A Tree Cast A Shadow Of 30m Long And A 2m Stick Casts One That Is 3m Long. As Show In The Below Diagram

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

20 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We have similar triangles here.

BC║DE, AB║AD and AC║AE ⇒ ΔADE ~ ΔABC

The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles is same:

BC/DE = AC/AEBC / 2 = 30/3BC / 2 = 10BC = 2*10BC = 20 m
Answer 2

Take the similar triangles,

→ ∆ADE ≈ ∆ABC

Now we can find,

The height of the tree in meters,

→ BC/DE = AC/AE

In this equation BC is the height of tree,

→ BC/2 = 30/3

→ BC/2 = 10

→ BC = 10 × 2

→ BC = 20

Hence, the height of the tree is 20 m.

The probability that a certain hockey team will win any given game is 0.3669 based on their 13 year win history of 379 wins out of 1033 games played (as of a certain date). Their schedule for November contains 12 games. Let X = number of games won in November.

Required:
What is the expected number of wins for the month of November?

Answers

Answer:

4.4028

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of game (p) = 0.3669

Number of wins in November (n) = 12

Expected number of wins = p*n

Expected number of wins = 0.3669 * 12

Expected number of wins = 4.4028

So, the expected number of wins for the month of November is 4.4028.

what is defination of equation? And why is it called a equation.​

Answers

An equation can be defined as a mathematical statement in which two expressions are set equal to each other. In simple words, equations mean equality i.e. the equal sign. Since equations are all about “equating one quantity with another”,they are simply known as equation

Answer:

In algebra, an equation can be defined as a mathematical statement consisting of an equal symbol between two algebraic expressions that have the same value. ... For instance, 3x + 5 = 14 is an equation, in which 3x + 5 and 14 are two expressions separated by an 'equal' sign.

What are the values of x for which the denominator is equal to zero for y=(x+3)/(x^2+4x)

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -4, 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator is x^2+4x. This is zero when ...

  x^2 +4x = 0

  x(x +4) = 0

The zero product rule tells you the product is zero when the factors are zero.

  x = 0

  x +4 = 0   ⇒   x = -4

The denominator is zero for x=0 and x=-4.

would someone mind looking over my answers to geometry!!

Answers

Answer:

Question 1: x = 6

Question 2: Correct!

Question 3: x = 11

Question 4: Correct!

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:

Angle 22x - 2 DOESN'T equal 50 degrees. Only Alternate Interior Angles will equal each other. These two angles are Same Side Interior Angles, meaning if you added them together, they would equal 180 degrees.

Knowing that adding 22x - 2 and 50 will equals 180 degrees, here's how we solve for x:

First, subtract 50 from 180 to find what angle 22x - 2 will equal:

180 - 50 = 130

130 = 22x - 2

Now use basic algebra to solve for x:

130 = 22x - 2

(add 2 to both sides)

132 = 22x

(divide both sides by 22)

x = 6

Question 3:

Angle 5x + 15 DOESN'T equal 9x + 11. They make up a line, which is 180 degrees, so they are supplementary angles.

With that in mind, to solve for x, add the two equations and set it equal to 180:

5x + 15 + (9x + 11) = 180

Now use basic algebra to solve for x:

5x + 15 + 9x + 11 = 180

(add like terms)

14x + 26 = 180

(subtract 26 from both sides)

14x = 154

(divide 14 from both sides)

x = 11

Part B is not clear and the clear one is;

P(X ≥ 6)

Answer:

A) 0.238

B) 0.478

C) 0.114

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will make use of binomial probability formula;

P(X = x) = nCx × p^(x)•(1 - p) ^(n - x)

A) 54% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. Thus;

p = 0.54

10 random adults are selected. Thus;

P(X = 5) = 10C5 × 0.54^(5) × (1 - 0.54)^(10 - 5)

P(X = 5) = 0.238

B) P(X ≥ 6) = P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9) + P(10)

From online binomial probability calculator, we have;

P(X ≥ 6) = 0.2331 + 0.1564 + 0.0688 + 0.01796 + 0.0021 = 0.47836 ≈ 0.478

C) P(x<4) = P(3) + P(2) + P(1) + P(0)

Again with online binomial probability calculations, we have;

P(x<4) = 0.1141 ≈ 0.114

Land costing $140,000 was sold for $173,000 cash. The gain on the sale was reported on the income statement as other income. On the statement of cash flows, what amount should be reported as an investing activity from the sale of land?

Answers

Answer:

Amount should be reported in investing activities = $173,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of land costing = $140,000

Sold amount of land = $173,000

Find:

Amount should be reported in investing activities

Computation:

Amount should be reported in investing activities = $173,000

The cash flow statement shows how much money is coming in and going out. The whole amount of cash received, which is 173,000 dollars, will be recorded as proceeds from the sale of land in the investment activity. As a result, the right answer is 173,000.

Use the probability distribution for the random variable x to answer the question. x 0 1 2 3 4 p(x) 0.12 0.2 0.2 0.36 0.12 Calculate the population mean, variance, and standard deviation. (Round your standard deviation to three decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\mu =2.16[/tex] --- Mean

[tex]\sigma^2 = 1.4944[/tex] -- Variance

[tex]\sigma = 1.222[/tex] --- Standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} & {4} \ \\ P(x) & {0.12} & {0.2} & {0.2} & {0.36} & {0.12} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Solving (a): The population mean

This is calculated as:

[tex]\mu = \sum x * P(x)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mu =0*0.12 + 1 * 0.2 + 2 * 0.2 + 3 * 0.36 + 4 * 0.12[/tex]

[tex]\mu =2.16[/tex]

Solving (b): The population variance

First, calculate:

[tex]E(x^2)[/tex] using:

[tex]E(x^2) = \sum x^2 * P(x)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]E(x^2) = 0^2*0.12 + 1^2 * 0.2 + 2^2 * 0.2 + 3^2 * 0.36 + 4^2 * 0.12[/tex]

[tex]E(x^2) =6.160[/tex]

So, the population variance is:

[tex]\sigma^2 = E(x^2) - \mu^2[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2 = 6.16 - 2.160^2[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2 = 6.160 - 4.6656[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2 = 1.4944[/tex]

Solving (c): The population standard deviation

This is calculated as:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma^2}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{1.4944}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 1.222[/tex]

SCALCET8 3.10.025. Use a linear approximation (or differentials) to estimate the given number. (Round your answer to five decimal places.) 3 126

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(126) \approx 5.01333[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\sqrt[3]{126}[/tex]

Required

Solve using differentials

In differentiation:

[tex]f(x+\triangle x) \approx f(x) + \triangle x \cdot f'(x)[/tex]

Express 126 as 125 + 1;

i.e.

[tex]x = 125; \triangle x = 1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]f(125+1) \approx f(125) + 1 \cdot f'(125)[/tex]

[tex]f(126) \approx f(125) + 1 \cdot f'(125)[/tex]

To calculate f(125), we have:

[tex]f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x}[/tex]

[tex]f(125) = \sqrt[3]{125}[/tex]

[tex]f(125) = 5[/tex]

So:

[tex]f(126) \approx f(125) + 1 \cdot f'(125)[/tex]

[tex]f(126) \approx 5 + 1 \cdot f'(125)[/tex]

[tex]f(126) \approx 5 + f'(125)[/tex]

Also:

[tex]f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]f(x) = x^\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]f'(x) = \frac{1}{3}x^{\frac{1}{3} - 1}\\[/tex]

Using law of indices, we have:

[tex]f'(x) = \frac{x^\frac{1}{3}}{3x}[/tex]

So:

[tex]f'(125) = \frac{125^\frac{1}{3}}{3*125}[/tex]

[tex]f'(125) = \frac{5}{375}[/tex]

[tex]f'(125) = \frac{1}{75}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]f(126) \approx 5 + f'(125)[/tex]

[tex]f(126) \approx 5 + \frac{1}{75}[/tex]

[tex]f(126) \approx 5 + 0.01333[/tex]

[tex]f(126) \approx 5.01333[/tex]
