Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Please refer the diagram I have attached.

It will form a right triangle.

height is 175 feet.

The length is 200 feet long.

using SOH CAH TOA,

Suppose angle of depression is x, then

sin x = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

sin x = \frac{175}{200}

sin x = 0.875

Taking sin inverse

x = sin^{-1}(0.875) = 61.04

Hence te angle of depression is 61.04 degrees. :   Answer

Hope it will help :)

Segment AB falls on line 2x − 4y = 8. Segment CD falls on line 4x + 2y = 8. What is true about segments AB and CD? They are perp
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

They are perpendicular because they have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of −2 and one half.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because x = -2 and half of -2 is 1

when we use CD line and x2 we find 8x+4y=16 when added to 2x -4y=8 would equal 10x+4y = 2 1/2 xy = 16

When we use for AB line we see they are perpendicular 2 1/2 x 2 = 5 -4y = 8 shows y to be -2 and the 1/2 line leaves -2 1/2 and x also is 2 1/2.

Which option lists an expression that is not equivalent to 4 2/3?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Option A and Option B are not equivalent to the given expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following expression:

4^{\frac{2}{3}}

Applying properties of exponents and base:

(a^x)^y = a^{xy}\\a^{-x}= (\frac{1}{a})^x\\

A. Using the exponential property a^{-x}= (\frac{1}{a})^x\\, we can write:

0.25^{\frac{3}{2}} = (\frac{1}{0.25})^{\frac{-3}{2}} = (4)^{\frac{-3}{2}}

which is not equal to the given expression.

B. Using the exponential property a^{-x}= (\frac{1}{a})^x\\, we can write:

(0.25)^{\frac{-3}{2}} = (\frac{1}{0.25})^{\frac{3}{2}} = (4)^{\frac{3}{2}}

which is not equal to the given expression.

C. First we convert the radical form into exponent form. Then by using the property (a^x)^y = a^{xy} of exponent, we can write the following:

^3\sqrt{16} = (16)^{\frac{1}{3}} = (4^2)^{\frac{1}{3}} = 4^{\frac{2}{3}}

which is equal to the given expression.

D. First we convert the radical form into exponent form. Then by using the property (a^x)^y = a^{xy} of exponent, we can write the following:

(^3\sqrt{4})^2 = (4^{\frac{1}{3}})^2 = 4^{\frac{2}{3}}

which is equal to the given expression.

Option D and Option C are equivalent to the given expression.

Given that the order of selection does not matter, it is the combination of 45 persons taken of 3.

This is (45!) / [(45-3)! * 3! ] = 45*47*46 / (3*2) = 16,215.

Answer: 16,215 different 3 person teams
