probability they are all males is 0.041

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , 55% of college freshmen are women. If you pick 4 freshmen at random . We need to find What's the probability they are all males . Let's find out:

Probability to have women is 55 % i.e. 0.55 so for men is :

⇒ 1-0.55

⇒ 0.45

Now , 4 persons are randomly chosen and we need to find probability to have all 4 males that will be :

⇒ 0.45(0.45)(0.45)(0.45)

⇒ 0.45^4

⇒ 0.041

Therefore ,  probability they are all males is 0.041

What is the solution to the system of equations? Use any method. {3x+y=32x+y=7 {2x+y=7
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

x = 12  and  y = 1

Explanation:

Given equations are:

(1) ------  1 3 x − y = 3

(2)------ 2 x + y = 25

Multiply (1) by 3 to eliminate the fractional part,

(1) -------  x − 3 y = 9  ⇒ x = 9 + 3 y

-------- let this be equation (3)

Now substitute this value of  

x

from (3) in equation (2),

(2) ---------  2 ( 9 + 3 y ) + y = 25  ⇒ 18 + 6 y + y = 25  ⇒ 7 y = 25 − 18  ⇒ y = 7 7

Therefore,

y = 1

Substituting this value of  

y

in equation (3),

x = 9 + 3 × 1  

x = 9 + 3

Therefore,

x = 12

So we have the values of  

x  and  y  as,

x = 12

and  

y = 1

In triangle abc, ab=90 in, bc=80 in, and angle b measures 50°. what is the approximate perimeter of the triangle?
Arlecino [84]
You need to use the Law of Cosines:
AC² = AB² + BC² - 2·AB·BC·cos(b)
       
Therefore, you get:

AC = √(90² + 80² - 2·90·80·cos(50)
      =√5243.86
      = 72.4 in

Now you can sum up all the sides in order to find the perimeter:

AB + BC + AC = 90 + 80 + 72.4 = 242.4 in

The correct answer is A) 242.4 in
