A paper cup is dropped and its landing position is recorded. The cup can land on the side, on the open end, or on the closed end

. The results of 20 trials are shown in the table below: A chart shows tally marks. Main title for the chart is Paper Cup Experiment. The title for the second column is Number of times occurred. The tally mark corresponding to open shows a set of 4 vertical lines cut by a slanting line. The tally mark corresponding to closed shows a set of 4 vertical lines cut by a slanting line and a set of 3 vertical lines. The tally mark corresponding to side shows a set of 4 vertical lines cut by a slanting line and a set of 2 vertical lines. Based on the table, which of the following best compares the experimental probability of the cup landing on its open end with the experimental probability of the cup landing on its closed end?

prob( it lands on open end) = 8/20 = 2/5

prob ( lands on closed end) = 4/20 = 1/5

The second choice is correct.

Using distributive property what is 3(5 +6) =
Annette [7]

Answer:

3(5 +6) = <em>33</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

3(5+6)

so first you multiply 3 by 5

which is 15

then you multiply 3 by 6

which is 18

and that remains as 15+18

which in total equals <em>33</em>

If tan a = 3/4 find the value of sin 3a
Effectus [21]
T=-1

sinA=sin(π/2-3A), A=2nπ+π/2-3A, 4A=2nπ+π/2, A=nπ/2+π/8 where n is an integer.

Also, π-A=2nπ+π/2-3A, 2A=2nπ-π/2, A=nπ-π/4.

The hard way:

cos3A=cos(2A+A)=cos(2A)cosA-sin(2A)sinA.

Let s=sinA and c=cosA, then s²+c²=1.

cos3A=(2c²-1)c-2c(1-c²)=c(4c²-3).

s=c(4c²-3) is the original equation.

Let t=tanA=s/c, then c²=1/(1+t²).

t=4c²-3=4/(1+t²)-3=(4-3-3t²)/(1+t²)=(1-3t²)/(1+t²).

So t+t³=1-3t², t³+3t²+t-1=0=(t+1)(t²+2t-1).

So t=-1 is a solution.

t²+2t-1=0 is a solution, t²+2t+1-1-1=0=(t+1)²-2, so t=-1+√2 and t=-1-√2 are solutions.

Therefore tanA=-1, -1+√2, -1-√2 are the three solutions from which:

A=-π/4, π/8, -3π/8 radians and these values +2πn where n is an integer.

Replacing π by 180° converts the solutions to degrees.

SOS *Algebra one*
user100 [1]
This can be done in two ways
One method is to check the answer options in both f(x) and g(x) and select the one that matches for both.
The second is to form a quadratic equation and solving as such:
f(x) = g(x)
-x² + 4x + 12 = x + 8
x² - 3x - 4 = 0
(x - 4)(x + 1) = 0
x = 4; x = -1
Only x = 4 is given in the options, so the answer is B
