Which equation can be used to find the length of Line segment A C? Triangle A B C is shown. Angle A C B is 90 degrees and angle

A B C is 40 degrees. The length of hypotenuse A B is 10 inches, the length of A C is b, and the length of C B is a. (10)sin(40o) = AC (10)cos(40o) = AC StartFraction 10 Over sine (40 degrees) EndFraction = AC StartFraction 10 Over cosine (40 degrees) EndFraction = AC

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

AC = 10sin(40°)

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The diagram representing the question is shown in the attached image

Since the given triangle is a right-angled triangle, we can apply the special trig functions

<u>These functions are as follows:</u>

sin(θ) = opposite / hypotenuse

cos(θ) = adjacent / hypotenuse

tan(θ) = opposite / adjacent

<u>Now, in the given diagram:</u>

θ = 40°

AC is the side opposite to θ

AB = 10 in is the hypotenuse

<u>Based on these givens</u>, we will use the sin(θ) function

<u>Therefore:</u>

sin(40) = \frac{AC}{10}\\ \\AC = 10sin(40)

62% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U.S. adults. Find the probability that the
velikii [3]

Answer:

a) 0.1829

b) 0.6823

c) 0.0413

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

We treat adult having little confidence in the newspaper as a success.

P(Adult have little confidence) = 62% = 0.62

Then the number of adults follows a binomial distribution, where

P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}

where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.

Now, we are given n = 10

a) exactly 5

P(x =5)\\\\=\binom{10}{5}(0.62)^5(1-0.62)^5\\\\=0.1829

0.1829 is the probability that exactly 5 out of 10 U.S.adults have very little confidence in newspapers.

b) atleast six

P(x \geq 6)\\\\ = P(x = 6) + P(x = 7)+P(x = 8)+P(x = 9)+P(x=10)\\\\= \displaystyle\sum \binom{10}{n}(0.62)^n(1-0.62)^{10-n}, n =6,7,8,9,10\\\\= 0.6823

0.6823 is the probability that atleast 6 out of 10 U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers.

c) less than four

P(x

0.0413 is the probability that less than 4 out of 10 U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers.

A guy wire is used to support flagpoles in windy areas. These wires are anchored in the ground to provide constant stability. Yo
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer: a) Length of wire to replace old one=9ft

b) Length of wire=3.09ft

Leftover wire=0.91ft

Step-by-step explanation: from the right angle triangle, Tan&=20/15

&=53.13°

Length of wire,x=cos 31.13=x/15

15cos31.13

X=9

b) Tan&=10/6

Tan^-110/6

&=59.05

Length= 6cos59.04

X=3.09

4-3.09=.91= leftover wire

What is −34, 0.5, 23,−73, 1.2 in order from least to greatest?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

-73, -34, 0.5, 1.2, 23

Step-by-step explanation:

In Mathematics, the set of numbers are arranged in two ways. It means that the numbers can be arranged either in ascending order or descending order. If the numbers are arranged from the least to the greatest, then it is called ascending order. In this form, the numbers are in increasing order. The first number should be lesser than the second number.

If the numbers are arranged from the greatest to the least, then it is called descending order. In this form, the numbers are in decreasing form. The first number should be greater than the second number.

Also, read: Descending Order

Standard Form

<em>The standard form to represent the least to the greatest arrangement </em>of numbers is given by:

a < b < c < d  < …..

Here,  

a, b, c, d represent the numbers

Example: 2 < 5 < 7 < 8

James and his family spend a morning picking peaches. They fill several bags. This line plot shows the weight of each bag.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

1 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to figure out the lightest and the heaviest bad. The lightest bag is 4 1/4 and the heaviest is 5 3/4. Now to subtract, you can't subtract this as a mixed fraction so turn each fraction into an improper fraction by multiplying the whole number by the denominator then adding the numerator to the product of the whole number multiplied  by the denominator (if you didn't know numerator is the top and the denominator is the bottom. To find out 4 1/4 as an improper fraction follow these steps (4*4+1=17) so 4 1/4=17/4. The process is the same for 5 3/4 (5*4+3=23) so   5 3/4= 23/4. Now to subtract, you subtract the numerator but not the denominator. You subtract because the question asks how many more and that means to subtract 23/4-17/4= 6/4. Last step is to turn this back into a mixed fraction do that by dividing the numerator by the denominator, 6 divided by 4 equals 1.5 and turn the decimal into a fraction 1 is a whole number so you don't  change that but the 5 behind the decimal needs to be changed so now 1.5= 1 5/10 and last step is simplify 1 1/2. Hope this helped :).
