Answer:

0.7 = 70%.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 cans, and she will pick 2, so the number of possibilities that she can pick 2 cans is a combination of 5 choose 2:

C(5,2) = 5!(3!*2!) = 5*4/2 = 10

To find how many possibilities there are with at least 1 can of soup, we can find the number of groups that include no cans of soup, and then see how many possibilities complete the total 10:

There are 3 "no-soup" cans, so the number of possibilities is a combination of 3 choose 2:

C(3,2) = 3!/2! = 3

So, there are 3 possibilities that have no cans of soup, so the number of possibilities that have at least 1 can of soup is 10 - 3 = 7

Then, the probability is 7 / 10 = 0.7 = 70%.

What are the ratios of sine, cosine, and tangent for angle Y? sin(Y) = StartFraction X Z Over X Y EndFraction; cos(Y) = StartFra
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

\sin Y= \frac{XZ}{XY}

\cos Y= \frac{YZ}{XY}

\tan Y= \frac{XZ}{YZ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for triangle

Required

Find \sin, \cos and \tan of angle Y

For angle Y:

Opposite = XZ

Adjacent = YZ

Hypotenuse = XY

The \sin of an angle is calculated as:

\sin\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}

So:

\sin Y= \frac{XZ}{XY}

The \cos of an angle is calculated as:

\cos\theta = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}

So:

\cos Y= \frac{YZ}{XY}

The \tan of an angle is calculated as:

\tan\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}

So:

\tan Y= \frac{XZ}{YZ}

Which shows how to solve the equation Three-fourths x = negative 6 for x in one step?
My name is Ann [436]

option A i.e. Three-fourths (four-thirds) x = negative 6 (four-thirds).

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

We have , The given expression as Three-fourths x = negative 6  , which can be written as \frac{3}{4} (x) = -6 . Now in order to solve this equation in one step , we must notice that coefficient of x must be 1 but it's  \frac{3}{4} , Let's make coefficient of x  as 1 by multiplying both side of equations by 4/3:

\frac{3}{4} (x) = -6

⇒ \frac{3}{4} (x) = -6

⇒ \frac{3}{4}(\frac{4}{3} ) (x) = -6(\frac{4}{3} )

⇒ x = -6(\frac{4}{3} )

⇒ x = -2(4)

⇒ x = -8

Therefore, x= -8 & correct option to solve the equation Three-fourths x = negative 6 for x in one step is <u>option A i.e. Three-fourths (four-thirds) x = negative 6 (four-thirds).</u>
