It appears that the Pythagorean theorem can be applied to this problem
(distance to shadow)² = (height of building)² + (length of shadow)²
(38 m)² = (height of building)² + (28 m)²
660 m² = (height of building)²
Then the height of the building is
height of building = √660 m ≈ 25.7 m
Answer:
0.292
Step-by-step explanation:
Combinations can be used to solve the following problem.
We are choosing 5 widgets from 25 = ²⁵C₅
We want to select zero widgets from defective widgets = ⁵C₀
From the 20 non-defective widgets we want to select 5 = ²⁰C₅
So the probability is:
P = ( ⁵C₀ * ²⁰C₅) / ²⁰C₅
P = (1 * 15504) / 53130
= 15504/ 53130
=0.292 ..
In order to answer the above question, you should know the general rule to solve these questions.
The general rule states that there are 2ⁿ subsets of a set with n number of elements and we can use the logarithmic function to get the required number of bits.
That is:
log₂(2ⁿ) = n number of <span>bits
</span>
a). <span>What is the minimum number of bits required to store each binary string of length 50?
</span>
Answer: In this situation, we have n = 50. Therefore, 2⁵⁰ binary strings of length 50 are there and so it would require:
log₂(2⁵⁰) <span>= 50 bits.
b). </span><span>what is the minimum number of bits required to store each number with 9 base of ten digits?
</span>
Answer: In this situation, we have n = 50. Therefore, 10⁹ numbers with 9 base ten digits are there and so it would require:
log2(109)= 29.89
<span> = 30 bits. (rounded to the nearest whole #)
c). </span><span>what is the minimum number of bits required to store each length 10 fixed-density binary string with 4 ones?
</span>
Answer: There is (10,4) length 10 fixed density binary strings with 4 ones and
so it would require:
log₂(10,4)=log₂(210) = 7.7
= 8 bits. (rounded to the nearest whole #)
Answer: 6 and -1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
solving for y. You get y = -2x +5, so the slope is –2. Perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes, so the slope of the line we want to find is 1/2. Plugging in the point given into the equation y = 1/2x + b and solving for b, we get b = 6.
