A Train Track Through A Mountain Is 1600 Feet Long And Makes An Angle Of 1.6 With The Horizontal. What

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

law of sine :

a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC

with the sides and correlating angles being always opposite to each other.

we are dealing with a right-angled triangle here.

the train track is the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the 90° angle) : 1600 ft.

the horizontal level "connection" from beginning to the end of the track is one leg, and the elevation difference at the end of the track is the second leg.

the 2 legs enclose a 90° angle, as the elevation goes straight up from the horizontal level.

so, we have

1600/sin(90) = elevation difference / sin(1.6)

sin(90) = 1

1600 = elevation difference / sin(1.6)

elevation difference = 1600 × sin(1.6) =

= 1600 × 0.027921639... =

= 44.67462196... ft

≈ 44.7 ft

The space between two intersecting lines is called an:
Angle



An angle is formed when two lines meet at a shared point. They are measured in degrees. There are four important types of angle; acute, right, obtuse, and reflex. A full circle has 360 degrees. If you see an angle of 720 degrees, it means it has rotated twice around a full circle.

360 degrees (one time round) x 2 = 720 degrees (two times round)

What is an angle measure?

When two lines or rays intersect at a single point, an angle is created. The vertex is the term for the shared point. An angle measure in geometry is the length of the angle created by two rays or arms meeting at a common vertex.

Given:

Radius is equal to arc length.

To find the measure of the angle at the center:

We have the formula,

Angle in radian = arc length / radius

Let a be the arc length,

then a be the radius.

Substituting the values,

Angle in radian = a/a

Angle in radian = 1 radian

Therefore, 1 is the measure of an angle at the center.

Answer:

7 pairs of shoes

Step-by-step explanation:

So your equation is P(x) = -6x² + 60x - 126. This is a parabolic function, and it looks like we can factor it.

First, let's factor out -6 from the equation to simplify it. If we divide each part of the equation by -6, that leaves us with -6(x² - 10x + 21).

Now, we can factor the equation further by finding two numbers that add up to -10 and multiply to get 21. We know that both have to be negative numbers since they add up to a negative number and multiply to a positive one. The numbers you get are -3 and -7, making the equation P(x) = -6(x-3)(x-7).

x = 3 or 7. To maximize profit, you should sell 7 pairs of shoes.

Based on a poll of 1000 residents, a newspaper article claims that 62% of the residents in town favor the development of a recreational park on the west side of town. A community action group interested in preserving the environment claims that 45% of the town’s residents favor the development of a recreational park. To determine whether the sample supports the population proportion, a simulation of 100 trials is run, each
with a sample of 200, using the point estimate of the population. The minimum sample proportion from the simulation is 0.46 and the maximum sample proportion is 0.76.

(a) What is the point estimate of the population? Answer is $0.62

(b) The margin of error of the population proportion is found using an estimate of the standard deviation. What is the interval estimate of the true population proportion?

(c) The margin of error of the population proportion is found using half the range. What is the interval estimate of the true population proportion?

(d) Is the community action group’s claim likely based on either interval estimate of the true population proportion? Explain.

Answers

The probability computed shows that the point estimate of the population is 6.2%.

How to calculate the probability?

a. The point estimate of the population will be calculated thus:

= 62% = 62/100 = 0.62

b. The margin of error of the population will be:

= z value × [✓0.62 × ✓0.38 / ✓200]

= 1.96 × (0.78 × 0.61 / 14.14)

= 0.0672

Therefore, the interval estimate is 6.72%.

c. The margin of error of the population proportion is found using half the range will be:

= [0.76 - 0.46] /2

= 0.30/2

= 0.15

d.  The community action group’s claim is likely based on either interval estimate of the true population proportion since the confidence interval value is greater than 0.45.

Answers

Answer:

  11.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem can be solved using a trig relation that relates the side opposite the angle to the side adjacent to the angle. That relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

The lengths of the adjacent sides of the triangle can be found by rearranging this formula:

  Adjacent = Opposite/Tan

__

The "opposite" side of the triangle is the height of the tree, which we can represent using h. The problem statement tells us of a relation between adjacent side lengths and angles:

  h/tan(25°) -h/tan(50°) = 15 . . . . . moving 15 meters changes the angle

  h(1/tan(25°) -1/tan(50°)) = 15

  h = 15·tan(25°)·tan(50°)/(tan(50°) -tan(25°)) = 15(0.55572/0.72545)

  h ≈ 11.4907 . . . . meters

The height of the tree is about 11.5 meters.

The amount needed such that when it comes time for retirement, an individual can make semiannual withdrawals in the amount of $15,265 for 35 years is $225093.358.

The total amount to be withdrawn in a year = 15265*2 = $30530

The total amount to be withdrawn in 35 years =$1068550

What is the compound interest?

Compound interest is interest on interest along with interest on the principle.

Annual Rate of interest = 4.5%

Semi-annual rate of interest r=2.25%

Amount A= $1068550
