Answer:

The formula outlining the lateral surface area (LSA) of a right cone is:

LSA = π x r x l

where: r denotes the radius, and l is the slant height

If NASA intends to apply two coats of sealant, the area that requires painting is: 2 x LSA = 2 x π x r x l

AnnZ [12381]

answer:

Detailed explanation:

Option A: $1,565 monthly over 72 months

The total comes to $112,680

Option B: $1,012 each month for 10 years,

which is the same as 120 months

Thus, the total amount received is 1012×120

equaling $121,440.

Option C:

Receive $100,000 in a single payment.

All the details presented are accurate.

However,

As the individual has no preference whether to take the money personally or let it go to an heir, we can disregard the lump sum payment option of $100,000.

Furthermore, as they are willing to wait and are indifferent about who benefits from the insurance payout, the 72-month option can also be overlooked.

Therefore, choosing the second option is advisable since it provides the highest total and the most payments over time.

Waiting for ten years will yield $121,440.

Island A is 150 miles from island B. A ship captain travels 240 miles from island A and then finds that he is off course and 200
babunello [11817]
Applying the cosine law, we can determine:

<span>c</span>²<span> = a</span>²<span> + b</span>²<span> - 2abcos(C) </span>
<span>where: </span>
<span>a, b, and c represent the sides of the triangle and C indicates the angle opposite to side c</span>

<span>Thus, we have:</span>
<span>150</span>²<span> = 240</span>²<span> + 200</span>²<span> - 2(240)(200)cos(C) </span>

<span>Now we solve for C</span>

<span>22,500 = 57,600 + 40,000 - 96,000cos(C) </span>
<span>22,500 - 57,600 - 40,000 = -96,000cos(C) 
</span>-75,100=-96,000cos (C)
cos (C)=0.7822916
C=arc cos(0.7822916)→ C=38.53°

<span>Therefore, the direction the captain should head towards island B is
180 - 38.53 </span><span>= 141.47 degrees</span>

Zina [12379]

Response:

The problem is summarized in the following explanation segment.

Detailed explanation:

The estimate of the slots or positions lost due to simultaneous transmission attempts can be calculated as follows:

Evaluating the likelihood of transmitting gives us "p".

When considering two or more attempts, we arrive at

Fraction of slots wasted,

= [1-no \ attempt \ probability-first \ attempt \ probability-second \ attempt \ probability+...]

Substituting the values yields

= 1-no \ attempt \ probability-[N\times P\times probability \ of \ attempts]

= 1-(1-P)^{N}-N[P(1-P)^{N}]

Thus, the answer appears to be correct.
