Answer:

16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by converting 1yd to ft,

1yd = 3ft

So in the smaller triangle, we have 3ft, 4.5ft. Using Sine, Cos, and Tan rule. We know that

TanΦ = opposite / adjacent

TanΦ = 3ft / 4.5ft

TanΦ = 0.667

Φ = Tan^-1 0.6

Φ = 33.69

This means that the angle of elevation is 33.69°

Using this angle, and the same tan rule again, we gave

Tan 33.69 = opp/24

0.667 = opp/24

opp = 24 * 0.667

opp = 16 ft

A fair coin is flipped three times. Events A and B are defined as: A: there are at least two consecutive heads somewhere in the

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

2 / 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Coin flipped 3 times has following outcomes, of heads 'H' & Tails 'T'

HHH , TTT , HTT, THT , TTH , THH , HTH , HHT = total outcomes

P (A) = 2 consecutive heads , P (B) = atleast one tail

P (A) = 2 outcomes ( HHH , HHT , THH ) / total 8 outcomes = 3 / 8

P (B) = 7 outcomes (all except HHH) / total 8 outcomes = 7 / 8

P (A | B) = P ( A ∩ B ) / P (B)

P ( A ∩ B ) = P ( 2 consecutive heads & atleast one tail) / Total outcomes = 2 outcomes ( HHT , THH ) / total 8 outcomes = 2 / 8

So, P (A | B) = ( 2 / 8 ) / ( 7 / 8 ) = 2 / 7

Any nonzero integer divided by 0 equals 0. True or false? Justify your answer.

Vanyuwa [196]

It is false. Although integers above 0 divided by 0 is 0, negative numbers can also be integers (-1,-3,-10, etc.), and when they are divided by zero, they are undefined. That means that it is not really a number.

How do you simplify this

kramer

Answer:

multiply the bottom and the top by route 2 minus route 3

this gives 4 route 2 minus route 18 over minus 1

this gives minus 4 route 2 add route 18

route 18 simplifies to 3 route 2

minus 4 route 2 add 3 route 2 gives minus route 2 as the answer
