A guard in a 20m tall watchtower spots a vehicle at an angle of depression oi 25
How far horizontally from the tower is the vehicle, to one decimal place? (​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Solution given:

height[p]=20m

angle of depression [a]=25°

base[b]=?

we have

Tan a=p/b

tan 25=20/b

b=20/tan25

b=42.89 or 43

the tower is 43m far from the vehicle .

Answer: 3 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the information that Ms. Wilson walked ¾miles each day. To calculate the total distance that Ms. Wilson will walk for 4 days, we have to multiply the distance walked each day by 4.

This will be:

= ¾miles × 4

= 3 miles

Therefore, Wilson walked a distance of 3 miles for the 4 days.

9. A shipping box is shaped like a rectangular prism. The dimensions of the box are in inches, as shown below.

Which expression describes the volume, in cubic inches, of the box?
A. 2w3 + 9w + 20
B. 243 + 182 + 402
C. 2u2 + 18w + 40
D. 2w2 + 4w+5

Answers

Given:

The dimensions of the box are (w+5) inches, (w+4) inches, (2w) inches.

To find:

The expression that describes the volume of the box.

Solution:

We know that the volume of a rectangular prism is:

[tex]V=length\times breadth \times height[/tex]

Substituting the given values, we get

[tex]V=(w+5)\times (w+4) \times 2w[/tex]

[tex]V=(w^2+5w+4w+20)2w[/tex]

[tex]V=(w^2+9w+20)2w[/tex]

Using distribution property, we get

[tex]V=(w^2)2w+(9w)2w+(20)2w[/tex]

[tex]V=2w^3+18w^2+40w[/tex]

Therefore, the volume of the box is [tex]2w^3+18w^2+40w[/tex] cubic inches.

Note: All the options are incorrect.

Answers

Answer:

307°

Step-by-step explanation:

CF is a diameter of the circle. so, any arc connecting C and F has an arc angle of 180° (half-circle).

so, we need to add the arc angle FD.

we know the arc angle ED = 79°.

so, what is left to add is the arc angle FE.

the arc angle FE is the same as BC.

and the arc angle BC is the supplementary angle (means together they have 180°) to 132° :

BC = 180 - 132 = 48°

therefore,

the arc angle CFD = 180 + 48 + 79 = 307°

Mitch jarred 12 liters of jam 2 days. How many days does Mitch need to spend making jam if he want to jar 18 jam in all

Answers

Answer:

3 days

Step-by-step explanation:

well, in 2 days mitch can jar 12 liters of jam right? but 12 is divisible by 2. so let’s just do that to help us out later, 12 / 2 = 6

now that we have that, let’s make sure. in 1 day he can jar 6, in 2 he can jar 12.

that seems right! so now, can we add 6 to 12 to make 18? yep! how many more times do we need to add 6? 1 time. so 12 + 6 = 18. every 6 liters is 1 day. so 1 day + 1 day + 1 day (18 liters) is 3 days total!

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is given as:

A = ½*base*height

A = ½*b*h

A = (bh)2

If we know the area (A) and the base, to find the height, the following would be done:

Divide both sides by b

A/b = h/2

Multiply both sides by 2

[tex] \frac{A}{b} * 2 = h [/tex]

As we can see here, to find the base, we would divide the area by the vase, then multiply what we get by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mean [tex]\=x =12cm[/tex]

Standard deviation [tex]\sigma=0.04[/tex]

Significance level [tex]\alpha=5\%=0.05[/tex]

Therefore

Confidence level [tex]95\%=0.95[/tex]

From table [tex]P(z<1.645)=0.95[/tex]

Generally the equation for Z-score is mathematically given by

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]x=z\sigma+\mu[/tex]

[tex]x=1.645*0.04+12[/tex]

A school has found from past records that the average scores for boys is 75 in a sample of 45 boys, and the average scores for girls is 85 in a sample of 30 girls. The population standard deviations for boys' and girls' scores were 25 and 17, respectively. The 90% confidence interval for the difference of the population means is approximately (_____, −2.022). Assume that the distributions of the scores of men and women are normally distributed. Round your answer to two decimal places.



Confidence Level Corresponding zc Value
90% confidence zc=1.645
95% confidence zc=1.96
99% confidence zc=2.576

Answers

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the difference of the population means is approximately (-17.98, -2.02).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Boys:

Mean of 75, sample of 45, standard deviation of 25.

This means that [tex]\mu_B = 75, s_B = \frac{25}{\sqrt{45}}[/tex]

Girls:

Mean of 85, sample of 30, standard deviation of 17.

This means that [tex]\mu_G = 85, s_G = \frac{17}{\sqrt{30}}[/tex]

Distribution of the difference of mean grades of boys and girls:

[tex]\mu = \mu_B - \mu_G = 75 - 85 = -10[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_B^2+s_G^2} = \sqrt{(\frac{25}{\sqrt{45}})^2+(\frac{17}{\sqrt{30}})^2} = 4.85[/tex]

Confidence interval:

As stated, the critical value is [tex]z = 1.645[/tex]

The margin of error is of:

[tex]M = zs = 1.645*4.85 = 7.98[/tex]

Lower bound:

[tex]\mu - M = -10 - 7.98 = -17.98[/tex]

Upper bound:

[tex]\mu + M = -10 + 7.98 = -2.02[/tex]

The 90% confidence interval for the difference of the population means is approximately (-17.98, -2.02).
