Answer: We should use the correct formula for tan α (which is opposite

leg over adjacent leg) tan α = 5/b

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached file

We must use the for equation of tan α = BC/AC

tan α = BC/ b tan α = 5/b tan 30⁰ = 1/√3

b = 5/√3 ⇒ b = 5/1.7320

b = 2.8868 cm

Answer:

$tan30^{\circ}=\frac{5}{b}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a triangle ABC in which angle CAB=90 degrees

Angle CAB=30 degrees

Length of BC= 5 cm

Length of AB=10 cm

Length of AC=b

We have to find the equation which is used to solve for b.

We know that

$tan\theta=\frac{Perpendicular\;side}{Base}$

Substitute the values

$tan30^{\circ}=\frac{BC}{CA}$

$tan30^{\circ}=\frac{5}{b}$

$\frac{1}{\sqrt3}=\frac{5}{b}$ ( $tan30^{\circ}=\frac{1}{\sqrt3}$ )

$b=5\sqrt3$

Hence, the equation can be used to solve for b is given

$tan30^{\circ}=\frac{5}{b}$

There are four steps for converting the equation x2 + y2 + 12x + 2y – 1 = 0 into standard form by completing the square. complet

goblinko [34]

Let's first write each step of the procedure:
Step 1:
group the x terms together and the terms and together, and move the constant term to the other side of the equation:
x² + 12x + y² + 2y = 1
Step 2:
determine (b ÷ 2) 2 for the x and y terms.
(12 ÷ 2) 2 = 36
and
(2 ÷ 2) 2 = 1
Step 3:
add the values to both sides of the equation.
x2 + 12x + 36 + y2 + 2y + 1 = 1 + 36 + 1
Step 4:
write each trinomial to binomial squared, and simplify the right side.
(x + 6) 2 + (y + 1) 2 = 38
Answer:
the last step is:
(x + 6) 2 + (y + 1) 2 = 38

A fisherman is interested in whether the distribution of fish caught in Green Valley Lake is the same as the distribution of fis

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

p = 0.293

Conclusion:

"There is insufficient evidence to state that the distribution of fish in Green Valley Lake is not the same as the distribution of fish in Echo Lake."

Step-by-step explanation:

------------R/trout--O/trout---bass--catfish---total

GVL - - - 105 - - - 27 - - - - - 35--- 24 - - - 191

EL - - - - 135------- 48-------- 67 - - 43 - - - 293

Total - - 240 - - - 75 - - - - - 102--- 67 - - - 484

Note : GVL = GREEN VALLEY LAKE ; EL = ECHO LAKE.

H0: The distribution of fish caught in green valley is the same as that caught in Echo lake.

H1: The distribution of fish caught in Green Valley lake is different from that caught in Echo valley lake.

Using the chi-squared test statistic calculator ;

χ2 = 3.7269

p-value = 0.2925.

p-value = 0.293

Conclusion:

"There is insufficient evidence to state that the distribution of fish in Green Valley Lake is not the same as the distribution of fish in Echo Lake."

Use complete sentences to explain how the coordinate plane is a useful tool for geometric proofs.

Masja [62]

the facilitate verification is a proof of a geometric hypothesis which utilizes "summed up" indicates on the Cartesian Plane make a contention.

The strategy for the most part includes doling out factors to the directions of at least one focuses, and afterward utilizing these factors in the midpoint or separation equations .

For instance, the accompanying is an arrange evidence of the Triangle Midsegment Theorem , which expresses that the fragment interfacing the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and precisely a large portion of the length.

A random sample of 50 units is drawn from a production process every half hour. the true fraction of nonconforming products manu

Naya [18.7K]

solution:

The probability mass function for binomial distribution is,

Where,

X=0,1,2,3,…..; q=1-p

find the probability that (p∧ ≤ 0.06) , substitute the values of sample units (n) , and the probability of nonconformities (p) in the probability mass function of binomial distribution.

Consider x to be the number of non-conformities. It follows a binomial distribution with n being 50 and p being 0.03. That is,

binomial (50,0.02)

Also, the estimate of the true probability is,

p∧ = x/50

The probability mass function for binomial distribution is,

Where,

X=0,1,2,3,…..; q=1-p

The calculation is obtained as

P(p^ ≤ 0.06) = p(x/20 ≤ 0.06)

= 50cx ₓ (0.03)x ₓ (1-0.03)50-x

= (50c0 ₓ (0.03)0 ₓ (1-0.03)50-0 + 50c1(0.03)1 ₓ (1-0.03)50-1 + 50c2 ₓ (0.03)2 ₓ (1-0.03)50-2 +50c3 ₓ (0.03)3 ₓ (1- 0.03)50-3 )

=( ₓ (0.03)0 ₓ (1-0.03)50-0 + ₓ (0.03)1 ₓ (1-0.03)50-1 + ₓ (0.03)2 ₓ (1-0.03)50-2 ₓ (0.03)3 ₓ (1-0.03)50-3 )

What is the probability that a point chosen at random in the rectangle is also in the blue triangle? A triangle inside of a rect

Oduvanchick [21]

Alright, lets get started.

Two sides of the rectange are 14 and s.

So, the area of the rectange would be =

So, the area of the rectange would be =

A triangle is cut from the rectangle.

The height of the triangle is =

The base of the triangle is = 14

So area of the triangle would be =

area of the triangle would be =

area of the triangle would be =

So, the area of shaded region = area of rectange - area of triangle

the area of shaded region =

As per given in question, area of shaded region is 84, hence

..........equation

So, this is the equation for s : Answer

Hope it will help :)
