Answer:
(A)The northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle attached represents the given problem.
First, let us determine the distance of the Boat from each of the lighthouse.
In Triangle ABC,
∠A+∠B+∠C=180 degrees
21+∠B+16=180
∠B=180-37=143 degrees.
Using Law of Sines
Similarly
Difference in Distance =35.73-27.48=8.25 miles
Therefore, the northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.
I just checked and the right answer seems to be a) 5.5, I am truly sorry if it was incorrect but pls let me know if it was the right answer
Abd is a right angled triangle so by pythagoras we know
and to calculate h we need to use the sine rule
i hope this helps
<span>Defective rate can be expected
to keep an eye on a Poisson distribution. Mean is equal to 800(0.02) = 16,
Variance is 16, and so standard deviation is 4.
X = 800(0.04) = 32, Using normal approximation of the Poisson distribution Z1 =
(32-16)/4 = 4.
P(greater than 4%) = P(Z>4) = 1 – 0.999968 = 0.000032, which implies that
having such a defective rate is extremely unlikely.</span>
<span>If the defective rate in the
random sample is 4 percent then it is very likely that the assembly line
produces more than 2% defective rate now.</span>
