Answer:

The angle of depression calculator. How to find the angle of depression?

Since we now know what the angle of depression is, let's learn how to find it! We can determine the angle of depression using surveying equipment like an engineer's transit or a clinometer. These devices are optical instruments that have angle-measurement features and can instantly give us the angle that we need. However, we can also use mathematics to find the angle of depression. But first, we need to know two distances: the horizontal distance between the viewer and the object, and their vertical distance, as shown in the illustration below:

Write an augmented matrix for the following system of equations
chubhunter [2.5K]
Just use the coefficients for each variable and put it in a matrix. Is the second question set equal to something? Because then you would put it in place as the question mark. (Did the pic come through?)
So the 3x3 matrix is made up of the coefficients and then to augment the matrix, you add another column at the end with the solutions. Good luck!

Find the 8th term of the geometric sequence whose common ratio is 2/3 and whose first term is 6.
suter [353]

8th term = 256/729

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio = a2/a1

2/3 = a2/6        a 2=2/3*6 =12/3 =4      a2=4

1)    6* 2/3=4

2)     4*2/3=8/3

3)   8/3*2/3 = 16/9.......

The gallup poll interviews 1600 people. of these, 18% say that they jog regularly. the news report adds: "the poll had a margin
Kryger [21]
The correct is b.

This is because, confidence interval is given by:
Confidence interval = p +/- error
In this case,
p = 18%
error = 3%

Therefore;
Confidence interval = 18+/-3 = [(18-3),(18+3)] = [15,21].
Therefore it will be true to say that the percentage of those who jog is between 15% and 21%.
