<h3>Given</h3>

right triangle with side "a" = 12 and hypotenuse "c" = 15

<h3>Find</h3>

cos(∠A)

<h3>Solution</h3>

The Pythagorean theorem tells you

... b = √(c² - a²) = √(225 - 144) = √81 = 9

The definition of the cosine tells you

... cos(A) = b/c = 9/15

... cos(A) = 3/5 . . . . . . reduce the fraction

Solve for x<br> (-4/3) x - 6 = -26<br><br> A. −27<br> B. −15<br> C. 15<br> D. 27
andre [41]
- \dfrac{4}{3} x - 6 = -26

//Add 6 to both sides:
- \dfrac{4}{3} x  = -20

//Multiply by -1 on both sides:
\dfrac{4}{3} x  = 20

Multiply by 3 on both sides:
4x  = 60

Divide by 4 on both sides:
x  = 15

Answer: x = 15 (Answer C)

A college surveys 300 graduates and finds 98 graduated with honors and 207 had one or both parents graduate from college. Of the
musickatia [10]

Answer:

20.43% probability that a randomly chosen graduate from these 300 graduated with honors given that neither parent graduated from college.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Graduated with honors:

98 students graduated with honors. Of those, 79 had at least one parent graduating from college. So 98 - 79 = 19 did not.

Of 300 students, 207 had one or both parents graduate from college. So 300 - 207 = 93 did not have at least one parent graduating.

Find the probability that a randomly chosen graduate from these 300 graduated with honors given that neither parent graduated from college.

Of the 93 with no graduated parent, 19 earned honors

19/93 = 0.2043

20.43% probability that a randomly chosen graduate from these 300 graduated with honors given that neither parent graduated from college.

Aunt bess uses 3 cups of oatmeal to bake 6 dozen cookies how many cups of oatmeal will she need to bake 18 dozen cookies
Andrei [34K]
There are several important information's already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Number of cups of Oatmeal
required by Aunt Bess for making 6 dozen cookies = 3
Then
Number of cups of oatmeal
required by Aunt Bess for making 1 dozen cookies = (3/6)
                                                                                  = 1/2
So
Number of cups of oatmeal
required by Aunt Bess for making 18 dozen cookies = (1/2) * 18
                                                                                     = 9 cups
So Aunt Bess will require 9 cups of oatmeal for baking 18 dozen cookies. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to undestand.
