Answer:

23 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

During a test flight, Jeri's rocket reached a height of 18 yards. This was 7 yards less than the height of Devon's rocket. Write and solve a subtraction equation to find the height of Devon's rocket.

Let us represent the height of Devon's rocket = x

18 yards = x - 7 yards

x = 18 yards + 7 yards

x = 23 yards

The height of Devon's rocket = 23 yards

find sin(alpha-beta) if sin alpha =-5/13 with alpha between pi and 3pi/2; cos beta=2/5 with beta between 3pi/2 and 2pi
ludmilkaskok [199]
        sin(α) = ⁻⁵/₁₃
sin⁻¹[sin(α)] = sin⁻¹(⁻⁵/₁₃)
               α ≈ 1.1256π

          cos(β) = ²/₅
cos⁻¹[cos(β)] = cos⁻¹(²/₅)
                 β ≈ 1.6311π

sin(α - β) = sin(1.1256π - 1.6311π)
sin(α - β) = sin(-0.5055π)
sin(α - β) = -sin(0.5055π)
sin(α - β) = -sin(90.99)
sin(α - β) ≈ -0.116

The commuting time for a student to travel from home to a college campus is normally distributed with a mean of 30 minutes and a
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

0.1587

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the commuting time for the student. We know that X\sim N(30, (5)^2). Then, the normal probability density function for the random variable X is given by

f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi(5)^{2}}}\exp[-\frac{(x-\mu)^{2}}{2(5)^{2}}]. We are seeking the probability P(X>35) because the student leaves home at 8:25 A.M., we want to know the probability that the student will arrive at the college campus later than 9 A.M. and between 8:25 A.M. and 9 A.M. there are 35 minutes of difference. So,

 

P(X>35) = \int\limits_{35}^{\infty}f(x)dx = 0.1587

To find this probability you can use either a table from a book or a programming language. We have used the R statistical programming language an the instruction pnorm(35, mean = 30, sd = 5, lower.tail = F)

A scientist needs 4.8 liters of a 12% alcohol solution. She has available a 22% and a 10% solution. How many liters of the 22% a
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

  • 4.0 L of 10%
  • 0.8 L of 22%

Step-by-step explanation:

For mixture problems, it is convenient to define a variable to represent the amount of the greatest contributor. Let x represent the amount of 22% solution in the mix. Then 4.8-x is the amount of 10% solution.

The amount of alcohol in the mix is ...

  0.22x +0.10(4.8-x) = 0.12(4.8)

Eliminating parentheses, we have ...

  0.22x -0.10x +0.10(4.8) = 0.12(4.8)

Subtracting (0.10)(4.8) and combining x-terms gives ...

  0.12x = 0.02(4.8)

  x = (0.02/0.12)(4.8) = 0.8 . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient

The scientist needs 0.8 L of 22% solution and 4.0 L of 10% solution.
