The vertices of a triangle are A(7, 5), B(4, 2), and C(9, 2)

First we need to find the length of each side of the triangle using Distance formula, d = \sqrt{(x1 - x2)^2 + (y1 - y2)^2}

Length of side AB, c= \sqrt{(7-4)^2 + (5-2)^2}

= \sqrt{(3)^2 + (3)^2}

= \sqrt{9+9}

= \sqrt{18}

Length of side BC, a= \sqrt{(4-9)^2 +(2-2)^2}

= \sqrt{(-5)^2 + 0}

= \sqrt{25}

= 5

Length of the side AC, b = \sqrt{(7-9)^2 +(5-2)^2}

= \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (3)^2}

= \sqrt{4+ 9} = \sqrt{13}

Cos B = \frac{a^2 + c^2 -b^2}{2ac}

Cos B = \frac{(5)^2 + (\sqrt{18})^2 - (\sqrt{13})^2}{2*5*\sqrt{18}}

Cos B = \frac{25+18-13}{10\sqrt{18}}

Cos B= \frac{30}{10\sqrt{18}}

Cos B = \frac{3}{\sqrt{18}}  = \frac{3}{3\sqrt{2}}  = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}

By taking Inverse Cosine function,

B= Cos⁻¹ (\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})

B= 45°

The measure of angle ABC is 45°

A spinner has 10 equal sections numbered 1 through 10. What is the probability of
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. 1/10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a spinner has 10 equal sections numbered 1 through 10, to determine what is the probability of landing on the 6, the following calculation must be performed:

6 = 1 side only

10 = 10 options

1/10 = X

Therefore, the probability of the spinner landing on the 6 is 1/10.

A certain large manufacturing facility produces 20,000 parts each week. The manager of the facility estimates that about 1% of t
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

198 is the variance for the number of defective parts made each week.      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Number of parts produced each week =  20,000

Percentage of defective parts = 1%

We have to calculate the variance for the number of defective parts made each week.

We treat defective part as a success.

P(Defective part) = 1% = 0.01

p = 0.01

Then the number defective parts follows a binomial distribution .

Formula for variance =

\sigma^2 = np(1-p) = 20000(0.01)(1-0.01) = 198

Thus, 198 is the variance for the number of defective parts made each week.
