Answer:

(C)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a right triangle, ACB which is right angled at C has BC = 24 inches, and AB = 25 inches.

We know that m∠C=90°,

Using the trigonometry in ΔACB, we have

$sinB=\frac{AC}{AB}$

Substituting the given values, we get

⇒ $sinB=\frac{24}{25}$

⇒ $B=sin^{-1}(0.96)$

⇒ $B=73.7^{\circ}$

Also, $sinA=\frac{CB}{AB}$

Substituting the given values, we get

⇒ $sinA=\frac{7}{25}$

⇒ $A=sin^{-1}(0.28)$

⇒ $A=16.3^{\circ}$

Therefore, the measure of the angles in triangle ABC are m∠A ≈ 73.7°, m∠B ≈ 16.3°, m∠C ≈ 90°.

Thus, option C is correct.

Translate and solve: seventy-eight times n is at least 312.

RideAnS [48]

It translates to $78n \ge 312$ which solves to $n \ge 4$ after dividing both sides by 78. This means n is equal to 4 or it can be larger than 4.

A set of data points has a line of best fit of y=2.5x-1.5

castortr0y [4]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1- You must apply the following formula:

$R=yo-yp$

Where $R$ is the residual, $yo$ is the observed value $y$ and $yp$ is the predicted value $y$ .

2- You only need to substitute the $x=5$ into the equation $y=2.5x-1.5$ and then, you must apply the formula for calculate the residual:

$y=2.5(5)-1.5\\ y=11$

$R=12-11\\ R=1$

The answer is: The residual is $1$

Compare and contrast expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions with simplifying numeric expressions. For example, compare

larisa [96]

With algebraic expressions, you can’t add and subtract any terms like you can add and subtract numbers. Terms must be like terms in order to combine them. So, you can’t always simplify an algebraic expression by following the order of operations. You have to use the distributive property to rewrite the expression and then combine like terms to simplify. With numeric expressions, you can either simplify inside the parentheses first or use the distributive property first.

Mateus’s bank issued an advertisement saying that 90\%90%90, percent of its customers are satisfied with the bank’s services. Si

densk [106]

Answer:

The probability of getting a sample with 80% satisfied customers or less is 0.0125.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the results of 1000 simulations, each simulating a sample of 80 customers, assuming there are 90 percent satisfied customers.

Let $\hat p$ = sample proportion of satisfied customers

The z-score probability distribution for the sample proportion is given by;

Z = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, p = population proportion of satisfied customers = 90%

n = sample of customers = 80

Now, the probability of getting a sample with 80% satisfied customers or less is given by = P( $\hat p \leq$ 80%)

P( $\hat p \leq$ 80%) = P( $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ $\leq$ $\frac{0.80-0.90}{\sqrt{\frac{0.80(1-0.80)}{80} } }$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ -2.24) = 1 - P(Z < 2.24)

= 1 - 0.9875 = 0.0125

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.24 in the z table which has an area of 0.9875.
