You are on level ground in the late afternoon. The Sun is at angle of elevation of 17 degrees. A tree casts a 206-foot long shadow feet. What is the height of the tree in the nearest foot
​

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given f(x)=ln(1+x)-x+(1/2)x^2.

We are first ask to differentiate this.

We will need chain rule for first term and power rule for all three terms.

f'(x)=(1+x)'/(1+x)-(1)+(1/2)×2x

f'(x)=(0+1)/(1+x)-(1)+x

f'(x)=1/(1+x)-(1)+x

We are then ask to prove if x is positive then f is positive.

I'm thinking they want us to use the derivative part in our answer.

Let's look at the critical numbers.

f' is undefined at x=-1 and it also makes f undefined.

Let's see if we can find when expression is 0.

1/(1+x)-(1)+x=0

Find common denominator:

1/(1+x)-(1+x)/(1+x)+x(1+x)/(1+x)=0

(1-1-x+x+x^2)/(1+x)=0

A fraction can only be zero when it's numerator is.

Simplify numerator equal 0:

x^2=0

This happens at x=0.

This means the expression,f, is increasing or decreasing after x=0. Let's found out what's happening there. f'(1)=1/(1+1)-(1)+1=1/2 which means after x=0, f is increasing since f'>0 after x=0.

So we should see increasing values of f when we up the value for x after 0.

Plugging in 0 gives: f(0)=ln(1+0)-0+(1/2)0^2=0.

So any value f, after this x=0, should be higher than 0 since f(0)=0 and f' told us f in increasing after x equals 0.

Answer:

0.9332

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mean diameter, [tex]\mu=73[/tex]

Variance, [tex]\sigma^2=4[/tex]

We have to find the probability that the diameter of a selected bearing is less than 76.

Standard deviation, [tex]\sigma=\sqrt{variance}=\sqrt{4}=2[/tex]

[tex]P(x<76)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{76-73}{2})[/tex]

[tex]P(x<76)=P(Z<\frac{3}{2})[/tex]

Where [tex]Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]P(x<76)=P(Z<1.5)[/tex]

[tex]P(x<76)=0.9332[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the diameter of a selected bearing is less than 76=0.9332

(230.21 ; 233.13)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

230.66, 233.05, 232.58, 229.48, 232.58

To calculate the 90% CI

WE obtain the mean and standard deviation of the sample data :

Mean of sample, ΣX /n = 1158.35/5 = 231.67

The standard deviation of the sample, s = 1.531 (Using calculator).

(The 90% Tcritical value, 2 sided, df = 4) = 2.132

The confidence interval, CI :

Mean ± Tcritical * s/√n

C.I = 231.67 ± (2.132 * (1.531/√5)

C. I = 231.67 ± 1.4597

(231.67 - 1.4597) ; (231.67 + 1.4597)

Answer:

The dimension that maximizes area is 144ft by 144ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]P = 576[/tex] -- perimeter

Required

The dimension that gives maximum area

Perimeter is calculated as:

[tex]P= 2 * (L + W)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]2 * (L + W) = 576[/tex]

Divide through by 2

[tex]L + W = 288[/tex]

Make L the subject

[tex]L = 288 -W[/tex]

Area is calculated as:

[tex]A = L * W[/tex]

Substitute [tex]L = 288 -W[/tex]

[tex]A = (288 - W) * W[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]A = 288W - W^2[/tex]

Differentiate A with respect to W

[tex]A' = 288 - 2W[/tex]

Set to 0 to calculate W

[tex]288 - 2W = 0[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]2W = 288[/tex]

Divide by 2

[tex]W = 144[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]L = 288 -W[/tex]

[tex]L = 288 - 144[/tex]

[tex]L = 144[/tex]

The probability will be the same for both clocks.

The given segment can form triangle. Therefore, the given statement is true.

A polygon has three edges as well as three vertices is called a triangle. It's one of the fundamental geometric shapes. In Euclidean geometry, each and every three points that are not collinear produce a distinct triangle and a distinct plane. In other words, every triangle was contained in a plane, and there is only single plane that encompasses that triangle.

All triangles are enclosed in a single plane if all of geometry is the Euclidean plane, however this is no longer true in higher-dimensional Euclidean spaces. Unless when otherwise specified, this article discusses triangles within Euclidean geometry, namely the Euclidean plane. The given segment can form triangle.

The known parameter are;

The amount Rebecca buys the new couch = $1,200

The amount she plans to make as monthly payment = $75

The time she plans to start paying = The month after she buys the couch

Strategy;

Define a recursive function that models the amount of money Rebecca still has to pay

Definition

A recursive function is one which has its own process as an input in the process of its implementation

A recursive function that models the amount of money Rebecca still has to pay for the couch is found as follows;

The amount left for her to pay in the present month = The amount left to pay in the previous month - $75

Let A(t + 1) represent the amount left for her to pay in the present month and let A(t) represent the amount left to pay in the previous month, we get;

A(t) = 1,200 - 75×t

A(t + 1) = 1,200 - 75×t - 75 = A(t) - 75

  4a. ∠V≅∠Y

  4b. TU ≅ WX

  5. No; no applicable postulate

  6. see below

Step-by-step explanation:

a. When you use the ASA postulate, you are claiming you have shown two angles and the side between them to be congruent. Here, you're given side TV and angle T are congruent to their counterparts, sides WY and angle W. The angle at the other end of segment TV is angle V. Its counterpart is the other end of segment WY from angle W. In order to use ASA, we must show ...

  ∠V≅∠Y

__

b. When you use the SAS postulate, you are claiming you have shown two sides and the angle between them are congruent. The angle T is between sides TV and TU. The angle congruent to that, ∠W, is between sides WY and WX. Then the missing congruence that must be shown is ...

  TU ≅ WX

__

The marked congruences are for two sides and a non-included angle. There is no SSA postulate for proving congruence. (In fact, there are two different possible triangles that have the given dimensions. This can be seen in the fact that the given angle is opposite the shortest of the given sides.)

  "No, we cannot prove they are congruent because none of the five postulates or theorems can be used."

The first statement/reason is always the list of "given" statements.

1. ∠A≅∠D, AC≅DC . . . . given

2. . . . . vertical angles are congruent

3. . . . . ASA postulate

4. . . . . CPCTC

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The reasons for each statement are inside the parentheses

1. <1 and <2 are complementary (given)

2. m<1 + m<2 = 90° (definition of complementary angles)

3. m<2 = 74° (given)

4. m<1 + 74° = 90° (Substitution)

5. m<1 = 16° (Subtraction property of equality)

This is gotten by subtracting 74° from both sides as follows:

m<1 + 74° - 74° = 90° - 74°

m<1 = 16°

Answer: $5,040 & $5,085

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of the Computer Co. stock is $5,040, and the expected value of the US Treasury bond is $5,085

The expected value of both the stocks Computer Co. and  US Treasury bond is  $5,062.5.

When the average is not of any individual rather it is an average of two or more groups or sets it is called a weighted average.

To obtain the weighted average we multiply no. of individuals by their averages and sum the next group in the previous procedure and divide them by the total no. of individuals.

The expected value is the weighted average also known as the mean.

Given, The expected value of the Computer Co. stock is $ 5,040, and the expected value of the US Treasury bond is $ 5,085.

Therefore the expected value of both stocks is,

angle 3 = 76 (vertically opposite angles)

angle 4 = 104(vertically opposite angles)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of supplementary angles and linear pairs.

Supplementary angles are two angles or arcs whose sum is 180 degrees.

A linear pair of angles are formed when two lines intersect. Two angles are said to be linear if they are adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines. The measure of a straight angle is 180 degrees.

Linear pair and supplementary angles are conveying the same meaning. However, linear pair is describing the "appearance" of the two angles as they form a line which is 180 degrees. On the other hand, supplementary angles are the properties stating two angles adds up to 180 degrees, but are not required to be together.

If you are still confused, you can refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.

Solve:

∠1 and ∠2 are linear pairs and supplementary to each other forming 180°

∠2 and ∠3 are linear pairs and supplementary to each other forming 180°

∠3 and ∠4 are linear pairs and supplementary to each other forming 180°
