First we need to calculate the 2 angles that make up Angle B at the top of the triangle.
 Using that angle we can find the length of CD.

Answer:

D. 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an image of a triangle. We are asked to find the length of CD.

We will use altitude on hypotenuse theorem to solve our given problem.

\frac{CD}{\text{Altitude}}=\frac{\text{Altitude}}{AC}

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

\frac{CD}{37}=\frac{37}{53}

\frac{CD}{37}\times 37=\frac{37}{53}\times 37

CD=\frac{37\times 37}{53}

CD=\frac{1369}{53}

CD=25.830188679\approx 26

Therefore, the length of CD is 26 units and option D is the correct choice.

Joe owns a stock which has probability .5 of going up. This morning, he bought a ticket in a lottery game which gives him a prob
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The probability that Joe's stock will go up and he will win in the lottery  is 0.00005.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the events be denoted as:

<em>X</em> = the stock goes up

<em>Y</em> = Joe wins the lottery

Given:

P (X) = 0.50

P (Y) = 0.0001

The events of the stock going up is not dependent on the the event of Joe winning the lottery.

So the events <em>X</em> and <em>Y</em> are independent of each other.

Independent events are those events that can occur together at the same time.

The joint probability of two independent events <em>A</em> and <em>B </em>is,

P(A\cap B)=P(A)\times P(B)

Compute the value of P (<em>X ∩ Y</em>) as follows:

P(X\cap Y)=P(X)\times P(Y)=0.50\times 0.0001=0.00005

Thus, the probability that Joe's stock will go up and he will win in the lottery  is 0.00005.
