A man, 1.5m tall, is on top of a building. He observes a car on the road at an angle of 75°. If the building is 30m, how far is the car from the building?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to this question is 8.44 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is best illustrated in the photo below.

First, we must know that the angle stated in the problem is the angle of depression. Angle of depression is the angle between the horizontal and the line of sight of the observer. On the other hand, if the observer is looking upward, then the angle between the horizontal and his line of sight is called the angle of elevation.

Since we have the given angle of depression, we must use its complementary angle to solve for the distance of the car from the building.

Let x = complementary angle of 75°

y = distance of the car from the building

To solve for x,

To solve for y, we need to use a trigonometric function that will relate the adjacent of 15° and the opposite of 15°. Let us look at the mnemonics

SOH: Sine =  

CAH: Cosine =  

TOA: Tangent =  

Therefore we must use the tangent function to solve for y.

Suppose that g(x)= f(x)+ 6. Which statement best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x)?

A. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted 6 units down.

B. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted to the right.

C. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted 6 units to the left.

D. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted 6 units up.

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The + 6 moves it up 6 units.

The correct answer is (D) "The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted 6 units up."

What is the function?

A relationship between a group of inputs and one output is referred to as a function. In plain English, a function is an association between inputs in which each input is connected to precisely one output. A domain, codomain, or range exists for every function. Typically, f(x), where x is the input, is used to represent a function.

When we add a constant to a function, such as in the case of g(x) = f(x) + 6, it will shift the graph of f(x) upward by 6 units.

This is because, for any value of x, the value of f(x) will be added to 6, resulting in a vertical shift of the entire graph.

Option (A) is incorrect because adding 6 to f(x) would shift the graph up, not down.

Option (B) is incorrect because adding a constant to a function does not cause it to shift horizontally.

Option (C) is incorrect because adding 6 to f(x) would shift the graph right, not left.

D. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted 6 units up. Adding a constant term to a function will shift the graph of the function vertically. In this case, adding 6 to f(x) will shift the graph of f(x) upward by 6 units, resulting in the graph of g(x).

After a new product is launched the cumulative sales S(t) (in $1000) t weeks after launch is given by:

S(t) = 72/1 + 9e^-0.36t

Required:
a. Determine the cumulative amount in sales 3 weeks after launch.
b. Determine the amount of time required for the cumulative sales to reach $70,000.
c. What is the limiting value in sales?

Answers

Answer:

$17.750 ; 15.979 ; 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Cummulative sales, S(t) is represented by the equation :

S(t) = 72/(1 + 9e^-0.36t)

Cummulative sales after 3 weeks :

Put t = 3 in the equation, as t = time after launch

S(3) = 72/(1 + 9e^-0.36(3))

S(3) = 72 / (1 + 9e^-1.08)

S(3) = 72 / (1 +3.0563597)

S(3) = 72 / 4.0563597

S(3) = 17.749905 = $17.750 thousands

Amount of time required for sales to reach 70000

S(t) = 72/(1 + 9e^-0.36t)

S(t) = 70

70 = 72/(1 + 9e^-0.36t)

70 * (1 + 9e^-0.36t) = 72

(1 + 9e^-0.36t) = 72 / 70

1 + 9e^-0.36t = 1.0285714

9e^-0.36t = 1.0285714 - 1

9e^-0.36t = 0.0285714

e^-0.36t = 0.0285714 / 9

e^-0.36t = 0.0031746

Take the In of both sides ;

In(e^-0.36t) = In(0.0031746)

-0.36t = - 5.752573

t = - 5.752573 / - 0.36

t = 15.979

About 16 weeks

The limiting value in sales :

Take the limit as t - - > ∞

S(t - - > ∞) = 72/(1 + 9e^-0.36t)

Put t = 0

S(0) - - > 72 / (1 + 0)

72 / 1

= 72

A meeting on an unpopular topic has been announced. The number of attendees may be modeled by X where What is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend

Answers

Answer:

The probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

A meeting on an unpopular topic has been announced. The number of attendees may be modeled by X where:

P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,...

What is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend?

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Given:

P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,...                    (1)

Since it is given that at least 2 attend, it implies that we need to calculate P(x) at x = 2.

Substituting x = 2 into equation (1), we have:

P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^(2 + 1)

P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^3

P(X = 2) = 1 / 8

P(X = 2) = 0.1250, or 12.50%

Therefore, is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.

To estimate the difference we need four averages for the categorized groups i.e., control group before change, control group after change, treatment group before change and treatment group after change.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

b. False

Step-by-step explanation:

In a research study, when a researcher wants to find the impact of a new treatment, then the researcher randomly divides the the study participants into two groups. The groups are :

-- control group

-- treatment group

The control group is a group that is used to establish the cause-and-effect relationship by making the effect of an independent variable isolate. It receives no treatment or some standard treatment for the which the effect is already known.

The treatment group receives the treatment for which the effect the researcher is interested in.

Thus the averages of the four categorized groups are not required for estimating the difference.

Therefore, the answer is FALSE.

Jack is 2 years older than his sister jill. The sum of their ages is 24 years. If jack is x years, find x

Answers

Answer:

x = 13

Jack is 13 years old and Jill is 11 years old.

====================================================

Explanation:

x = Jack's age

x-2 = Jill's age, since she is 2 years younger than Jack

Add up the ages and set the sum equal to 24 to solve for x

x+(x-2) = 24

2x-2 = 24

2x = 24+2

2x = 26

x = 26/2

x = 13

Jack is 13 years old and his sister is x-2 = 13-2 = 11 years old

Check: 13+11 = 24, so the answer is confirmed.

PQ

Since Q is between the given points, then:

[tex]PR = PQ + QR[/tex]

What is probability?

Its fundamental concept is that someone will nearly surely occur. The proportion of positive events in comparison to the total of occurrences.

Then the probability is given as,

P = (Favorable event) / (Total event)

A medical device company knows that the percentage of patients experiencing injection-site reactions with the current needle is 11%.

The probability that an injection-site reaction occurs for the first time on the 6th patient of the day is given as,

P = (1 - 0.11)⁶

The length of a rectangle is four times its width.
If the area of the rectangle is 100 yd”, find its perimeter.

Answers

Answer: 50yd

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the area of any rectangle is length times width.  The perimeter is the sum of twice the length and twice the width.

Let width = x

Let length = 4x

Area = 100m2

Next, we can write an equation using these variables and formula for area.

4x2 = 100

x2 = 25

x = -5      and        x = 5

Since the dimensions cannot be negative, we accept the positive value:

x = 5

Next, we can substitute this value of x into the variables.

width = 5 m

length = 20 m

Finally, we can find the perimeter by plugging in these dimensions into the perimeter formula,

Perimeter = 2(5 m) + 2(20 m)

              = 10 m + 40 m

              = 50 m
