The tree was approximately 40.8ft tall.
You use the equation, a^2+b^2=c^2.
12^2 + 39^2 = x^2, add the results of 12^2 and 39^2 to make 1665 = x^2. You can take the positive root of both sides, 3√185, and it equals 40.80441152, which is rounded to 40.8.
<h3>Rate of the boat in still water is 70 km/hr and rate of the current is 15 km/hr</h3><h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given that,
A motorboat travels 165 kilometers in 3 hours going upstream and 510 kilometers in 6 hours going downstream
Therefore,
Upstream distance = 165 km
Upstream time = 3 hours
<h3><u>Find upstream speed:</u></h3>

Thus upstream speed is 55 km per hour
Downstream distance = 510 km
Downstream time = 6 hours
<h3><u>Find downstream speed:</u></h3>

Thus downstream speed is 85 km per hour
<em><u>If the speed of a boat in still water is u km/hr and the speed of the stream is v km/hr, then</u></em>
Speed downstream = u + v km/hr
Speed upstream = u - v km/hr
Therefore,
u + v = 85 ----- eqn 1
u - v = 55 ----- eqn 2
Solve both
Add them
u + v + u - v = 85 + 55
2u = 140
u = 70
<em><u>Substitute u = 70 in eqn 1</u></em>
70 + v = 85
v = 85 - 70
v = 15
Thus rate of the boat in still water is 70 km/hr and rate of the current is 15 km/hr
Answer: 0.79
Step-by-step explanation:
I will suppose that this is not a continuos probability, as the individual probabilites add up to 100%.
If you want to obtain the probability that x ≤ 0, then you need to add the probability for the cases x= 0, x = -1, x = -2 .... etc
This is:
x = 0, p = .16
x = -2, p = .33
x = -3, p = .13
x = -5, p = .17
Then, the probability where x takes a negative value or zero {-5, -3, -2, 0} is:
P = 0.16 + 0.33 + 0.13 + 0.17 = 0.79
