While sailing, Jacob is 150 feet from a lighthouse. The angle of elevation from his feet on the boat (at sea level) to the top of the lighthouse is 48°

What can you conclude about the height of the lighthouse, with respect to Jacob's distance from the lighthouse? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the lighthouse be represented by s, then;

Tan 48° = (opposite) ÷ (adjacent)

Tan 48° = s ÷ 150

⇒ s = 150 × Tan 48°

      = 150 × 1.1106

     = 166.59

s ≅ 166.6 feet

Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.

Answer 2

Answer:

The height of the lighthouse is approximately 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation forms a right triangle so the angles would be 90 and 48

90+48+x=180

138+x=180

x=180-138

x=42

Open up the parentheses

[tex]x - 4 - x - 7 = 8x[/tex]

[tex]x -x - 4 - 7 = 8x\\-4-7=8x\\-11=8x[/tex]

Which of the following could be the value of xy if y = 7and x>7?

Answers

Answer:

Any number greater than 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 7>0 then multiplying both sides of x>7 by 7 will not effect the direction of the inequality.

If x>7, then 7x>7(7) or 7x>49 after simplifying.

Substituting y for 7 since y=7 gives yx>49.

By commutative property of multiplication we have xy>49.

So any number greater than 49.

At a certain auto parts manufacturer, the Quality Control division has determined that one of the machines produces defective parts 18% of the time. A random sample of 7 parts produced by this machine is chosen. Find the probability that more than 1 of these parts are defective.

Answers

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that:

0.3677 = 36.77% probability that more than 1 of these parts are defective.

-----------------

For each part, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are defective, or they are not. The probability of a part being defective is independent of any other part, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of a success.

At a certain auto parts manufacturer, the Quality Control division has determined that one of the machines produces defective parts 18% of the time.

This means that [tex]p = 0.18[/tex]

A random sample of 7 parts produced by this machine is chosen.

This means that [tex]n = 7[/tex]

Find the probability that more than 1 of these parts are defective.

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X < 1)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X < 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

Thus

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{7,0}.(0.18)^{0}.(0.82)^{7} = 0.2493[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{7,1}.(0.18)^{1}.(0.82)^{6} = 0.3830[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X < 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.2493 + 0.3830 = 0.6323[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X < 1) = 1 - 0.6323 = 0.3677[/tex]

0.3677 = 36.77% probability that more than 1 of these parts are defective.

If the lengths of the legs of a right triangle are 4 and 8, what is the length of the hypotenuse?

Answers

Answer:

8.94~9.0

Step-by-step explanation:

If A squared plus B squared equals C squared. Then you can used this formula and find that 4 squared plus 8 squared equals 80. then square root 80 to find 8.94 or rounded to 9. This would equal C or the hypotenuse. Hope this helps!

The required length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is 16√5.

Given that,
If the lengths of the legs of a right triangle are 4 and 8, what is the length of the hypotenuse is to be determined.

What are Pythagorean triplets?  

In a right-angled triangle, its side, such as hypotenuse, perpendicular, and the base is Pythagorean triplets.

Here,
Applying the Pythagorean theorem,
Hypotenuse²  = perpendicula² + base²
Hypotenuse²  = 8² + 4²
Hypotenuse²  = 64 + 16
Hypotenuse²  = 80
Hypotenuse  = √80
Hypotenuse  =  16√5

Thus, the required length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is 16√5.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a + 45 + 70 = 180             45 becomes an interior angle by being opposite a given vertically opposite angle.

a + 115 = 180                      Subtract 115 from both sides

a = 65

b + 68 + 65 = 180            A straight line is 180 degrees.

b +  133 = 180

b = 180 - 133

b = 47

In the triangle b + c + 100 = 180

b = 47

47 + c + 100 = 180

147 + c = 180

c = 33

If C is an exterior angle then C + 33 = 180

C = 147

You have to decide whether c is an interior angle ( in which it is 33) or an exterior angle (in which case it is 147).

Answers

Mukat gets 40, Usha gets 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Mukat = 5 × Usha

After Mukat gives Usha 16 books ,Usha gets (16 + initial number of books) and Mukat gets (5 × Usha - 16)

Then Mukat = final number of books for Usha

5 × Usha - 16 = Usha + 16

(5 × Usha ) - Usha = 16+16

4 × Usha = 32

Usha = 8 i.e her number of books.

Mukat = 5×8=40.

SP=2x+3, and LN=5x−14. Find SP.

Answers

Answer:

43

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Thales theorem:

● SP/LN = RP /RN

Notice that RN = 2×RP

● SP/LN = RP/2RP

● SP /LN = 1/2

● SP / (5x-14) = 0.5

● (2x+3)/(5x-14) = 0.5

● 2x+3 = 0.5(5x-14)

● 2x+3 = 2.5x -7

Add 7 to both sides

● 2x+3+7 = 2.5x-7+7

● 2x+10 = 2.5x

Sustract 2x brom both sides

● 2x+10-2x = 2.5x-2x

● 10 = 0.5x

Multiply both sides by 2

● 10×2 = 0.5x×2

● 20 = x

Replace x with 20 in Sp expression:

● SP = 2x+3

● SP = 2×20+3

● SP = 43

7a) 35km

b) car A=75km  car B=60km

c) 30km

d) car A≈36mins  car B≈48mins

Step-by-step explanation:

6a) Using the graph follow the lines until they finish then go downwards until you get to the x-axis. The x-axis is going up by 12mins for each square.

b) Using the answer from a, you divide 200km by the time.

For car A 2hrs 36mins becomes 2.6 because 36mins/60mins=0.6

∴ car A: 200/2.6≈ 76.92km/h

For car B 3hrs 12mins becomes 3.2 because 12mins/60mins=0.2

∴ car B: 200/3.2≈ 62.5km/h

7a) Using the graph go down from where the line of car A finished to meet car B. The y-axis is going up by 5km for each square.

b) Starting from the x-axis at 1 hour go upwards to see where you meet the car B line (60km) and car A line(75km). (sorry if that does not really make sense).

c) Difference from car A line to car B:

155km-125km=30km

d) Going across from 50km meet car A line and go down to see it has been travelling for approx. 36mins. Then continue across to car B line, go down to see it reached 50km at approx. 48mins.
