48 is 60% of what number? A. 80 B. 28.8 C. 8 D. 0.8

1 answer:

7 0

48 is 60% of 80

Convert your percentage into a decimal:
$\frac{60}{100} =0.6$

Divide 48 by the decimal:
$48 \div 0.6 = 80$

David and Lacey are 2000 feet apart on a coastline. They each look at the same boat in the water. The angle between the coastlin

Ulleksa [173]

By using the given distances and directions, we have;

Part A: 1083.5 feet

Part B: 1921.37 feet

Part C: 58.05°

<h3>How can the distances and directions be calculated?</h3>

The distance between David and Lacey = 2000 feet

David's angle to the boat = 70°

Lacey's angle to the boat = 32°

Part A

The distance of the boat from David is found as follows;

Imaginary lines drawn from the boat to David and then to Lacey form a triangle.

In the triangle, let A = 70°

B = 32°

Therefore by the sum of angles in a triangle, we have;

C = 180° - (70° + 32°) = 78°

By using sine rule we have;

$\frac{a}{sin(A)} = \frac{b}{sin( B )} = \frac{c}{sin(C)}$

David's distance from the boat, b, is therefore;

$\frac{b}{sin( 32 )} = \frac{2000}{sin(78)}$

The angle subtended by the coastline, C, is therefore;

$b = \frac{2000}{sin(78)} \times sin( 32 ) = 1083.5$

David's distance from the boat is 1083.5 feet

Part B

The distance between the boat and Lacey is found as follows;

$\mathbf{ \frac{a}{sin( 70)} }= \frac{2000}{sin(78)}$

$a = \frac{2000}{sin(78)} \times sin( 70 ) = 1921.37$

Lacey's distance from the boat is 1921.37 feet

Part C

When b = 1200 feet, we have;

Finding the vertical distance of the boat from the coastline, we have;

1083.5 × sin(70) = 1018.17

We have;

$\frac{1200}{sin(90)} = \frac{1018.17}{sin( B' )}$

${sin( B' )} = \frac{sin(90)}{1200} \times 1018.17$

The angle between the coastline and his view to the boat, B', is therefore;

B' = arcsine (1018.17÷1200) = 58.05°

A class consists of 55% boys and 45% girls. It is observed that 25% of the class are boys and scored an A on the test, and 35% o

Julli [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of event A on the condition of event B is:

P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B)

P(scored an A | girl) = P(scored an A and girl) / P(girl)

P(scored an A | girl) = 0.35 / 0.45

P(scored an A | girl) = 0.778

The probability that a randomly selected girl also scored an A is 77.8%.
