The tree is 25 feet tall. Given the height of the stick and the shadow it cast, the angle formed by the sun and the stick's height can be obtained by taking the Inverse Tangent of 3/5. This is equal to 30.93. This angle is equal to the angle formed by the sun and the tree's height. Using the tangent formula, Tan (30.93)=tree's shadow (15 ft)/ height of the tree, giving the answer 25 feet.
Answer:
The gambler's fallacy, also known as the Monte Carlo fallacy or the fallacy of the maturity of chances, is the erroneous belief that if a particular event occurs more frequently than normal during the past it is less likely to happen in the future (or vice versa), when it has otherwise been established that the probability of such events does not depend on what has happened in the past. Such events, having the quality of historical independence, are referred to as statistically independent. The fallacy is commonly associated with gambling, where it may be believed, for example, that the next dice roll is more than usually likely to be six because there have recently been fewer than the usual number of sixes.
The term "Monte Carlo fallacy" originates from the best known example of the phenomenon, which occurred in the Monte Carlo Casino in 1913.[1]
Answer:
9 is your answer for x.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS is the order of operations, & =
Parenthesis
Exponent (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
First, subtract 13 & 8x from both sides:
2x (-8x) + 13 (-13) = 8x (-8x) - 41 (-13)
2x - 8x = -41 - 13
Simplify. Combine like terms:
-6x = -54
Isolate the variable, x. Divide -6 from both sides:
(-6x)/-6 = (-54)/-6
x = (-54)/(-6)
x = 9
x = 9 is your answer.

Answer:
Alright, the answer to the equation -52+3= -49
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't know how the heck Marcus and Jeremy got -22 and 28 but both are wrong. If there were a picture so I could see their work, I would be able to figure it out.
Anyways, The math is:
-52 + 3 which is pretty much 52-3 and then the answer has a negative sign.
-52 goes up 3 because technically the negative sign is down. Counting up 3 from 52 equals -49.
This is an isosceles triangle, so both legs are of length 5√2.
Use the Pyth. Thm. to find the length of the hypotenuse. Square 5√2 and double the result: 25(2) = 50; twice 50 is 100. The square of the length of the hyp. is 100, and so the length of the hyp is sqrt(100), or 10 (answer).
