Complete Question

In a genetic experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 436 green peas and 171 yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the value of 3/4 that was expected? The probability of getting a green pea is approximately: Is the probability reasonably close to 3/4?

Answer:

The  probability is  P(g) =0.72

Yes the result is reasonably close

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  number of  of  green peas is  g =  436

     The number of yellow peas is  y  = 171

   The sample size is  n  =  171 +  436 =  607

The probability of getting an offspring pea that is green is mathematically represented as

       P(g) = \frac{g}{n}

        P(g) = \frac{436}{607}

        P(g) =0.72

Comparing  P(g) =0.72  to   \frac{3}{4}  =  0.75 we see that the result is reasonably close

Rationalise the denominator of: (√3 + √2)/(√3-√2) = ?<br>​
krok68 [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Given</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

(√3+√2)/(√3-√2)

<h3><u>To </u><u>find</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

<u>Rationalised</u><u> form</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>?</u>

<h3><u>Solution</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

We have,

(√3+√2)/(√3-√2)

The denominator = √3-√2

The Rationalising factor of √3-√2 is √3+√2

On Rationalising the denominator then

=>[(√3+√2)/(√3-√2)]×[(√3+√2)/(√3+√2)]

=>[(√3+√2)(√3+√2)]×[(√3-√2)(√3+√2)]

=>(√3+√2)²/[(√3-√2)(√3+√2)]

=> (√3+√2)²/[(√3)²-(√2)²]

Since (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b²

Where , a = √3 and b = √2

=> (√3+√2)²/(3-2)

=> (√3-√2)²/1

=> (√3+√2)²

=> (√3)²+2(√3)(√2)+(√2)²

Since , (a+b)² = a²+2ab+b²

Where , a = √3 and b = √2

=> 3+2√6+2

=> 5+2√6

<h3><u>Answer:-</u></h3>

The rationalised form of (√3+√2)/(√3-√2) is 3+2√6+2.

<h3><u>Used formulae:-</u></h3>

→ (a+b)² = a²+2ab+b²

→ (a-b)² = a²-2ab+b²

→ (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b²

→ The Rationalising factor of √a-√b is √a+√b

A fishing lodge wants to build a new boat ramp. The slope of the ramp must be 8° to the horizontal. The total height of the bank
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The length of the sloping section of the ramp is 20.12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

the total height of the bank, h = 2.8 m

The slope of the ramp must be 8° to the horizontal, i.e, θ = 8°

Let the length of the sloping section = L

let the horizontal distance between the height of the bank and sloping section = b

Thus, h, L and b forms three sides of a right angled-triangle, with L as the hypotenuse side, h  (height of the triangle) as the opposite side and b  (base of the triangle) as the adjacent side.

We determine L by applying the following formula;

Sinθ = opposite / hypotenuse

Sin θ = h / L

L = h / Sin θ

L = 2.8 / Sin 8

L = 2.8 / 0.13917

L = 20.12 m

Therefore, the length of the sloping section of the ramp is 20.12 m

Yeah I don’t get this
umka2103 [35]

using pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(12x)^2 + (16x)^2 = 10^2

square each term

144x^2 + 256x^2 = 100

combine like terms

400 x^2 = 100


divide by 400 on each side

x^2 = 1/4

take the square root on each side

x = 1/2


Answer:  x=1/2
