check the picture below on the top side.


we know that x = 4 = b, therefore,  using the 30-60-90 rule, h = 4√3, and DC = 4+8+4 = 16.


\bf \textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\
A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~
\begin{cases}
a,b=\stackrel{bases}{parallel~sides}\\
h=height\\[-0.5em]
\hrulefill\\
a=8\\
b=\stackrel{DC}{16}\\
h=4\sqrt{3}
\end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{4\sqrt{3}(8+16)}{2}
\\\\\\
A=2\sqrt{3}(24)\implies \boxed{A=48\sqrt{3}}


now, check the picture below on the bottom side.


since we know x = 9, then b = 9, therefore DC = 9+6+9 = 24, and h = b = 9.


\bf \textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\
A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~
\begin{cases}
a,b=\stackrel{bases}{parallel~sides}\\
h=height\\[-0.5em]
\hrulefill\\
a=6\\
b=\stackrel{DC}{24}\\
h=9
\end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{9(6+24)}{2}
\\\\\\
A=\cfrac{9(30)}{2}\implies \boxed{A=135}

Answer:

Factors are (x-1), (x+1), and (x+2).

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x^{3}+2x^{2} -x-2\\g(x)=(x - 1) (x + 1) (x + 2)

Consider an experiment where two 6-sided dice are rolled. We can describe the ordered sample space as below where the first coor
agasfer [191]

Answer:

  • E = { (4,1) , (3,2) , (2,3) , (1,4) }
  • P(E)=\frac{1}{9}
  • P(F|E)=\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start writing the sample space for this experiment :

S= { (1,1) , (1,2) , (1,3) , (1,4) , (1,5) , (1,6) , (2,1) , (2,2) , (2,3) , (2,4) , (2,5) , (2,6) , (3,1) , (3,2) , (3,3) , (3,4) , (3,5) , (3,6) , (4,1) , (4,2) , (4,3) , (4,4) , (4,5) , (4,6) , (5,1) , (5,2) , (5,3) , (5,4) , (5,5) , (5,6) , (6,1) , (6,2) , (6,3) , (6,4) , (6,5) , (6,6) }

Let's also define the event E ⇒

E : '' The sum of the two dice is 5 ''

We can describe the event by listing all the favorables cases from S ⇒

E = { (4,1) , (3,2) , (2,3) , (1,4) }

In order to calculate P(E) we are going to divide all the cases favorables to E over the total cases from S. We can do this because all 36 of these possible outcomes from S are equally likely. ⇒

P(E)=\frac{4}{36}=\frac{1}{9} ⇒

P(E)=\frac{1}{9}

Finally we are going to define the event F ⇒

F : '' The number of the first die is exactly 1 more than the number on the second die ''

⇒

F = { (2,1) , (3,2) , (4,3) , (5,4) , (6,5) }

Now given two events A and B ⇒

P ( A ∩ B ) = P(A,B)

We define the conditional probability as

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A,B)}{P(B)} with P(B)>0

We need to find P(F|E) therefore we can apply the conditional probability equation :

P(F|E)=\frac{P(F,E)}{P(E)}   (I)

We calculate P(E)=\frac{1}{9} at the beginning of the question. We only need P(F,E).

Looking at the sets E and F we find that (3,2) is the unique result which is in both sets. Therefore is 1 result over the 36 possible results. ⇒

P(F,E)=\frac{1}{36}

Replacing both probabilities calculated in (I) :

P(F|E)=\frac{P(F,E)}{P(E)}=\frac{\frac{1}{36}}{\frac{1}{9}}=\frac{1}{4}=0.25

We find out that P(F|E)=\frac{1}{4}=0.25
