Can somone let me know why I am not able to copy/paste the formula from n8 to cells n9 to 16 please?
Enter a formula in cell N8 using the VLOOKUP function to find an exact match for the department code. Look up the department code (cell N7) using an absolute reference, search the employee table data (the range B7:K17) using absolute references, and return the department name (the 2nd column).
Copy the formula in cell N8 to the range N9:N16, pasting the formula only, and then edit the copied formulas to return the value from the column indicated by the label in column M.
Write a program that asks the user for an angle, entered in degrees. The program should then display the sine, cosine, and tangent of the angle. (Use the sin, cos, and tan library functions to determine these values.) You must convert the angle into radians (angle * 3.14/180)

- A manager is simulating the number of times a machine operator stops a machine to make adjustments. After careful study the manager found that the number of stops ranged from one to five per cycle and that each number of stops was equally likely. Using the random numbers 0.17 and 0.47 (in that order), determine how many stops for adjustments each of the next two cycles will have. The first cycle will have stops and the second cycle will have stops.arrow_forwardNo chatgpt used i will give 5 upvotes typing pleasearrow_forwardY3arrow_forward
