The standard deviatiion is the square root of the variance.
If you meant to write this;Nisha and Marcie Drive 20 miles from their sisters to hoodoo to go skiing. The speed limit is 55 miles per hour. It snowed all night, and the safe speed to drive is 40 miles per hour. Explain how you can determine how many more minutes it takes to drive 20 miles at 40 miles per hour in a 55 miles per hour zone.
If you drive 20 miles at 40 mile per hour, then 20 miles divided by 40 miles equals .5.5 times 60 minutes (one hour) is 30 minutesIf you drive 20 miles at 55 mile per hour, then 20 miles divided by 55 miles equals .3636.3636 time 60 minutes (one hour) is 21.8 minutes30 minutes at 40 mph minus 21.8 minutes at 55 mph is 8.2 minutes faster
Answer:
8.4 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
- We consider the large right angle triangle namely, " XVW "
- We will recall all the trigonometric ratios that are applicable to all right angled triangles.
- While we are dealing with trigonometric ratios we have the following terms that needs to be correlated with the given specific problem:
Hypotenuse ( H ): Side opposite to 90 degrees angle
Base (B): The side adjacent to the available angle ( θ )
Perpendicular (P): The side opposite to the available angle ( θ )
- We will go ahead and mark our respective sides as follows:
Angle ( θ ) : 34°
Hypotenuse ( H ) : XW = 15 in
Base ( B ) : VW
Perpendicular ( P ) : VX
- Now recall all the trigonometric ratios studied:
sin ( θ ) = P / H = VX / XW
cos ( θ ) = B / H = VW / XW
tan ( θ ) = P / B = VX / VW
- Now choose the appropriate trigonometric ratio with two values given and one ( VX ) that needs to be determined as follows:
sin ( θ ) = P / H = VX / XW
sin ( 34° ) = VX / 15
VX = 15*sin ( 34° )
VX = 8.387 .. ( 8.4 ) in
