To find how much time the machine that took the longer job is, you would create an equation in terms of X, the amount of time it takes one of the machines.

Please see the attached picture for the work.

51 minutes is the longer time.
34 minutes for the other machine.

You are hiking and trying to determine how far away the nearest cabin is, which happens to be due north from your current positi
Damm [24]

Answer:

Cabin is 567 yards away...

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle  21.2° is also the angle of the upper interior angle of the triangle (near the cabin)

Use the tan function:

opposite = 220 yards

adjacent = x

tan(21.2°) = (opposite / adjacent)

tan(21.2°) = 220 yards/x

x * tan(21.2°) = 220 yards

x = 220 yards/ tan(21.2°)

x= 220/ 0.388

x =  567 yards.

Cabin is 567 yards away...

Find the range of y=3/2cos4x-1
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Range = [- 2.5, 0.5] = [ - 5/2, 1/2]

Step-by-step explanation:

Smallest value of cos α = - 1,

largest value of cos α = 1.

When cos 4x = - 1,  y=3/2cos4x-1 = 3/2*(-1) - 1 = - 5/2 = - 2 1/2 = - 2.5

When cos 4x = 1,  y=3/2cos4x-1 = 3/2*1 - 1 = 1/2 = 0.5

Range = [- 2.5, 0.5] = [ - 5/2, 1/2]

4vir4ik [10]
We have to choose the correct answer for the center of the circumscribed circle of a triangle. The center of the circumscribed circle of a triangle is where the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle intersects. In this case P1P2 and Q1Q2 are perpendicular bisectors of sides AB and BC, respectively and they intersect at point P. S is the point where the angle bisectors intersect ( it is the center of the inscribed circle ). Answer: <span>P.</span>

Discuss the validity of the following statement. If the statement is always​ true, explain why. If​ not, give a counterexample.
Zarrin [17]

Correction:

Because F is not present in the statement, instead of working on​P(E)P(F) = P(E∩F), I worked on

P(E∩E') = P(E)P(E').

Answer:

The case is not always true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the odds for E equals the odds against E', then it is correct to say that the E and E' do not intersect.

And for any two mutually exclusive events, E and E',

P(E∩E') = 0

Suppose P(E) is not equal to zero, and P(E') is not equal to zero, then

P(E)P(E') cannot be equal to zero.

So

P(E)P(E') ≠ 0

This makes P(E∩E') different from P(E)P(E')

Therefore,

P(E∩E') ≠ P(E)P(E') in this case.
