I have attached an image of the triangle.

BC = 9 cm

Answer:

CE = 7.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the attached triangle, we see that;

AB = AC = 7.5cm

BC = 9 cm

AD = 6cm

BC = 9cm

Formula for area of triangle is given as;

A = ½bh

Where b is base and h is height.

For the ∆ ABC with BC as base,

Area = ½ × 9 × 6 = 27 m²

Similarly, For ∆ ABC with AB as base,

Area = ½ × 7.5 × CE

Now, area from earlier is 27 cm²

Thus;

½ × 7.5 × CE = 27

Multiply both sides by 2 to get;

7.5CE = 54

CE = 54/7.5

CE = 7.2 cm

Archy [21]
The equation that best represents the total earnings for the salesman is letter c which is e=40,000+200 xc

It is because, in order to get the full earnings, you have to add the base salary to the commission that the salesman receives. Whereas, the $40,000 is attached to the commission where the $200 is multiplied to c (every car the salesman sells

Answer:

  D.  tan(-π/6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent function is periodic with a period of π, so ...

  tan(5π/6) = tan(5π/6 ± kπ) . . . for any integer k

For k = -1, we have ...

  tan(5π/6) = tan(5π/6 -π) = tan(-π/6)

Luke bought a jacket that was 30% off the cost. He paid sales tax of 6% after the discount had been applied. If the jacket had a
nasty-shy [4]

Answer: the actual amount that Luke paid including tax is $55.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial price of the jacket is $75.

Luke bought a jacket that was 30% off the cost. This means that the amount of discount on the Jacket is

30/100 × 75 = 0.3 × 75 = $22.5

The price of the jacket after the discount had been applied is

75 - 22.5 = $52.5

He paid sales tax of 6% after the discount had been applied. This means that the amount of sales tax that he paid on the jacket is

6/100 × 52.5 = 0.06 × 52.5 = 3.15

Therefore, the actual amount that Luke paid including tax is

52.5 + 3.15 = $55.65

On Texas Avenue between University Drive and George Bush Drive, accidents occur according to a Poisson process at a rate of thre
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

(a) The probability is 0.6514

(b) The probability is 0.7769

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of accidents occur according to a poisson process, the probability that x accidents occurs on a given day is:

P(x)=\frac{e^{-at}*(at)^{x} }{x!}

Where a is the mean number of accidents per day and t is the number of days.

So, for part (a), a is equal to 3/7 and t is equal to 1 day, because there is a rate of 3 accidents every 7 days.

Then, the probability that a given day has no accidents is calculated as:

P(x)=\frac{e^{-3/7}*(3/7)^{x}}{x!}

P(0)=\frac{e^{-3/7}*(3/7)^{0}}{0!}=0.6514

On the other hand the probability that February has at least one accident with a personal injury is calculated as:

P(x≥1)=1 - P(0)

Where P(0) is calculated as:

P(x)=\frac{e^{-at}*(at)^{x} }{x!}

Where a is equivalent to (3/7)(1/8) because that is the mean number of accidents with personal injury per day, and t is equal to 28 because 4 weeks has 28 days, so:

P(x)=\frac{e^{-(3/7)(1/8)(28)}*((3/7)(1/8)(28))^{x}}{x!}

P(0)=\frac{e^{-(3/7)(1/8)(28)}*((3/7)(1/8)(28))^{0}}{0!}=0.2231

Finally, P(x≥1) is:

P(x≥1) = 1 - 0.2231 = 0.7769
