What is the angle measure of 2x+1°

Answer:

25 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Haha, awesome! Just did a problem like this!

All angles add up to 180, so set it up like this:

2x + 1 + 5x + 5 + 90 = 18

Combine like terms.

7x + 96 = 180

7x = 84

x = 12

Plug x back into 2x + 1

2(12) + 1

24 + 1

= 25 degrees

While we're at it...

5(12) + 5

60 + 5

= 65 degrees (for the other angle)

25 + 65 + 90 = 180

Math checks out & we're good to go!

Hope this helped. :) <3

You have $11 and earn $0.50 for each cup of orange juice you sell. Write an equation in two variables that represents the total

nikitadnepr [17]

Your answer would be A= $11+ j x (.50)
A= total which is based off of how many cups (j) you sell of OJ... plus the $11 you started with.

Suppose that the probability that a person is killed by lightning, in a year is, independently of other people, 1/(500 million).

Katen [24]

Answer:

a) $P(X \geq 3) = 1- P(X$

The individual pprobabilities are:

$P(X=0)=(300000000C0)(\frac{1}{500000000})^3 (1-\frac{1}{500000000})^{300000000-0}=0.548812$

$P(X=1)=(300000000C0)(\frac{1}{500000000})^3 (1-\frac{1}{500000000})^{300000000-0}=0.329287$

$P(X=2)=(300000000C0)(\frac{1}{500000000})^3 (1-\frac{1}{500000000})^{300000000-0}=0.098786$

And if we replace we got:

$P(X \geq 3) = 1- [0.548812+0.329287+0.098786]=0.023115$

b) $P(X \geq 3) = 1- P(X$

And we can calculate this with the following excel formula:

$=1-BINOM.DIST(2;300000000;(1/500000000);TRUE)$

And we got:

$P(X\geq 3) = 0.023115$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=300000000, p=\frac{1}{500000000})$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

(a) Write down the exact expression for the probability P(3 or more people will be killed by lightning in the U.S. next year). Evaluate this expression to 6 decimal places.

For this case we want this probability, we are going to use the complement rule:

$P(X \geq 3) = 1- P(X$

The individual probabilities are:

$P(X=0)=(300000000C0)(\frac{1}{500000000})^3 (1-\frac{1}{500000000})^{300000000-0}=0.548812$

$P(X=1)=(300000000C0)(\frac{1}{500000000})^3 (1-\frac{1}{500000000})^{300000000-0}=0.329287$

$P(X=2)=(300000000C0)(\frac{1}{500000000})^3 (1-\frac{1}{500000000})^{300000000-0}=0.098786$

And if we replace we got:

$P(X \geq 3) = 1- [0.548812+0.329287+0.098786]=0.023115$

(b) Write down a relevant approximate expression for the probability from (a). Justify briefly the approximation. Evaluate this expression to 6 decimal places.

For this case we want this probability, we are going to use the complement rule:

$P(X \geq 3) = 1- P(X$

And we can calculate this with the following excel formula:

$=1-BINOM.DIST(2;300000000;(1/500000000);TRUE)$

And we got:

$P(X\geq 3) = 0.023115$

The flagpole in front of CB East casts a shadow 40 feet long when the measurement of the angle of elevation to the sun is 31˚. H

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer: The length of flagpole is 24 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of shadow =40 feet

Angle of elevation to the sun = $31\textdegree$

In ΔABC,

We can apply "trigonometric rules ",

$\tan\theta=\frac{AB}{BC}\\\\\tan31\textdegree=\frac{AB}{40}\\\\0.6\times 40=AB\\\\24\ feet=AB$

Hence, the length of flagpole is 24 feet.
