Area of Rhombus = $\frac{(diagonal 1) * (diagonal 2)}{2}$

Diagonal DB = 2×8 = 16

To find AC, we substitute into the formula the area 168 in² and DB of 16 in

Area = $\frac{DB*AC}{2}$
$168= \frac{16*AC}{2}$
$336=16*AC$
$AC= \frac{336}{16}=21$ inches

What are the apparent coordinates of the midpoint of diagonal AC?

Point A is (-2,2) and point C is(3,0) so the midpoint is

$\left( \dfrac{-2 + 3}{2}, \dfrac{2 + 0}{2} \right) = \left( \dfrac 1 2, 1 \right)$

The Hudson Bay tides vary between 3 feet and 9 feet. The tide is at its lowest point when time (t) is 0 and completes a full cyc

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

$y(t)= 6-3cos(\dfrac{2\pi}{14}t )$

Step-by-step explanation:

The function that could model this periodic phenomenon will be of the form

$y(t) = y_0+Acos(wt)$

The tide varies between 3ft and 9ft, which means its amplitude $A$ is

$A =\dfrac{(9-3)ft}{2} \\\\\boxed{A = 3ft}$

and its midline $y_0$ is

$y_o=3+3 \\\\\boxed{y_o= 6ft}$ .

Furthermore, since at $t=0$ the tide is at its lowest ( 3 feet ), we know that the trigonometric function we must use is $-cos(\omega t)$ .

The period of the full cycle is 14 hours, which means

$\omega t =2\pi$

$\omega (t+14)= 4\pi$

giving us

$\boxed{\omega = \dfrac{2\pi}{14}.}$

With all of the values of the variables in place, the function modeling the situation now becomes

$\boxed{y(t)= 6-3cos(\dfrac{2\pi}{14}t ).}$

50% of those who liked orange flavored soda also like lime flavored soda according to the conditional probability.

According to the statement

we have given that the in the survey 70% of the people surveyed said they like the orange flavored soda and 35% of the people surveyed said they liked the orange flavored soda AND the lime flavored soda.

And we have to find the conditional probability about this given statement.

So, We know that the

Let A and B represents the following events.

A : The people like the orange flavored soda.

B : The people like the lime flavored soda.

It is given that 70% of the people surveyed said they like the orange flavored soda.

so, P(A) = 0.70

And 35% of the people surveyed said they liked the orange flavored soda AND the lime flavored soda.

So, P(A ∩ B ) = 0.35

A. Conditional probability is a measure of the probability of an event occurring, given that another event has already occurred.

And

B. The formula for conditional probability is is written below:

P(A/B) = P(A ∩ B ) / P (B)

And

C. We need to find the percent of those who liked orange flavored soda also like lime flavored soda.

Use the above written conditional probability formula then

Substitute P(A)=0.70 and P(A∩B)=0.35 in the above formula.

So,

P(B/A) = P(A ∩ B ) / P (A)

P(B/A) = 0.35 / 0.70

P(B/A) = 0.50

So, 50% of those who liked orange flavored soda also like lime flavored soda according to the conditional probability.
