On which triangle can the law of cosines be applied once to find an unknown angle measure? Law of cosines: a2 = b2 + c2 – 2bccos
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

C) Angle X Y W is 76 degrees. The length of X Y is 5, the length of W Y is 10, and the length of W X is y.

Step-by-step explanation:

On which triangle can the law of cosines be applied once to find an unknown angle measure?

The Law of cosines is given as:

a² = b² + c² - 2bccos(A)

From the options given above, the correct option is Option C

C) Angle X Y W is 76 degrees. The length of X Y is 5, the length of W Y is 10, and the length of W X is y.

This is because:

Law of Cosines helps us to find an unknown side of a triangle when we are given 2 known sides and 1 angle.

In the above question, we are given angle 76 degree, and the length of two sides: The length of X Y is 5, the length of W Y is 10

The unknown side is the length of W X which is represented as y.

Hence, Option C is the correct option.

Sophie and Simon are peeling a pile of potatoes for lunch in the cafeteria. Sophie can peel all the potatoes by herself in 45 mi
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Short Answer: 18 minutes
Remark

The answer to this problem is less than the smallest time of the two people working together. that fact lets out C and D (38 minutes and 75 minutes). Now you have to choose 15 minutes and 18 minutes. There's a method. No guessing needed.

Givens
Let the time for Sophie = S
Let the time for Simon = M
Let the job to completion = 1 
S = 45 minutes
M = 30 minutes

Step One
Convert minutes to hours.
45 minutes = 45 / 60 = 3/4 hour = 0.75 hour
30 minutes = 30 / 60 = 1/2 hour = 0.50 hour

Step Two
Set up the Equation
The formula is a form of job / hour.
Let the time = t that they both have to work

job = 1 in these problems.
1/S + 1/M = 1/t
1/0.75 + 1/0.5 = 1/t

Solve
1 ÷ 0.75 = 1.33333
1 ÷ 0.5 = 2

1.3333 + 2 = 3.33333 
3.3333 = 1 / t                    Multlply both sides by t
3.3333*t = 1
t = 1 / 3.333333333
t = 0.3 of an hour


1 hour = 60 minutes
0.3 hours = x              Cross Multiply
x = 60 * 0.3
x = 18 minutes

Answer working together it took them 18 minutes  <<<<<

The Slow Ball Challenge or The Fast Ball Challenge.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Fast ball challenge

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Slow Ball Challenge

Pitches = 7

P(Hit) = 80\%

Win = \$60

Lost = \$10

Fast Ball Challenge

Pitches = 3

P(Hit) = 70\%

Win = \$60

Lost = \$10

Required

Which should he choose?

To do this, we simply calculate the expected earnings of both.

Considering the slow ball challenge

First, we calculate the binomial probability that he hits all 7 pitches

P(x) =^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}

Where

n = 7 --- pitches

x = 7 --- all hits

p = 80\% = 0.80 --- probability of hit

So, we have:

P(x) =^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}

P(7) =^7C_7 * 0.80^7 * (1 - 0.80)^{7 - 7}

P(7) =1 * 0.80^7 * (1 - 0.80)^0

P(7) =1 * 0.80^7 * 0.20^0

Using a calculator:

P(7) =0.2097152 --- This is the probability that he wins

i.e.

P(Win) =0.2097152

The probability that he lose is:

P(Lose) = 1 - P(Win) ---- Complement rule

P(Lose) = 1 -0.2097152

P(Lose) = 0.7902848

The expected value is then calculated as:

Expected = P(Win) * Win + P(Lose) * Lose

Expected = 0.2097152 * \$60 + 0.7902848 * \$10

Using a calculator, we have:

Expected = \$20.48576

Considering the fast ball challenge

First, we calculate the binomial probability that he hits all 3 pitches

P(x) =^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}

Where

n = 3 --- pitches

x = 3 --- all hits

p = 70\% = 0.70 --- probability of hit

So, we have:

P(3) =^3C_3 * 0.70^3 * (1 - 0.70)^{3 - 3}

P(3) =1 * 0.70^3 * (1 - 0.70)^0

P(3) =1 * 0.70^3 * 0.30^0

Using a calculator:

P(3) =0.343 --- This is the probability that he wins

i.e.

P(Win) =0.343

The probability that he lose is:

P(Lose) = 1 - P(Win) ---- Complement rule

P(Lose) = 1 - 0.343

P(Lose) = 0.657

The expected value is then calculated as:

Expected = P(Win) * Win + P(Lose) * Lose

Expected = 0.343 * \$60 + 0.657 * \$10

Using a calculator, we have:

Expected = \$27.15

So, we have:

Expected = \$20.48576 -- Slow ball

Expected = \$27.15 --- Fast ball

<em>The expected earnings of the fast ball challenge is greater than that of the slow ball. Hence, he should choose the fast ball challenge.</em>
