The weight of the object is only dependent on the strength of gravity on that particular object.
If you learned about the 45-45-90 triangle (which is isosceles), then the faster way is to know that the hypotenuse (side opposite of right angle) is √2 times either one of the sides.
3√2 = (√2)x
x = 3
But if you didn't learn the 45-45-90 triangle yet, that's ok.
Recall the trigonometric ratios for right triangles: sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan).
If your angle is x, then
sin(x) = opposite side / hypotenuse
cos(x) = adjacent side / hypotenuse
tan(x) = opposite side / adjacent side
Remember the hypotenuse is the side opposite and across from the right angle (3√2 in this case).
An acronym to remember this is SohCahToa.
In this problem, the angle given is 45°, and you need to find the length of the adjacent side x. The hypotenuse is also given as 3√2.
Because we have the adjacent side and the hypotenuse, we use cosine to relate those two sides
cos(45°) = x / (3√2)
x = (3√2)cos45°
If you plug this into your calculator (in degree mode), then
x = 3
Answer: The numbers are 14, 16 and 18.
Step-by-step explanation: First thing to note is that consecutive even numbers have a difference of 2 units between every two terms. That is, if the first number is a, the next would be a + 2, and the next would be a + 4, and so on.
Therefore the three consecutive even numbers shall be a, a + 2, and a + 4.
Our equation now becomes;
a + a + 2 + a + 4 = 48
3a + 6 = 48
Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation
3a = 42
Divide both sides of the equation by 3
a = 14
Therefore, the numbers are 14, 16 and 18.
Answer:
0.578
Step-by-step explanation:
If you pick three burritos at random, find the probability of the given event. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
Given that there are 14 orders at the ratio by of:
6 with hot peppers
8 without hot peppers
At most two have hot peppers.
Binomial Problem with n = 3 ; p(hot) = 6/8
P(0<= x <=2) = 1 - P(x = 3)
= 1 - (6/8)^3
= 1 - ( 3/4 )^3
= 1 - ( 27/64 )^3
= 1- (37/64)
= 1 - 0.421875
= 0.578125
= 0.578
