Answer:

70.9 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

From trigonometry:

tan θ = opposite /Adjacent

Opposite = tree height, y

Adjacent = vertical distance between eyelevel and tree

tan 33º = y/100

y = 100 * tan 33º

y = 100 * 0.6494075

y = 64.9 feets

Distance between John's eye level and the ground = 6 feets

Total tree height = 6 + 64.9 = 70.9 feets

(2) So we know Ethan uses 1/4 cup of milk for his cake. And if he needs to make 3 times the amount of 1 cake, he'll make 3 cakes today. So we multiply the amount of cakes (3) by the amount of milk needed (1/4)

3 * 1/4 = 3/4

Ethan will need 3/4 cups of milk.

(3) We know Isabella need's 2/5 of a gallon of the food to make 1 gallon.

She want's to make 5 gallons, so like the other problem, we multiply the amount of gallons (5) by the amount of food needed (2/5):

5 * 2/5 = 10/5 = 2/1.

Isabella will need 2 gallons of food.

Please help!!<br> If N is parallel to M, find the value of x and the value of z.
Butoxors [25]
Looking at the figure, we can see that both triangles are right triangles. Therefore, we can apply pythagorean theorems. A right triangle contains a hypotenuse, which is the longest side. In the figure, that would be sides with length 4 and 12. The equation for this is:

c = √(^2 + b^2) , where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the other shorter sides

To determine z:
4 = √(z^2 + 3^2)
z = 2.65

To determine x:
12 = √(x^2 + 6^2)
x = 10.39

Find the equation of the line passing through the point (2,−4) that is parallel to the line y=3x+2
Naily [24]

Hey there! :)

Line passes through (2, -4) & parallel to y = 3x+ 2

Let's start off by identifying what our slope is. In the slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we know that "m" is our slope. "M" is simply a place mat so if we look at our given line, the "m" value is 3. Therefore, our slope is 3.

We should also note that we're looking for a line that's parallel to the given one. This means that our new line has the same slope as our given line. Therefore, our slope for our new line will be 3.

Now, we use point-slope form ( y-y₁=m(x-x₁) ) to complete our task of finding a line that passes through (2, -4) with a slope of 3.

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

Let's start by plugging in 3 for m (our slope), 2 for x1 and -4 for y1.

y - (-4) = 3(x - 2)

Simplify.

y + 4 = 3x - 6

Simplify by subtracting 4 from both sides.

y = 3x - 10

~Hope I helped!~

Suppose GRE Quantitative scores are normally distributed with a mean of 587587 and a standard deviation of 152152. A university
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The minimum score required for the job offer is 751.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 587, \sigma = 152

What is the minimum score required for the job offer?

Top 14%, so the minimum score is the 100-14 = 86th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.86. So X when Z = 1.08.

Then

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.08 = \frac{X - 587}{152}

X - 587 = 1.08*152

X = 751.16

Rounding to the nearest whole number:

The minimum score required for the job offer is 751.
