Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The way this is worded, it sounds like it is a horizontal distance. However by the marking it looks like they want the hypotenuse. Life can be very confusing sometimes.

The angle of the triangle that you need to know is the one on the right. The line of sight line is parallel to the base of the triangle. So the angle on the right is 8 degrees by the Z theorem.

Solution

Sin(8) = 1817 / x           Multiply both sides by x

x*sin(8) = 1817             Divide by sin(8)

x = 1817/sin(8)

sin(8) = 0.1392

x = 1817/0.1392

x = 13055.7

Note

Watch how you do this. I would put it into your calculator as

1817

÷

sin(8)

=

If you use the rounded answer I gave for sin(8), you might get it wrong. This is a big distance and you should just use the exact number you get for sin(8).

Help and explanation with this probability question would be really appreciated :)
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability (PB) is .4 or 4/10 or 2/5.

So, we'd do a proportion.

2/5=x/6

Cross multiply.

5x=12

Divide by sides by 5.

x=2.4

We round up to account for the .4

so b

I can't answer c right now, but I'll come back once my class is over :)

Multiple 1.229 by 15 and round to the nearest cent
podryga [215]
When you multipy 1.229 x 15 your answer is 18.435. Rounding to the nearest cent will only include 2 numbers after the decimal. Looking at 18.435, the last number, 5 will round your answer to 18.44
