Calculate the length b to two decimal places.
Andrej [43]

Answer:

B. 21.64

Step-by-step explanation:        

We have been given a triangle and we are asked to find the length of AC (b).

We will use law of cosines to find the length of side AC.

c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}-2ab \text{ cos }\theta

Upon substituting our given values in the formula we will get,

(AC)^{2}=15^{2}+12^{2}-2\times 15\times 12 \text{ cos}(106)  

(AC)^{2}=225+144-360\text{ cos}(106)      

(AC)^{2}=369-360(-0.275637355817)      

(AC)^{2}=369+99.22944809412    

(AC)^{2}=468.22944809412

Upon taking square root of both sides of our equation we will be get,

AC=\sqrt{468.22944809412}

AC=21.6386101238993629\approx 21.64  

Therefore, the length of b is 21.64 and option B is the correct choice.

Marcus randomly draws tokens from a bag containing 10 blue tokens, 8 green tokens, and 12 red tokens. The first draw is a green
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: 1. D) 30

2. A) 8

3. B) 4/15

4. A)  2/9

5.D) 64%

Step-by-step explanation:    

1. Since, here the tokens from a bag containing 10 blue tokens, 8 green tokens, and 12 red tokens. The first draw is a green token.

Thus, the total token = 10 blue tokens+ 8 green tokens+ 12 red tokens = 30 token

Therefore, If the first draw is a green token, Then total outcomes that will possible = 30.

2. Since, getting green is an event with 8 favorable outcomes.

Therefore,  If the first draw is a green token, Then total favorable outcomes that will possible = 8.

3. The possibility of getting green in first drawn, P(G) = \frac{8_C_1}{30_C_1}

P(G) =  \frac{8}{30} = \frac{4}{15}

4. Here, Number of red socks= 5

Number of white socks = 2 and Number of  blue socks=3

Therefore total socks = 10

⇒ Probability of picking a pair of red socks,

P(R)= \frac{5_C_2}{10_C_2} = \frac{10}{45}

⇒ P(R)= 2/9

5. Since, here coin is flipped 50 times and lands on heads 32 times.

Therefore, experimental probability that coin will land on heads on the next flip = (total times in which head appears/ total number of experiments) × 100 = (32/50)×100=64%
