Answer:

la distancia del punto de observación A al incendio = 5.5 millas

la distancia del punto de observación B al incendio = 3.8 millas

Step-by-step explanation:

La expresión esquemática de la pregunta se puede ver en la imagen adjunta a continuación :

Del siguiente diagrama;

Usando la sine regla:

\dfrac{sin \  F}{f} = \dfrac{sin  \ A }{a}

\dfrac{sIn \  79}{6} = \dfrac{sin \   63}{a}

a sin 79 = 6 sin 63

a =\dfrac{6 \times sin \ 63}{sin \ 79}

a =\dfrac{6 \times 0.8910}{0.9816}

a = 5.446 millas

la distancia del punto de observación A al incendio = 5.5 millas (a la décima más cercana)

\dfrac{sin \  F}{f} = \dfrac{sin  \ B}{b}

\dfrac{sin \  79}{6} = \dfrac{sin  \ 38}{b}

b sin 79 = 6 sin 38

b  = \dfrac{6 \times sin  \ 38}{sin \  79}

b  = \dfrac{6 \times0.6157 }{0.9816}

b = 3.7635 millas

la distancia del punto de observación B al incendio = 3.8 millas (a la décima más cercana)

Given ΔMNO, find the measure of ∠LMN.
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

  104°

Step-by-step explanation:

If segments NO and NM are congruent, then angles NMO and NOM are congruent. So, their supplements, angles NML and NOP are congruent. That is ...

  ∠NML ≅ ∠NOP = 104°

  ∠NML = 104°

A company that manufactures small canoes has a fixed cost of $ 18 comma 000$18,000. It costs $ 120$120 to produce each canoe. Th
Scilla [17]
If the company makes 1 canoe only, then the cost is, the fixed cost plus how much it costs for the 1 canoe, or
180,000 + 1*120

if it makes 2 canoes
180,000 + 2*120
3 canoes   180,000 + 3*120
4canoes   180,000 + 4*120
x canoes  180,000 + x*120

so... we dunno what "x" is, but whatever "x" maybe, the cost ends up as 180,000 + x*120, or 180,000 + 120x

now, let's see the revenue
1 canoe 1 * 240
2 canoes 2*240
3 canoes 3*240
x canoes x*240

so.. whatever "x" maybe, the Revenue is x*240 or 240x

break-even point is when, the amount of expenses and earnings cancel each other out, or, there's no profit, but there's no loss either, same amount that's spent is also earned back

so, the break-even point occurs when Revenue = Cost

180,000 + 120x = 240x     <--- solve for "x"

After calculating the sample size needed to estimate a population proportion to within 0.05, you have been told that the maximum
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:  40000

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the sample size is given by :-

n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2, where p is the prior estimate of the population proportion.

Here we can see that the sample size is inversely proportion withe square of margin of error.

i.e. n\ \alpha\ \dfrac{1}{E^2}

By the equation inverse variation, we have

n_1E_1^2=n_2E_2^2

Given : E_1=0.05   n_1=1000

E_2=0.025

Then, we have

(1000)(0.05)^2=n_2(0.025)^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2.5=0.000625n_2\\\\\Rightarrow\ n_2=\dfrac{2.5}{0.000625}=4000

Hence, the sample size will now have to be 4000.

Use the drawing tool(s) to form the correct answers on the provided graph.
anastassius [24]

Answer:

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the vertex form of a parabola which opens upwards.

To find the x intercept put h(x) = 0:

(x + 1)^2 - 4 = 0

(x + 1)^2 = 4

x + 1 = +/- 2

x = (-3, 0) an (1, 0) are the x-intercepts.

For the y-intercept we put x = 0

y = (0+1)^2 - 4 = -3

y-intercept =  (0, -3).

The vertex  is (-1, -4).

Axis of symmetry is x = -1.

gulaghasi [49]

Each tweet would cost between 1 and 140 pennies you can write that as an inequality [1 ≤ x ≤ 140] Since you can't tweet 0 characters or above 140.

if you want to change it to pounds divide by 100.

A) 1 ≤ x ≤ 140

B) Each character costs a penny, you can't tweet less than 1 character or above 140.
