Cassava = 1/3 of his land

Remaining after planting Cassava = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 of his land

Maize = 2/5 x 2/3 = 4/15 of his land

Vegetables = 2/3 - 4/15 = 2/5 of his land



If vegetables = 10 acres

2/5 of his land = 10 acres

1/5 of his land = 10 ÷ 2 = 5 acres

5/5 of his land = 5 x 5 = 25 acres

Answer: Total area 25 acres.

What does complumentary mean in geometry?
Bumek [7]
If you have a right triangle and one angle in the triangle is 45 degrees, the other would have to be complementary (an angle that adds up to another to form a right angle) so the other angle would have to be 45 degrees to make that a right angle 90 degrees. So complementary angles are two angles that add up to equal 90 degrees.

I don't know what it means by an obtuse angle. I have to choose math because I don't see a subject for shapes and stuff.
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Angle <em>ADE</em> is an obtuse angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

An obtuse angle is an angle that "opens" greater than 90 degrees. The question asks which angle is an obtuse angle, so basically you follow the order of letters and see which one is greater than 90 degrees (btw, 90 degrees, also known as a right angle, looks like the corner of a square, and anything greater than that is an obtuse angle).

A researcher wishes to conduct a study of the color preferences of new car buyers. Suppose that 50% of this population prefers t
NeX [460]

Answer:

0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 50% of this population prefers the color green.

Let p the probability that one person selected from the population prefer the green color of the car. So,

p=0.05

There is only two chance, any person either prefer the green color or not, assuming this holds true for every person, so the mentioned population can be assumed as Bernoulli's population.

By using Bernoulli's theorem, the probability of exactly r success of n randomly selected from the Bernoulli's population is

P(r)=\binom{n}{r}p^{r}{(1-p)}^{n-r}\cdots(i)

Here, 15 buyers are randomly selected, so, n= 15 and

r= \frac1 3 \times 15=5

So, by using equation (i), the probability that exactly 5 buyers would prefer green out of 15 randomly selected buyers is

P(r=5)=\binom{15}{5}(0.5)^{5}{(1-0.5)}^{15-5}

=\binom{15}{5}(0.5)^{5}{0.5}^{10}

=\binom{15}{5}(0.5)^{15}

=0.0916

Hence, the probability that exactly 5 buyers would prefer green out of 15 randomly selected buyers is 0.09.

Point (-1, 3) lie on a line with a slope of 4, what is the equation of the line?
sukhopar [10]

Answer: y-3=4(x+1) in point-slope form and y=4x+7 in slope intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the point-slope form by plugging the numbers into the following: y-y₁=m(x-x₁).

You will end up with y-(3)=(4)(x-(-1)) which when simplified equals y-3=4(x+1).

To find slope intercept form you know need to isolate y and simplify.

Adding 3 to both sides results in y=4(x+1)+3.

If you then distribute you get y=4x+4+3 which simplifies to y=4x+7.
