What is the law of sines?

According to the law of sine, or sine law, the ratio of a triangle's side length to the sine of the opposing angle remains constant for all three sides. The sine rule is another name for it.

Here,

According to the law of sines

BC/sin A = AC/sin B = AB/sin C

∠A = 43°, ∠B = 31°, ∠C = 180° - ∠A - ∠B = 106°

AB = 21 miles

So, BC = (AB/SinC)×SinA

BC = 14.9 miles

Hence, Tower B is 14.9 miles away from the fire.

Answer:

After 8 minutes ; altitude = 22,400 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

s1 = 2800t

s2 = -3200t + 48 000

2800t = -3200t + 48 000

28t = -32t + 480

7t = -8t + 120

7t + 8t = 120

15t = 120

15/15 t = 120/15

t = 8 minutes

s = 8 * (2800)  =   22400 feet

The equation of the line perpendicular to y = - (1 / 2) · x - 2 and that passes through the point (x, y) = (- 3, - 5) is y = 2 · x + 1.

In this problem we must determine the equation of a line perpendicular to another line, provided that the equation of a line and a point of intersection are given. According to analytical geometry, two lines are perpendicular if and only if the product of the two slopes equals - 1.

The equations of the line are defined by functions of the form:

y = m · x + b

Where:

And the slope relationship between two perpendicular line:

m · m' = - 1

Where:

First, derive the equation of the line in slope-intercept form:

x + 2 · y = - 4

2 · y = - x - 4

y = - (1 / 2) · x - 2

Second, calculate the slope of the perpendicular line by the slope relationship:

m' = - 1 / (- 1 / 2)

m' = 2

Third, find the y-intercept of the perpendicular line by the equation of line, the slope and the coordinates of the given point:

b = y - m · x

b = - 5 - 2 · (- 3)

b = - 5 + 6

b = 1

Then, obtain the equation of the line in slope-intercept form:

y = 2 · x + 1

The equation of the line is y = 2 · x + 1.

Answer:

y = m x + b       equation for a straight line

when x = 4     y = 5

5 = m * 4 + b

m = (5 - b) / 4      solving for m

when x = -3      y = -1

-1 = (5 - b) / 4 * -3 + b = -3 * (5 - b) / 4 + 4 b / 4

-1 = (-15 + 3 b + 4 b) / 4

11 = 7 b      b = 11 / 7

Since m = (5 - b) / 4

m = (5 - 11/7) / 4  = 6/7

We then have y = 6 x / 7 + 11 / 7

Nick got a total of $33.25 for his part of work.

The general equation of a straight line is -

[y] = [m]x + [c]

where -

[m] is slope of line which tells the unit rate of change of [y] with respect to [x].

[c] is the y - intercept i.e. the point where the graph cuts the [y] axis.

y = mx also represents direct proportionality. We can write [m] as -

m = y/x

OR

y₁/x₁ = y₂/x₂

We have Nick and Pam are paid $52.25 for their work. Nick worked 3.5 Hours, and Pam worked two hours. They split the money according to the amount of time each of them worked.

Assume that Nick recieved $[x]. Then, Pam will get - (52.25 - x). For direct proportionality -

y₁/x₁ = y₂/x₂

We can write -

x/3.5 = (52.25 - x)/2

2x = 3.5(52.25 - x)

2x = 182.875 - 3.5x

x = 33.25

Answer:

x = 9/5 y - 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Make x the subject:

9y - 5x =4

Subtract 9y from each side

9y-9y - 5x =-9y+4

-5x = -9y +4

Divide each side by -5

-5x/-5 = -9y/-5 + 4/-5

x = 9/5 y - 4/5

Answer:

x = (9/5)y - (4/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

→ 9y - 5x = 4

Solving for the required value of x,

→ 9y - 5x = 4

→ -5x = -9y + 4

→ x = (-9y + 4)/-5

→ [ x = (9/5)y - (4/5) ]

Hence, value of x = (9/5)y - (4/5).

At 50 meters in depth under water the pressure is 6 (atm)

We will consider the two given data values as our points 1 and 2 respectively. And that is what we are going to use to create a linear function for pressure

Let the y and x represent the pressure and depth respectively

point 1 (30, 4) and point 2 (50, 6)

slope(m) = y2-y1 / x2-x1

where  x1 =30, y1 = 4 and x2 = 50, y2 = 6

slope(m) = 6-4 / 50-30 = 2/20 = 1/10

Linear function are of the form y-y1 = m(x-x1). Thus:

y-4 = 1/10 (x-30)

y-4 = 1/10(x) - 3

y = 1/10(x) + 1 = 0.1x + 1

Using the concepts of probability, we got that 0.4286 is the probability  that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less  which is about 42.86%.

From the given information;

Let  X represent the continuous random variable with uniform distribution U (A, B) . Therefore the probability density function can now be determined as :

[tex]f_X(x)[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{B-A}[/tex] where A<x<B

where A and B  are the two parameters of the uniform distribution

From the question;

Assume that battery life of the iPad Mini is uniformly distributed between 8.5 and 12 hours

So; Let A = 8,5 and B = 12

Therefore; the mathematical expression for the probability density function of battery life is :

[tex]f_X(x)[/tex] = [1 / (12-8.5)]8.5<x<12

[tex]f_X(x)=[/tex](1/3.5)8.5<x<12

The  probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less can be calculated as:

F(x) = P(X ≤x)

F(10)=[tex](x-A)/(B-A)[/tex]

F(10)=(10-8.5)/(12-8.5)

F(10)=1.5/3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the bearing and distance to the airport from a plane that is 95 miles east and 80 miles south of it.

The Pythagorean theorem or the distance formula can be used to find the distance to the airport.

  d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)²)

  d = √((95 -0)² +(-80 -0)²) = √(9025 +6400) = √15425

  d ≈ 124.197 . . . . miles

The plane is about 124.2 miles from the airport.

The reference angle with respect to the +y axis can be found using the tangent relation.

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(α) = 95/80 = 19/16

  α = arctan(19/16) ≈ 49.9° . . . . . . CCW from +y axis

The bearing angle is measured clockwise from the +y axis (north), so is ...

  bearing = 360° -49.9° = 310.1°

The bearing to the airport is 310.1°.

Additional comment

Some navigators would refer to the bearing as N 49.9° W.

Less commonly, it might be referred to as W 40.1° N. Usually, N and S are the reference directions, with the modification being E or W from there. The less common usage might be chosen if an angle less than 45° is wanted.

The bearing is often reported to the nearest degree, without any degree symbol, as N50W.

Answer:

X = 2, Y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the two equations together to cancel out -4y and +4y

leaving you with:

8x = 16

8x = 16

divide both sides of the equation by 8 to get x on its own (8x/8 = x, 16/8 =2)

leaving you with:

x = 2

substitute the value of x back into the equation to calculate y (it can be either equation, top or bottom):

8(2) - 4 y = 16

8 x 2 = 16

leaving you with:

16 - 4y = 16

subtract 16 from both sides to get 4y on its own

leaving you with:

-4y = 0

so y = 0, and x = 2

Yes, the difference in mean mpg between 4 and 8 cylinder cars statistically significant because the calculated value of t statistic is higher than the critical t value.

What is t statistic and critical value of t?

T statistic is ratio of a parameter's estimated value to its standard error when it deviates from its hypothesized value.

Critical t value is a cut-off point in t distribution

In question, the calculated t statistic is 8.1023 and critical t value one tail is 1.7139 and critical t value two tail is 2.0686. So, the value of calculated t statistic is higher than critical t value one tail or two tail. Therefore, we can reject the null hypothesis.
