I don't know about the first one but the second one is 34.9°. It would be that because are right angles add up to 90° and if you subract 55.1 and 90 it would equal 34.9. But this rule only works on right angles.
Answer: x=-3 y=7.
Step-by-step explanation:


Since the dice are fair and the rolling are independent, each single outcome has probability 1/15. Every time we choose

We have
and
, because the dice are fair.
Now we use the assumption of independence to claim that

Now, we simply have to count in how many ways we can obtain every possible outcome for the sum. Consider the attached table: we can see that we can obtain:
- 2 in a unique way (1+1)
- 3 in two possible ways (1+2, 2+1)
- 4 in three possible ways
- 5 in three possible ways
- 6 in three possible ways
- 7 in two possible ways
- 8 in a unique way
This implies that the probabilities of the outcomes of
are the number of possible ways divided by 15: we can obtain 2 and 8 with probability 1/15, 3 and 7 with probability 2/15, and 4, 5 and 6 with probabilities 3/15=1/5
Answer:
The portion of the volume of the cup that is filled with water is 
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the volume of the paper water cup
The volume of the cone is equal to

we have


substitute


step 2
If the cup is filled with water to half its height, find out what portion of the volume of the cup is filled with water
Remember that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube
In this problem the similar cone has half the height of the complete cone
so
The scale factor is equal to 1/2
therefore
The volume of the cup that is filled with water is equal to the volume of the complete cup by the scale factor elevated to the cube

therefore
The portion of the volume of the cup that is filled with water is
