A mother gazes out a second-floor window at her son playing at the playground. If the mother's eye level is 12.6 meters off of l

evel ground and the playground is 20 meters from the base of the building, what is the angle of depression from the mother's line of sight to the playground?

The  arrangement of mother's eye level, ground level and playground forms a right angles triangle.
The legs of this triangle are 12.6 m (eye level to ground) and 20 m (building to playground).

Using trigonometry and assuming the depression angle is Ф;
tan Ф = 20/12.6 = 1.5873
Ф = tan ^-1(1.5873) = 57.78°

Which represents the reflection of f(x)= square root x over the x-axis?
antiseptic1488 [7]
The reflection of f(x)=sqrt(x) over x-axis will be represented by option a. This is because it is the reflection of the imaginary part of the function f(x)= sqrt(x). Hence the correct answer is a.

Which statement identifies how to show that j(x) = 11.6ex and k(x) = In (StartFraction x Over 11.6 EndFraction) are inverse func
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

<h2>It must be shown that both j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function  j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6}, to show that both equality functions are true, all we need to show is that both  j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x,

For j(k(x));

j(k(x)) = j[(ln x/11.6)]

j[(ln (x/11.6)] = 11.6e^{ln (x/11.6)}

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6(x/11.6) (exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm)

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6 * x/11.6

j[(ln x/11.6)] = x

Hence j[k(x)] = x

Similarly for k[j(x)];

k[j(x)] = k[11.6e^x]

k[11.6e^x] = ln (11.6e^x/11.6)

k[11.6e^x]  = ln(e^x)

exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm leaving x

k[11.6e^x]  = x

Hence k[j(x)] = x

From the calculations above, it can be seen that j[k(x)] =  k[j(x)]  = x, this shows that the functions j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6} are inverse functions.

Jayden has some dimes and some quarters. He has at most 25 coins worth at least $4.60 combined. If Jayden has 7 dimes, determine
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A dime is worth 10 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes 10/100 = $0.1

A quarter is worth 25 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes 25/100 = $0.25

Let x represent the number of dimes that Jayden has.

Let y represent the number of quarters that Jayden has.

Jayden has some dimes and some quarters. He has at most 25 coins. It means that

x + y ≤ 25

The coins worth at least $4.60 combined. It means that

0.1x + 0.25y ≥ 4.6 - - - - - - - - - - 1

If Jayden has 7 dimes, then

7 + y ≤ 25

y ≤ 25 - 7

y ≤ 18

Substituting x = 7 into equation 1, it becomes

0.1 × 7 + 0.25y ≥ 4.6

0.7 + 0.25y ≥ 4.6

0.25y ≥ 4.6 - 0.7

0.25y ≥ 3.9

y ≥ 3.9/0.25

y ≥ 15.6

All possible values for the number of quarters that he could have would be

15.6 ≤ y ≤ 18

At a gas station, suppose that 45% of the customers purchase premium grade gas. Assume that these customers decide independently
valkas [14]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The probability that at least one of the next three customers purchases premium gas is the complement of the probability that none of the next three customers purchase premium gas = 1 - (1-P(A))³ = 0.834

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a customer would purchase premium grade = 45 %

That is P(A) = 0.45 and

The probability that the customer would purchase another  grade = P(B) = 0.55

Therefore the probability of at least one of the next three customers purchase premium gas is

P(k=0) = (1 - P)ⁿ and the probability of at least one customer purchases premium gas is the compliment of the probability that the next three customers purchase another gas brand

that is (1 - P(A))×(1 - P(A))×(1 - P(A)) = P(B)×P(B)×P(B) = 0.55³  and the complement is 1 - 0.55³  = 0.834
