Answer:

40\sqrt3\ m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The height of the tower, h = 40 m

The angle of elevation is 30°

We need to find the distance between the tower and the point. Let the distance is x. Using trigonometry,

\tan(30)=\dfrac{h}{x}\\\\\dfrac{1}{\sqrt3}=\dfrac{40}{x}\\\\x=40\sqrt3\ m

So, the distance between the tower and the point is equal to 40\sqrt3\ m.

In a particular game, a fair die is tossed. If the number of spots showing is either four or five, you win $1. If the number of
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The probability that you win at least $1 both times is 0.25 = 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each game, there are only two possible outcomes. Either you win at least $1, or you do not. Games are independent. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

Probability of winning at least $1 on a single game:

The die has 6 sides.

If it lands on 4, 5 or 6(either of the three sides), you win at least $1. So

p = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5

You are going to play the game twice.

This means that n = 2

The probability that you win at least $1 both times is

This is P(X = 2).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{2} = 0.25

The probability that you win at least $1 both times is 0.25 = 25%.

8. The total weight of a vase and its packaging is: 4 lb. 7 oz. The vase by itself
scoray [572]

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

the weight of the packaging materials is 12 oz. There are 16 oz in a pound. If the vase weighs 3 lb 11 oz, it would take 5 more oz to reach the next pound, and there was another 7 oz after that. You would then do 5 + 7, which is 12, so the packaging materials weigh 12 oz.

Aryana wants to invest $43,000. She has two options. Option A gives her 6% compounded quarterly. Option B gives her 6% simple in
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Option A earns higher interest($84115.58)

the difference in interest between the two option is  $197.9

Step-by-step explanation:

 In the problem we are going to apply both the simple interest formula and compound interest formula and compare which has the best/higher returns

Given data

Principal P= $43,000

Rate r= 6%= 0.06

time t= 3years

n= 4 (applicable for compound interest compounded quarterly)

solving for option A gives her 6% compounded quarterly

the compound interest formula is

A= P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^n^t\\A= 43000(1+\frac{0.06}{4} )^{4} ^*^3

A=43000(1+0.015)^{12} \\A=43000(1.015)^{12} \\A=43000*1.1956\\A= 51411.58

Interest is A-P= 51411.58-43000= 8411.58=$8411.58

solving for option B  which gives her 6% simple interest annually

the simple interest formula is

A=P(1+r)^{t} \\A=43000(1+0.06)^3\\A=43000(1.06)^3\\A=43000*1.191\\A= 51213.68

Interest isA-P=51213.68-43000= 8213.68= $8213.68

calculating the diference in interest between the two options we have

8411.58-8213.68= 197.9= $197.9

Option A earns higher interest
