The top of the Boulder Dam has an angle of elevation of 1.2 radians from a point on the Colorado River. Measuring the angle of elevation to the top of the dam from a point 155 feet farther down river is 0.9 radi- ans; assume the two angle measurements are taken at the same elevation above sea level. How high is the dam?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

382.925 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution diagram is attached below :

Converting radian measurement to degree :

radian angle * 180/π = degree angle

1.2 * 180/π = 68.755°

0.9 * 180/π = 51.566°

Height of dam is h:

Using trigonometry :

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent

Tan 68.755° = h / x

h = x Tan 68.755° - - - (1)

Tan 51.566° = h / (155+x)

h = (155+x) tan 51.566° - - - (2)

Equate (1) and (2)

x Tan 68.755 = (155+x) Tan 51.566

x Tan 68.755 = 155tan 51.566 + x tan 51.566

x Tan 68.755 = 195.32311 + x Tan 51.566

x Tan 68.755 - x Tan 51.566 = 195.32311

x(tan 68.755 - tan 51.566) = 195.32311

x * 1.3120110 = 195.32311

1.3120110x = 195.32311

x = 195.32311 / 1.3120110

x = 148.87307

Using :

h = x Tan 68.755

h = 148.87307 * tan(68.755)

h = 382.92539

h = 382.925 feets

HELP PLEASE! What is BD??

Answers

Answer:

[tex]BD=13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that Ray AC bisects ∠A. Therefore, we can use the Angle Bisector Theorem shown below.

Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{27}{x+5}=\frac{12}{x}[/tex]

Solve for x. Cross-multiply:

[tex]12(x+5)=27(x)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]12x+60=27x[/tex]

Subtract 12x from both sides:

[tex]15x=60[/tex]

Divide both sides by 15. Thus:

[tex]x=4[/tex]

BD is the sum of BC and CD:

[tex]BD=BC+CD[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]BD=x+(x+5)[/tex]

Substitute and evaluate:

[tex]BD=(4)+(4+5)=13[/tex]

Therefore, BD is 13.

Five cards are drawn randomly from a standard deck of 52 cards
Determine the probability that exactly 3 of these cards are Aces. Write your answer in decimal form, rounded to 5 decimal
places
Answer

Answers

Answer:

there are 4 aces in the deck of 52 cards

so the probability to draw one ace is 4/52

if we draw an ace, there are 3 left in 51 cards.

so the next probability will be 3/51

we need to multiply probabilities to know how likely it is that this happens in a row.

for three in a row that's

[tex] \frac{4}{52} \times \frac{3}{51} \times \frac{2}{50} [/tex]

rewritten its:

[tex] \frac{4 \times 3 \times 2}{52 \times 51 \times 50} [/tex]

we'll see soon why this is easier to write.

we also have to account for the two cards that are no aces. it doesn't matter if the first two cards are no aces, the last two, or any rodney. just the ammount of non-aces is important.

there are 48 non-aces in the deck.

so the probability to draw one of them in the first step is 48/52.

wich each draw the number of cards left in the deck decreases by 1. and depending what we draw, that ammount also decreases.

we draw 5 cards, so we know what the denominators will be. the numerator will be the rest-ammounts of each event, like shown in the complicated fraction above.

let's write it most easily as this:

[tex] \frac{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 48 \times 47}{52 \times 51 \times 50 \times 49 \times 48} [/tex]

this scenario looks like it only describes 3 aces, then two non-aces, but the order of multiplication isn't important. you could put the 48 and 47 to the left, same solution. so this expression represents all permutations of "3 aces when drawing 5 cards", including the two cards that are not aces.

that's why writing it as one convoluted fraction is indeed better and simpler than many fraction multiplied in row.

time to grap a calculator.

our probability for the event is

54144 possible valid outcomes out of

311875200 possible combinations.

luckily the calculator can reduce that to a simpler form of

[tex] \frac{47}{270725} [/tex]

(reduced with 2^6*3^, big number, but tried it out by hand stacking up prime factors until hittinga prime in the numerator)

written as a readable kind of number you probably know and like it's

0.0001736079047

in decimal form. now rounded as asked for:

0.00017

A random sample of 21 desktop PCs is selected. The mean life span is 6.8 years with a standard deviation of 2.4 years. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean life span of all desktop PCs. Assume that the life spans of all desktop PCs are approximately normally distributed (a) (5.85, 7.75) (b) (1.68, 3.12) (c) (5.60, 8.00) (d) (5.71, 7.89) (e) (5.77, 7.83)

Answers

Answer:

(d) (5.71, 7.89)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 21 - 1 = 20

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 20 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.086

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.086\frac{2.4}{\sqrt{21}} = 1.09[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 6.8 - 1.09 = 5.71 years

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 6.8 + 1.09 = 7.89 years

So the confidence interval is (5.71, 7.89), and the correct answer is given by option b.

A polynomial function is shown below:

f(x) = x3 − 3x2 − 4x + 12

Which graph best represents the function? (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

Graph A (first graph from top to bottom)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given [tex]f(x)=x^3-3x^2-4x+12[/tex], since the degree of the polynomial is 3, the function must be odd and will resemble the shown shape in the graphs. The degree of 3 indicates that there are 3 zeroes, whether distinct or non-distinct. Therefore, the graph must intersect the x-axis at these three points.

Factoring the polynomial:

[tex]f(x)=x^3-3x^2-4x+12,\\f(x)=(x+2)(x-2)(x-3),\\\begin{cases}x+2=0, x=-2\\x-2=0, x=2\\x-3=, x=3\end{cases}[/tex]

Thus, the three zeroes of this function are [tex]x=-2, x=2, x=3[/tex] and the graph must intersection the x-axis at these points. The y-intercept of any graph occurs when [tex]x=0[/tex]. Thus, the y-coordinate of the y-intercept is equal to [tex]y=0^3-3(0^2)-4(0)+12,\\y=12[/tex] and the y-intercept is (0, 12).

The graph that corresponds with this is graph A.

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pizza topped with pepperoni, sausage or pepperoni and sausage = 33

Number of pizzas with pepperoni = 29

Number of pizzas with pepperoni and sausage = 15

Pizza with pepperoni only = 29 - 15 = 14

Pizza with sausage only = 33 - 29 = 4

Pepperoni only than sausage only :

using middle term break method

6x^2 + (12 - 6)x - 12 = 0

6x^2 + 12x - 6x - 12 = 0

6x(x + 2) - 6(x + 2) = 0

(x + 2)(6x - 6) = 0

either (x + 2) = 0                             OR (6x - 6) = 0

x + 2 = 0

x = 0 -2

b, Calculate the probability that in 6 consecutive months there is only one month that no customer in this area has a network problem that needs the help of technical staff​

Answers

Answer:

(a) average calls = 5  

(b) probability that there is exactly one call in 6 consecutive monts = 0.038

Step-by-step explanation:

Let event of a customer requiring help in a particular month = H

and event of a customer not requiring help in a particular month = ~H

Given

p= 0.01,  therefore

Number of households, n = 500.

Binomial distribution:

x = number of households requiring help in a particular month

P(x,n,p) = C(x,n)*p^x*(1-p)^(n-x)

where

C(x,n) = n!/(x!(n-x)!) is the the number of combinations of x objects out of n

(a) Average number of households requiring help = np = 500*0.01 = 5

(b)

Probability that there are no calls requiring help in a particular month

P(0), q= C(0,n)*p^0(1-p)^(n-0)

= 1*1*0.99^500

= 0.006570483

Applying binomial probability over six months,

q = 0.006570483

n = 6

x = 1

P(x,n,q)

= C(x,n)*q^x*(1-q)^(n-x)

= 6!/(1!*5!) * 0.006570483^1 * (1-0.006570483)^5

= 0.038145

Therefore the probability that in 6 consecutive months there is exactly one month that no customer has called for help = 0.038
