Draw a right triangle ABC, with m(CAB)=∅.

Let CB=7 units, AC=8 units, so by the Pythagorean theorem:

AB= \sqrt{ AC^{2} - BC^{2} }= \sqrt{ 8^{2} - 7^{2} }=  \sqrt{64-49} = \sqrt{15} (units)

so we have drawn a triangle where sin∅=7/8

in this triangle, cot∅=(adjacent side)/(opposite side)=\frac{ \sqrt{15} }{7}

Answer: <span>square root of fifteen divided by seven</span>

How do I graph the function y=3x-7
Rzqust [24]
-7 is the y-intercept
3 is the slope.

start point at -7 in the y-axis and then count 3 units up and 1 unit right and make another point. Then make a straight line through the two points. The line is infinite. 
I hope you get it :)

exercise 1.3. a telephone number consists of ten digits, of which the first digit is one of 1;2;:::;9 and the others can be 0;1;
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

The probability that "0" appears at most once in a telephone number is 0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Telephone number = 10 digits

First digit = (1,2......9)------> there are 9 possible digits

digit 2 - digit 10 = (0,1,2......9) -----> there are 10 possible digits

Let's find the total amount of telefone numbers with those characteristics:

possible first digit X possible second digit X...............X possible tenth digit

9X10X10X10X10X10X10X10X10X10 = 9X10^{9} = 9.000.000.000

Let's find the amount of telephone numbers that "0" appears at most once (it means 0 will occur either once or will not occur):

If "0" appears once, the rest of the numbers should be 1.2.....9 (9 possible digits)

9X10X9X9X9X9X9X9X9X9 =10X9^{9} = 3.874.204.809

If "0" doesn't appear, the ten digits should be 1,2....9

9X9X9X9X9X9X9X9X9X9 = 9^{10} =3.486.784.401

Finally, find the probability

P=(favorable outcomes/total outcomes)

P=\frac{3.874.204.890 + 3.486.784.401}{9.000.000.000} = 0.82
