A nursery plants a new tree and attaches a guy wire to help support the tree while its roots take hold. An eight foot wire is attached to the tree and to a stake in the ground. From the stake in the ground the angle of elevation of the connection with the tree is 42º. Find to the nearest tenth of a foot, the height of the connection point on the tree.

How many quarts of a 50% solution of acid must be added to 20 quarts of a 20% solution of acid in order to get a 40% solution of acid?

The weibull distribution is widely used in statistical problems relating to aging of solid insulating materials subjected to aging and stress. use this distribution as a model for time (in hours) to failure of solid insulating specimens subjected to ac voltage. the values of the parameters depend on the voltage and temperature; suppose α = 2.5 and β = 190. (a) what is the probability that a specimen's lifetime is at most 250? less than 250? more than 300? (round your answers to four decimal places.) at most 250 less than 250 more than 300 (b) what is the probability that a specimen's lifetime is between 100 and 250? (round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) what value is such that exactly 50% of all specimens have lifetimes exceeding that value? (round your answer to three decimal places.) hr
