Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown in the figure below.

Let h the height of the hill. =

At position A, the angle of elevation is 40°, and the horizontal distance to the foot of the hill is x.

By definition,

tan(40°) = h/x h = x tan40 = 0.8391x

(1)

At position B, Joe is (x - 450) ft from the foot of the hill. His angle of elevation is

40 + 18 = 58°.

By definition, tan(58°) = h/(x - 450)

h = (x - 450) tan(58°) = 1.6003(x-450)

h = 1.6003x - 720.135 (2)

Equate (1) and (2).

1.6003x - 720.135 = 0.8391x 0.7612x = 720.135

x = 946.0523

From (1), obtain

h = 0.8391*946.0523 = 793.8 ft

Answer: The height of the hill is approximately 794 ft (nearest integer)

Certain circle can be represented by the following equation.
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Center of the circle is (-9, -7)

Radius of the circle = 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question is incomplete: here is the complete question.

Certain circle can be represented by the following equation. x^2+y^2+18x+14y+105=0.

What is the center of this circle ?

What is the radius of this circle ?

Since equation of the circle has been given by the equation,

x² + y² + 18x + 14y + 105 = 0

Now we will convert this equation to the standard form of the circle.

x² + 18x + y² + 14y = -105

[x² + 2(9)x] + [y² + 2(7)x] = -105

[x² + 2(9)x + 9²] + [y² + 2(7)y + 7²] = 9² + 7² - 105

(x + 9)² + (y + 7)² = 81 + 49 - 105

(x + 9)² + (y + 7)² = 25

(x + 9)² + (y + 7)² = 5²

By comparing this equation with the standard equation of the circle → (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Center of the circle is (-9, -7) and radius of the circle is 5 units.

Which of the following is not a step in the procedure for​ two-way ANOVA to test for an interaction​ effect, an effect from the
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

D. If the​ P-value is​ large, reject the null hypothesis of no interaction. Conclude that there is an interaction effect.

Step-by-step explanation:

If p value is smaller than significant level(5% or 1%), then reject the null hypothesis.

From the given information about two way ANOVA, First 3 are true statements based on decision rule.

4th statement is false, becasue p value is larger, then decision is to fail the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no interaction between them
