Using the probability concept, it is found that since the number of red sweets would be a decimal number, the probability cannot be \dfrac{7}{10}

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

In this problem:

  • In total, there are 8 + n sweets in the bag.
  • Of those, n are red.

The probability of red is:

p=\dfrac{n}{n+8}

Supposing, we solve for n:

\dfrac{n}{n+8} = \dfrac{7}{10}

10n = 7n + 56

3n = 56

n  =  56 / 3

n  =  18.67

Since the number of red sweets would be a decimal number, the probability cannot be 7 / 10

Use slope to determine if lines PQ and RS are parallel, perpendicular, or neither P(-3,14) q(2,-1) r(4,8) s(-2,-10)
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of PQ is -3.

The slope of RS is 3.

Parallel lines have the same slope. The slopes for perpendicular lines are the opposite of the reciprocal. PQ and RS are intersecting lines, but not parallel or perpendicular.

If cos θ = 5/13, use the Pythagorean Identity to find sin θ.
emmainna [20.7K]
Sin θ=sqrt(1-<span>cos^2 θ)
</span>sin θ=sqrt[1-(5/13)^2]
sin θ=sqrt[1-(5)^2/(13)^2]
sin θ=sqrt[1-25/169]
sin θ=sqrt[(169-25)/169]
sin θ=sqrt(144/169)
sin θ=sqrt(144)/sqrt(169)
sin θ=12/13

Answer: Second option 12/13
