Answer:

Numerator represents number of ways achieving success.

Denominator represents total number of outcomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

P = \frac{number of succes events}{number of total events}

Find the value of each variable.
Harrizon [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

b is per the identity of angles on parallel lines when intersected by one inclined line the same as the 40° angle.

so,

b = 40°

due to the parallel nature of the 2 lines there is a symmetry effect for such shapes inscribed a circle. the upper and the lower triangle must be similar. and when applying a vertical line through the central crossing point, everything to the left is mirrored by everything on the right.

so, angle c must be equal to angle b.

c = 40°

and as the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180°, d is then

d = 180 - 40 - 40 = 100°

the interior angle of the arc angle a is the supplementary angle of d (together they are 180°), because together with d they cover the full down side of the top-left to bottom-right line.

interior angle to a = 180 - 100 = 80°

due to the symmetry again, the arc angle opposite to a is the same as a.

as we know, the interior angle to a pair of opposing arc angles is the mean value of the 2 angles.

so, we have

(a + a)/2 = 80

2a/2 = 80

a = 80°

there might (and actually should) be some more direct approaches for "a" out of the other pieces of information, but that was the most straight one right out of my mind, and I don't spend time on finding additional shortcuts, when I have already a working approach.

Give the equation of the line perpendicular to y +7= -2(x - 6) through the<br> point (6,-3)
lilavasa [31]

<u>Note: this answer assumes the equation of the line can be put in slope-intercept form. </u>

Answer:

y + 3 = \frac{1}{2}(x-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, find the slope of y + 7 = -2 (x - 6). We can see that it's already in point-slope form, or y-y_1 = m (x-x_1) format. Remember that the number in place of the m is the slope. Therefore, -2 is the slope of that equation.

What we need is the slope that is perpendicular to that, though. So, find the opposite reciprocal of -2. To do this, change its sign, convert it into a fraction (-\frac{2}{1}), and flip its numerators and denominators. Therefore, the perpendicular slope would be \frac{1}{2}.

2) Now that we have a slope and a point the line passes through, we can write an equation using the point-slope formula, y-y_1 = m (x-x_1). In order to write an equation, the x_1, y_1, and m have to be substitute for with real values.

The m represents the slope. We already calculated that in the last step, so put \frac{1}{2} in place of the m. The x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of a point the line passes through. We know that the line has to pass through (6, -3), so substitute 6 for x_1 and -3 for y_1:

y - (-3) = \frac{1}{2}(x -(6))\\y + 3 = \frac{1}{2}(x - 6)

Therefore, (again, assuming that the line can be put in point-slope form) the answer is y + 3 = \frac{1}{2}(x-6).
