Answer:
Probability that a 20- cubic foot block of wood has at most 1 knot P (X<=1) = 0.5918
Step-by-step explanation:
Average rate of knot= 1.4
Wavelength = 1.4
Geometric probability is given by:
P(X= K) = wavelength ^k × e^-wavelegth
P(X=0) = (1.4^0 × e^-1.4)/0!
P(X=0) = 1 × 0.2466 = 0.2466
P(X=1) = 1.4^1 × e^-1.4
P(X=1)= 1.4×0.2466= 0.3452
P(X<=1)= P(X=0) + P(X=1)
P(X<=1) = 0.2466 + 0.3452 = 0.5918
Answer: 9.97
==============================================
Explanation:
y = distance from the base of the pole to the closest person
y+200 = total horizontal distance
-------------
Focus on the smaller right triangle.
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(26) = 55/y
y*tan(26) = 55
y = 55/tan(26)
y = 112.76671 approximately
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
--------------
Now move to the larger right triangle
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(x) = 55/(y+200)
tan(x) = 55/(112.76671+200)
tan(x) = 55/312.76671
tan(x) = 0.17585
x = arctan(0.17585) same as
x = 9.97349
x = 9.97 degrees approximately
Answer:
B I think
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to prove this, you simply plug in the number 2 everywhere you see X:
4^(2) = 8(2).
Simplify
16 = 16 √
Since this checks out, x is proven to be 2.
