Answer:

The value of x = 35.62

Therefore, option C) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ф = 58°

hypotenuse = 42

To determine:

x = ?

We know that the trigonometric ratio

sin Ф = opposite / hypotenuse

Here:

The opposite of Ф = x

Ф = 58°

hypotenuse = 42

so substituting the value

sin Ф = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 58° = x / 42

x = 42 × sin 58°

= 35.62

Thus, the value of x = 35.62

Therefore, option C) is true.

The number of people arriving at a ballpark is random, with a Poisson distributed arrival. If the mean number of arrivals is 10,

Answer:

a) 3.47% probability that there will be exactly 15 arrivals.

b) 58.31% probability that there are no more than 10 arrivals.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given time interval.

If the mean number of arrivals is 10

This means that $\mu = 10$

(a) that there will be exactly 15 arrivals?

This is P(X = 15). So

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 15) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{15}}{(15)!} = 0.0347$

3.47% probability that there will be exactly 15 arrivals.

(b) no more than 10 arrivals?

This is $P(X \leq 10)$

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)$

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.000045$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00045$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0023$

$P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.0076$

$P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.0189$

$P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.0378$

$P(X = 6) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{6}}{(6)!} = 0.0631$

$P(X = 7) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{7}}{(7)!} = 0.0901$

$P(X = 8) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{8}}{(8)!} = 0.1126$

$P(X = 9) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{9}}{(9)!} = 0.1251$

$P(X = 10) = \frac{e^{-10}*(10)^{10}}{(10)!} = 0.1251$

$P(X \leq 10) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.000045 + 0.00045 + 0.0023 + 0.0076 + 0.0189 + 0.0378 + 0.0631 + 0.0901 + 0.1126 + 0.1251 + 0.1251 = 0.5831$

58.31% probability that there are no more than 10 arrivals.

4a/3-b/4=6<br> 5a/6+b=13<br> Solve linear system by elimination

kondor19780726 [428]

$\bf \cfrac{4a}{3}-\cfrac{b}{4}=6
\qquad \qquad 
\cfrac{5a}{6}+b=13
\\\\\\
\textit{let us remove the denominators off those folks}\\
\textit{by multiplying the first one by 12, both sides}\\
\textit{and the second one by 6, both sides, thus}
\\\\\\
12\left( \cfrac{4a}{3}-\cfrac{b}{4} \right)=12(6)\implies 16a-4b=72
\\\\\\
6\left( \cfrac{5a}{6}+b \right)=6(13)\implies 5a+6b=78$

$\bf \textit{now, let's do the elimination}
\\\\

\begin{array}{llll}
16a-4b=72&\boxed{\times 3}\implies &48a-\underline{12b}=216\\\\
5a+6b=78&\boxed{\times 2}\implies &10a+\underline{12b}=156\\
&&--------\\
&&58a+0\quad=372
\end{array}$

solve for "a", once you get "a", plug it back into either equation to get "b"
