Θ

arcsin

≈

∘
Explanation:
We view the ramp as a right triangle. The hypotenuse is 4.2 and the vertical side .7, which is opposite the angle
θ
we seek.

I'm going to finish the problem but I'll note if we were actually building the ramp we don't need to know the angle; this sine is sufficient.
θ
=
arcsin
(

)
θ
≈
10

which I think is a pretty steep ramp for a wheelchair.
There will be another inverse sine that is the supplementary angle, around
170
∘
, but we can rule that out as a value for a ramp wedge angle.

Simple Algebra problem. Includes the x and y axis. Also need help finding the perimeter.
Leona [35]

Answer:

31.5cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a triangle =1/2 b h

b= 7cm

h=9cm

1/2×7×9

= 1/2×63

= 31.5cm²

hypotenuse is unknown so,

c²=a²+b²

c²= 7² + 9²

= 49 + 81

c²= 130

c= 11.4cm

perimeter= 7 +9+11.4

=27.4cm

pls note that no unit was stated

A quiz in statistics course has four multiple-choice questions, each with five possible answers. A passing grade is three or mor
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

a) 0.0016

b) 0.0224

Step-by-step explanation:

If every question has 5 possible answers, the probability of getting the correct answer by guessing would be 0.20. The probability of getting an incorrect answer would be 0.80.

a)Find the probability she lucks out and answers all four questions correctly.

To do this, Allison would have to guess right the first, second, third AND fourth answers. Therefore, we have to multiply the probabilities:

0.20 x 0.20 x 0.20 x 0.20 = 0.0016

The probability that she answers all 4 questions correctly is 0.0016.

b) Find the probability that she passes the quiz.

To pass the quiz, she has to have three OR 4 correct answers:

  1. The probability that she has 3 correct answers is: 0.20 x 0.20 x 0.20 x 0.80 (since she has to have 1 correct answer and 1 incorrect one) = .0064.
  2. We already calculated the probability that she guesses 4 answers correctly: 0.0016.

Now, we have to sum up these two scenarios:

0.0064 + 0.016 = 0.0224.

Thus, the probability that she passes the quiz is 0.0224
