

Its characteristic equation:

r^2+4=0

r1=2i

r2=-2i

We use these roots in order to find the general solution:

$y(x)=C_{1}cos2x+C_{2}sin(2x)$
