The probability of landing a star is 1/12 and when you spin it again because nothing has changed it is still 1/12 to find the probability you would multiply them. So 1/12 x 1/12 = 1/144
the probability of landing on a star two consecutive times is a 1/144 chance.

The position of an open-water swimmer is shown in the graph. The shortest route to the shoreline is one that is perpendicular to
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To define the perpendicular line we need to first know the slope of the reference line graphed.

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) we have points (0,5) and (2,1)

m=(1-5)/(2-0)

m=-4/2

m=-2

For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must satisfy

m1m2=-1, we have a line with a slope of -2 so

-2m=-1

m=1/2, so our perpendicular line is so far

y=x/2+b, it must have point (3,2) so we can solve for b

2=3/2+b

b=1/2, so the swimmer will travel along the line

y=x/2+1/2

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
pychu [463]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation.

First I would use sine to find x's value. So ----> sin(30) = 7/x ----> x sin(30) = 7 ----> x = 7/sin(30) = 14.

You Can also find that x is equal to 14 by applying the 30, 60, 90, triangle rule. Becuase '7' opposes the 30 degree angle it is 1/2 the hypotenuse, if thats the case just multiply the 7 by 2 and you have the hypotenuse length.
