Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

x = k√y

Increase y by 44%. y becomes 1.44y.

x = k√(1.44y)

x = 1.2k√y

x went from k√y to 1.2k√y.

(1.2k√y)/(k√y) = 1.2

x is now 1.2 times greater than it was, so the increase in x is 20%.

Answer: 20%

Solve the equation a=m-n for the variable n

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

m-a = n

Step-by-step explanation:

a=m-n

Subtract m from each side

a-m = m-n-m

a-m = -n

Multiply each side by -1

-a+m = n

m-a = n

A waether forecast predicts a 30% chance of rain for each of the next 3 days. Describe a way to stimulate the chance that it wil

DerKrebs [107]

Using a binomial distribution considering there's a 30% chance it will rain on any of the three days:

<span>The probability of it raining on 0 days is (1)(0.7)(0.7)(0.7) = 34.3%. </span>
<span>The probability of it raining on 1 day is (3)(0.3)(0.7)(0.7) = 44.1%. </span>
<span>The probability of it raining on 2 days is (3)(0.3)(0.3)(0.7) = 18.9%. </span>
<span>The probability of it raining on 3 days is (1)(0.3)(0.3)(0.3) = 2.7%. </span>

<span>There's a 65.7% chance that it will rain at least once over the three-day period.</span>

A camper wants to know the width of a river. From point A, he walks downstream 60 feet to point B and sights a canoe across the

Anarel [89]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The correct option is:

D. 40 feet.

To solve the problem and calculate the width of the river, we need to assume that the distance from A to B and the angle formed between that distance and the distance from A to the other point (C) is equal to 90°, meaning that we are working with a right triangle, also, we need to use the given angle which is equal to 34°. So, to solve the problem we can use the following trigonometric relation:

$Tan\alpha =\frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}$
