Answer:

365.73 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Angle of elevation (western high) = 41.25°

Angle of elevation (pine high) = 23.125

From the diagram attached :

Angle A = 180 - (41.25 + 13.125) = 115.625

Using the Sine rule :

a / SinA = b/SinB = c/sin C

512 / sin 115.625 = b / sin 41.25

554.68738 = b / sin 41.25

554.68738 * sin 41. 25 = b

b = 365.73 miles

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

1) is not possible

2) P(A∪B) = 0.7

3) 1- P(A∪B) =0.3

4) a) C=A∩B' and P(C)= 0.3

b)  P(D)= 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

1) since the intersection of 2 events cannot be bigger than the smaller event then is not possible that P(A∩B)=0.5 since P(B)=0.4  . Thus the maximum possible value of P(A∩B) is 0.4

2) denoting A= getting Visa card , B= getting MasterCard the probability of getting one of the types of cards is given by

P(A∪B)= P(A)+P(B) - P(A∩B) = 0.6+0.4-0.3 = 0.7

P(A∪B) = 0.7

3) the probability that a student has neither type of card is 1- P(A∪B) = 1-0.7 = 0.3

4) the event C that the selected student has a visa card but not a MasterCard is given by  C=A∩B'  , where B' is the complement of B. Then

P(C)= P(A∩B') = P(A) - P(A∩B) = 0.6 - 0.3 = 0.3

the probability for the event D=a student has exactly one of the cards is

P(D)= P(A∩B') + P(A'∩B) = P(A∪B) - P(A∩B) = 0.7 - 0.3 = 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow along:

1. Distribute the -3 to those within the parenthesis.

-3x-6=12

2. Move the whole numbers to one sides, isolate the variable.

-3x=18

3. Divide both sides by -3

x=-6
