Answer:

1/4 or 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Flipping a tails and rolling more than a 3 are independent events: they don't affect each other. So, to get the probability of both happening, we just need to multiply the probability of one by the probability of the other.

The probability of flipping a tails is 1/2.

The probability of rolling more than a 3 is 3/6 since there are 3 outcomes which satisfy our condition (namely, 4, 5, and 6), and 6 total possible outcomes.

So you'll have 1/2*3/6= 1/4

lana66690 [7]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have the following information given in the problem:

- The angle of elevation from Madison to the top of the Statue of Liberty is 79 degrees.
- Madison is standing 58.2 feet from its base.

-Madison is 5 feet tall.

2. Therefore, you have:

Sinα=opposite/hypotenuse

Sin(79°)=x/58.2
x=(58.2)(Sin(79°))
x=57.13 ft

3. Now, you can calculate the height of the Statue of Liberty, as below:

height=x+5 ft
height=57.13 ft+5 ft
height=62.13 ft

4. Therefore, as you can see, the answer is: 62.13 ft
