A compound experiment consists of tossing a coin, drawing a letter at random from the alphabet, and then tossing two coins. What

is the probability of getting a tail, the letter T, and then two tails?

We should each take these probabilities first individually.
Probability of tails in a coin toss = 1/2
Probability of <span>drawing letter T from the alphabet = 1/26
Probability of 2 tails in 2 coin toss = 1/4
Sample space = {HH, TT, HT, TH}

Add these together since these events happen after another = 1/2 + 1/26 / + 1/4 = 41/52

The final probability is 41/52</span>

HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST FOR ANSWER QUICKLY PLEASE HELP
Helen [10]

Answer:

We have sinθ = 12/13

The  method here is to figure out the value of θ

Using a calculator sin^(-1)(12/13) =67.38°

67.38° is in quadrant 1  so we must substract 67.38° from 180° wich is π

  • 180-67.38= 112.61° ⇒ θ= 112.61°

Now time to calculate cos2θ and cosθ using a calculator

  • cosθ = -5/13
  • cos2θ =  -0.7

The values we got make sense since θ is in quadrant 2 and 2θ in quadrant 3

A cable television compan is laying cable in an area with underground utilities. Two subdivisions are located on opposite sides
Schach [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Point Q = Q is on the north bank 1200 m east of P $40/m to lay cable underground and $80/m way to lay the cable.

Lets denote T be a point on north bank, therefore, point T is t m east and 100m north of P.

Note that 0 < t < 1200

Distance from P to T using Pythagoras theorem:

PT^2 = PQ^2 + QT^2

PT = √(t²+100²) = √(t²+10,000)

Distance from T to Q:

TQ = 1200 - t

From above, Cable from P to T is underwater, and costs $80/m to lay.

Cable from T to Q is underground, and costs $40/m to lay.

Total cost of the cable:

C(t) = 80√(t²+10,000) + 40(1200 - t)

Cost is at its minimum: when dC/dt = C'(t) = 0 and d^2C/dt^2 = C''(t) > 0

dC/dt = C'(t)

= 80 * 1/2 (t² + 10,000)^(-1/2) × 2t + 40 × (-1)

dC/dt = C'(t)

= 80t/√(t² + 10,000) - 40 = 0

80t/√(t² + 10,000) = 40

80t = 40√(t² + 10,000)

2t = √(t² + 10,000)

square both sides:

4t² = t² + 10,000

3t² = 10,000

t² = 10,000/3

t = 100/√3

≈ 57.735

d^2C/dt^2 =

C''(t) = [80√(t² + 10,000) - 80t × t/√(t²+10,000)] /√(t²+10,000)

C''(t) = [(80(t²+10,000) - 80t²) / √(t²+10,000)] /√(t²+10,000)

C''(t) = 800,000 / (t² + 10,000)^(3/2)

C''(t) > 0 for all t

Therefore C(t) is minimized at t = 100/√3

C(100/√3) = 80√(10,000/3 + 10,000) + 40 × (1200 - 100/√3)

= 80 √(40,000/3) + 48,000 - 4000/√3

= 16000/√3 + 48,000 - 4000/√3

= 48,000 + 12,000/√3

= 48,000 + 4,000√3

= 4000 (12 + √3)

≈ 54,928.20

Minimum cost is $54,928.20

This occurs when cable is laid underwater from point P to point T(57.735 m east and 100m north of P) and then underground from point T to point Q (1200 - 57.735)

= 1142.265 m
