pantera1 [17]2 years ago

Answers:

tan(A) = 8/15

sin(A) = 8/17

cos(A) = 15/17

==================================================

Explanation:

The tangent ratio involves the opposite over adjacent. With respect to angle A, the opposite side is 8 units long as this side is as far as possible away from angle A. In contrast, the adjacent side is 15 units long because this leg is closest possible and the two are right next to one another.

Therefore,

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(A) = BC/AC

tan(A) = 8/15

---------------

As for the other trig ratios, they are:

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

which explains why sin(A) and cos(A) are 8/17 and 15/17 respectively.

A rectangular prism and a square pyramid were joined to form a composite figure.
azamat

Answer:

B. 333 in.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the base is 81^2

lateral is 45 x 4 = 180^2  (9x5x4)

180^2 add the 72 pyramid = 252^2 + base of 81^2 = 333^2

Composite figueres i do like this as shown to you a few seconds ago.

The triangle shows us just the height

4 inches

We can see that height is smaller central isosceles height across the center base point.

We also can remember to use the length 9inches but divide by 2 and get each triangle area this way.

4 x 1/2 base = 4x 1/2 4.5 = 4 x 2.25 = 9^2 each right side triangle

9 x 8 = 72^2

we add the areas 72+ 81+lateral 180 = 333 inches^2

Feliz [49]

A financial analyst wanted to estimate the mean annual return on mutual funds. A random sample of 60 funds' returns shows an average rate of 12%. If the population standard deviation is assumed to be 4%, the 95% confidence interval estimate for the annual return on all mutual funds is

A. 0.037773 to 0.202227

B. 3.7773% to 20.2227%

C. 59.98786% to 61.01214%

D. 51.7773% to 68.2227%

E. 10.988% to 13.012%

Answer: E. 10.988% to 13.012%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Mean x= 12%

Standard deviation r = 4%

Number of samples tested n = 60

Confidence interval is 95%

Z' = t(0.025)= 1.96

Confidence interval = x +/- Z'(r/√n)

= 12% +/- 1.96(4%/√60)

= 12% +/- 0.01214%

Confidence interval= (10.988% to 13.012%)

Given the function f(x) = 3x, find the value of f−1(81).
Shalnov [3]
Given the function f (x) = 3x, find the value of f-1 (81).
 For this case, the first thing you should do is rewrite the function.
 We have then:
 y = 3 ^ x
 From here, we clear the value of x:
 log3 (y) = log3 (3 ^ x)
 log3 (y) = x
 Then, we rewrite the function again:
 f (x) ^ - 1 = log3 (x)
 Now, we evaluate the inverse function for x = 81:
 f (81) ^ - 1 = log3 (81)
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
 Answer:
 the value of f-1 (81) is: 
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
