Triangle U S T is shown. Angle U S T is 100 degrees. The length of U S is 9, the length of S T is 10, and the length of U T is s

.
Which equation correctly uses the law of cosines to solve for the length s?

92 = s2 + 102 – 2(s)(10)cos(100°)
9 = s + 10 – 2(s)(10)cos(100°)
102 = s2 + 100 – 2(s)(10)cos(100°)
s2 = 92 + 102 – 2(9)(10)cos(100°)

By solving through law of cosines the length s can be written as s^{2} =9^{2} +10^{2} -2*9*10cos(100).

Given the length of US is 9, the length of ST is 10 and the length of UT is s and the angle UST is 100 degrees.

According to law of cosines a length can be written as c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2} -2abcos g

where c is the side opposite to the given angle and a and b are other sides , g is the angle given.

s^{2} =9^{2} +10^{2} -2*9*10cos(100)

where s is the length of the side opposite to the angle given, the length of other sides are 9 and 10 where the angle is 100.

Hence the fourth option is correct which is s^{2} =9^{2} +10^{2} -2*9*10cos(100).

Purchasing A regional survey found that 70% of all families who indicated an intention to buy a new car bought a new car within
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

If a family chosen at random bought a car, we need to find the probability that the family had not previously indicated an intention to buy a car = P(I'|B) = 0.3362

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the event that a family that intends to buy a car be I

Let the event that a family does not intend to buy a car be I'

Let the event that a family buys a car in those 3 months be B

Let the event that a family does not buy a car in those 3 months be B'

Given,

P(B|I) = 0.70

P(B|I') = 0.10

P(I) = 0.22

P(I') = 1 - P(I) = 1 - 0.22 = 0.78

If a family chosen at random bought a car, we need to find the probability that the family had not previously indicated an intention to buy a car = P(I'|B)

The conditional probability P(A|B), is given as

P(A|B) = P(A n B) ÷ P(B)

So,

P(B|I) = P(B n I) ÷ P(I)

P(B n I) = P(B|I) × P(I) = 0.70 × 0.22 = 0.154

P(B|I') = P(B n I') ÷ P(I')

P(B n I') = P(B|I') × P(I') = 0.10 × 0.78 = 0.078

P(B) = P(B n I) + P(B n I') = 0.154 + 0.078 = 0.232

P(B') = 1 - 0.232 = 0.768

P(I'|B) = P(B n I') ÷ P(B)

= 0.078 ÷ 0.232 = 0.3362

Hope this Helps!!!

This is urgent, please answer!
Alex17521 [72]

1/2 = 0.5

12 & 1/2 = 12 + 1/2 = 12 + 0.5 = 12.5

4 & 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 = 4 + 0.5 = 4.5

Refer to the diagram below. Note how I divided the figure into two rectangles.

The larger red rectangle is 12.5 feet by 10 feet. It has area 12.5*10 = 125 square feet.

The smaller blue rectangle has dimensions 4.5 feet by 5 feet (the 5 is from 15-10 = 5), so it has area 4.5*5 = 22.5 square feet

Now add up those individual areas to get the total area

125+22.5 = 147.5

Then convert that to a mixed number

147.5 = 147 + 0.5 = 147 + 1/2 = 147 & 1/2

<h3>The correct area is 147 & 1/2 feet</h3>

Debora [2.8K]
There are a total of 16 movies to choose from and 6 of them are comedy. This means that you have a 38% of choosing comedy. But the chances of you not choosing comedy is 62%. And since your friend is also choosing, the chance of neither of you not choosing is cut in half.

So, the final answer of neither of you choosing comedy is 31%
