If Sin0=3/5, then cos0=? <br> Apex

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe you meant sin Ф = 3/5, since sin 0 = 0 (zero).

sin Ф = 3/5 = (opposite side) / (hypotenuse).

cos Ф = (adjacent side) / (hypotenuse)

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the adjacent side:

(adj)² + (opp)² = (hyp)² becomes (adj)² = 5² - 3² = 25 - 9 = 16.

Then (adj) = +√16 = +4

and so cos Ф = (adj) / (hyp) = 4/5

A particular concentration of a chemical found in polluted water has been found to be lethal to 20% of the fish that are exposed

torisob [31]

Answer:

a) $P(X=14)=(20C14)(0.8)^{14} (1-0.8)^{20-14}=0.109$

b) $P(X\geq 10) = 1-P(X \leq 9) = 0.9994$

c) $P(X \leq 16)= 1-P(X>16) =1-P(X \geq 17)= 1- [P(X=17) +...+P(X=20)]=0.589$

d) $E(X)= np = 20 *0.8 = 16$

$Var(X) = np(1-p) = 20*0.8*(1-0.8) = 3.2$

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".

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

$X \sim Binom(n=20, p=1-0.2=0.8)$

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:

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

Part a

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X=14)$

And using the mass function we have this:

$P(X=14)=(20C14)(0.8)^{14} (1-0.8)^{20-14}=0.109$

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X \geq 10)$

And we can find this using the complement rule:

$P(X\geq 10) = 1-P(X$

$P(X=0)=(20C0)(0.8)^{0} (1-0.8)^{20-0}=1.05x10^{-14}$

$P(X=1)=(20C1)(0.8)^{1} (1-0.8)^{20-1}=8.39x10^{-13}$

$P(X=2)=(20C2)(0.8)^{2} (1-0.8)^{20-2}=3.19x10^{-11}$

$P(X=3)=(20C3)(0.8)^{3} (1-0.8)^{20-3}=7.65x10^{-10}$

$P(X=4)=(20C4)(0.8)^{4} (1-0.8)^{20-4}=1.30x10^{-8}$

$P(X=5)=(20C5)(0.8)^{5} (1-0.8)^{20-5}=1.66x10^{-7}$

$P(X=6)=(20C6)(0.8)^{6} (1-0.8)^{20-6}=1.66x10^{-6}$

$P(X=7)=(20C7)(0.8)^{7} (1-0.8)^{20-7}=1.33x10^{-5}$

$P(X=8)=(20C8)(0.8)^{8} (1-0.8)^{20-8}=8.65x10^{-5}$

$P(X=9)=(20C9)(0.8)^{9} (1-0.8)^{20-9}=0.00046$

And if we replace we got:

$P(X\geq 10) = 1-P(X \leq 9) = 0.9994$

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X \leq 16)$

And we can use the complement rule like this:

$P(X \leq 16)= 1-P(X>16) =1-P(X \geq 17)= 1- [P(X=17) +...+P(X=20)]$

$P(X=17)=(20C17)(0.8)^{17} (1-0.8)^{20-17}=0.205$

$P(X=18)=(20C18)(0.8)^{18} (1-0.8)^{20-18}=0.137$

$P(X=19)=(20C19)(0.8)^{19} (1-0.8)^{20-19}=0.0576$

$P(X=20)=(20C20)(0.8)^{20} (1-0.8)^{20-20}=0.0115$

And if we replace we got:

$P(X \leq 16)= 1-P(X>16) =1-P(X \geq 17)= 1- [P(X=17) +...+P(X=20)]=0.589$

Part d

The expected value is given by:

$E(X)= np = 20 *0.8 = 16$

$Var(X) = np(1-p) = 20*0.8*(1-0.8) = 3.2$

Round 399499 to the nearest thousand

Lesechka [4]

399,499.
Since we are rounding to the nearest thousand, we are going to be focusing on mainly 39(9,499). The rule I learned is, "5 or above, give it a shove". Since it isn't 500 or above, we have to round it down to 9,000.
The total is 399,000.

How many one-fourth cup servings are in 9 cups of peanuts?

musickatia [10]

So the question is "How many 1/4ths are inside 9 cups?"

We can divide 9 by 1/4:

9/1 ÷ 1/4.

Reciprocal and multiplication symbol:

9/1 * 4/1

36.

There are 36 one-fourth cups servings in 9 cups of peanuts.

The diagram shows a circle centre O work out the size of angle X work out the size of angle y

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

x = 116° , y = 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, measure of angle subtended on the center of the circle is twice the measure of angle subtended on the circumference of the circle.

$\therefore \: x = 2 \times 58 \degree \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ \therefore \: x =116 \degree}} \\ \\$

Now, by angle sum property of a quadrilateral.

$y + (360 - 116) \degree + 38 \degree + 58 \degree = 360 \degree \\ y + 244 \degree + 96 \degree = 360 \degree \\ y + 340 \degree= 360 \degree \\ y = 360 \degree - 340 \degree \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{ y = 20 \degree}}$
