Answer:

The ratio  \frac{3}{4} corresponds to the tangent of ∠I.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s revisit the trigonometric ratios:

  • sin Ф =  \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
  • cos Ф =  \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}
  • tan Ф =  \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

For triangle HIJ

∵ m∠J = 90°

- The hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle.

So, HI is the hypotenuse.

∵ HJ = 3 units

∵ IH = 5 units

- We’ll apply the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for HJ.

∵ (HJ)² + (IJ)² = (IH)²

∴ 3² + (IJ)² = 5²

∴ 9 + (IJ)² = 25

- Subtract 9 from both sides.

∴ (IJ)² = 16

- Taking the square root on both sides gives:

∴ IJ = 4 units

To determine the tangent of ∠I, identify the sides that are opposite and adjacent to it.

∵ HJ is opposite to ∠I

∵ IJ is adjacent to ∠I

- Utilizing the rule of tan above:

∴ tan(∠I) = \frac{HJ}{IJ}

∴ tan(∠I) = \frac{3}{4}

The ratio \frac{3}{4} indicates the tangent of ∠I.

zzz [12365]
To determine the time interval δt, we must subtract the starting time from the ending time. In this scenario, the first value in the coordinates signifies time:

δt=50 - 0
δt= 50s

The time interval is 50s.

The table shows the estimated number of lines of code written by computer programmers per hour when x people are working.
Zina [12379]

Answer:

Therefore, the data is best represented by:

y=26.9x-1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a table indicating the estimated lines of code produced by computer programmers per hour when x individuals are engaged.

The question asks which model accurately reflects this data.

To determine this, we will substitute the values of x into each function to see which one accurately produces the corresponding y (f(x)) values provided in the table:

We are presented with four functions, which are:

A)

y = 47(1.191)^x

B)

y=34\times (1.204)^x

C)

y=26.9x-1.3

D)

y=27x-4

We'll create a table displaying these values at various x levels.

x                  A                 B                C               D

2              66.66          49.3            52.5           50

4             94.57            71.44           106.3         104  

6             134.14           103.57         160.1          158

8             190.27          150.14          213.9         212

10           269.91           217.64         267.7         266

12           382.85          315.5           321.5          320.

Thus, the function that suitably represents the data is:

Option C.

y=26.9x-1.3

The idle time for taxi drivers in a day are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and standard deviation. If a ra
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

172-2.51\frac{16}{\sqrt{23}}=163.626    

172+2.51\frac{16}{\sqrt{23}}=180.374

Hence, in this case, the 98% confidence interval would be (163.626;180.374)    

Step-by-step breakdown:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval represents a range that is likely to encompass a population value within a specific confidence level, typically expressed as a percentage whereby a population mean falls between an upper and lower limit.

The margin of errorindicates the span of values surrounding the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

A normal distributionillustrates a probability distribution that is symmetrical around the mean, signifying that values near the mean occur more frequently than those farther away from it.

\bar X=172 denote the sample mean

\mu population mean (the variable of interest)

s=16 signifies the sample standard deviation

n=23 represents the sample size  

The solution to the query

The equation for the confidence interval of the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

To determine the critical value t_{\alpha/2}, we first need to calculate the degrees of freedom, which is expressed as:

df=n-1=23-1=22

Since the confidence level is 0.98 or 98%, we find the value of \alpha=0.02 and \alpha/2 =0.01 using tools like Excel or a calculator, where the Excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.01,22)". This yields t_{\alpha/2}=2.51

Having all components ready, we can substitute into formula (1):

172-2.51\frac{16}{\sqrt{23}}=163.626    

172+2.51\frac{16}{\sqrt{23}}=180.374

Thus, for this case, the 98% confidence interval will be (163.626;180.374)

Betsy can clean a b of the house in an hour. How long will it take her to clean the whole house?
AnnZ [12381]
To determine the total time taken for house cleaning is necessary. Given that Betsy cleans a portion of the house, which takes her 1 hour, we want to find out how long it takes her to clean the entire house. By applying the unitary method, we see that if she cleans part of the house in 1 hour, we can calculate the time required for 1 whole house.

Which transformations can be used to carry ABCD onto itself? The point of rotation is (3, 2). Check all that apply.
Leona [12618]

Both A and B.

This is due to the fact that X=3 cleanly divides the rectangle into two equal halves, causing any reflection to resemble the original shape.

Additionally, any shape with two lines of symmetry, when rotated 180 degrees, will align with one of the axes of symmetry and appear the same as the original shape.
