Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals. example: line a has a slope of 2/3, line b has a slope if -3/2 if they are perpendicular.

Which of the following could be the ratio of the length of the longer leg of a 30-60-90 triangle to the length of its hypotenuse
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Ratio of longer leg to hypotenuse is;  \sqrt{3} : 2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the special right angle triangle 30°-60°-90°  as shown below in the figure.

  • The side opposite the 30° angle is always the shortest because 30 degrees is the smallest angle.
  • The side opposite the 60° angle will be the longer leg, because 60 degrees is the mid-sized degree angle in this triangle.
  • Finally , the side opposite the 90° angle will always be the largest side(Hypotenuse) because 90 degrees is the largest angle.

In 30°−60°−90° right triangle,

  • the length of the hypotenuse is twice the length of the shorter leg,also
  • the length of the longer leg is \sqrt{3} times the length of the shorter leg.

Then:

the sides are in proportion i.e,  1:\sqrt{3} :2

Therefore, the ratio of the length of the longer leg to the length of its hypotenuse is:  \sqrt{3} : 2

The lifetime of a cheap light bulb is an exponential random variable with mean 36 hours. Suppose that 16 light bulbs are tested
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

P(T

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

The exponential distribution is "the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson process (a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate). It is a particular case of the gamma distribution". The probability density function is given by:

P(X=x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}, x>0

And 0 for other case. Let X the random variable that represent "The number of years a radio functions" and we know that the distribution is given by:

X \sim Exp(\lambda=\frac{1}{16})

Or equivalently:

X \sim Exp(\mu=16)

Solution to the problem

For this case we are interested in the total T, and we can find the mean and deviation for this like this:

\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}=\frac{T}{n}

If we solve for T we got:

T= n\bar X

And the expected value is given by:

E(T) = n E(\bar X)= n \mu= 16*36=576

And we can find the variance like this:

Var(T) = Var(n\bar X)=n^2 Var(\bar X)= n^2 *\frac{\sigma^2}{n}=n \sigma^2

And then the deviation is given by:

Sd(T)= \sqrt{n} \sigma=\sqrt{16} *36=144

And the distribution for the total is:

T\sim N(n\mu, \sqrt{n}\sigma)

And we want to find this probability:

P(T< 600)

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z=\frac{T- \mu_T}{\sigma_T}

And replacing we got this:

P(T

Everglades National Park is 225 mi long. What scale is needed to draw a map of Everglades National Park that is 10 in. long?
shusha [124]

Answer:

A. 1 in. = 22.5 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 22.5 x 10 = 225, we can conclude that this will fit the scale needed. B. is incorrect because it is simply illogical in context with a scale and the question. C. is incorrect since 10 x 0.04 is 0.4, which does not equal 10. D. is incorrect since we need the scale to add up to equal 225 mi, not 22.5.

Hope this helps!
