Explanation:
With many trig problems, a diagram should help steer you in the right direction. See below.
The red angle is the angle of depression. It's formed by starting off looking straight horizontal, then we look down 26 degrees. The blue angle adds to the red angle to get 90, so we can see that 26+64 = 90. Or you could say 90-26 = 64.
The goal is to find the value of x, which is the length from B (the lighthouse base) to point C (the ship's location).
The lighthouse is 250 ft tall, meaning AB = 250
We'll use angle BAC, or angle A for short, as the reference angle. This is the blue angle in the diagram.
We have a known adjacent side (AB = 250) and an unknown opposite side (BC = x). We use a tangent ratio to tie these sides together with the reference angle in question. This way we can solve for x.
-------------------
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(A) = BC/AB
tan(64) = x/250
250*tan(64) = x
x = 250*tan(64)
x = 512.575960394824
x = 513
The distance from B to C is roughly 513 feet.
I'm rounding to the nearest whole number because the other values given to you are whole numbers.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The pdf of the number of cheesecakes that they sell in a given day: by a bakery are as follows:
X 0 5 10 15 20
P 0.25 0.47 0.12 k 0.15
Use total prob =1, to find k .
k = 0.01
a) the probability of selling 15 cheesecakes in a given day = 0.01
b. What is the probability of selling at least 10 cheesecakes =P(X≥10)
= 0.28
c. the probability of selling 5 or 15 chassescakes P(5)++P(15)=0.48
d. the probaility of selling 25 cheesecakes = 0
e. Give the expected number of cheesecakes sold in a day using the discrete probability distribution?
=
f. the probability of selling at most 10 cheesecakes
=P(X≤10)
= 0.84
