Prob of selected students times prob of selecting boys times prob of selecting 3 boys
total students = 15b + 30g = 45 students

1. 10s/45t = 0.22
2. 15b/45t = 0.33
3. 3b/15b = 0.2

0.22×0.33×0.2=0.0148

Anna wants to make 4 sets of curtains. Each set requires 5 1/8 yards of fabric. How much fabric does she need?
Nesterboy [21]
20 yards
take 5 1/8 and make that into 40/8 and then you will divide 40 into 8 and it = 5 so then you do 4x5=20

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

  119.05°

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, the angle is given by ...

  θ = arctan(y/x)

Here, that becomes ...

  θ = arctan(9/-5) ≈ 119.05°

_____

<em>Comment on using a calculator</em>

If you use the ATAN2( ) function of a graphing calculator or spreadsheet, it will give you the angle in the proper quadrant. If you use the arctangent function (tan⁻¹) of a typical scientific calculator, it will give you a 4th-quadrant angle when the ratio is negative. You must recognize that the desired 2nd-quadrant angle is 180° more than that.

__

It may help you to consider looking at the "reference angle." In this geometry, it is the angle between the vector v and the -x axis. The coordinates tell you the lengths of the sides of the triangle vector v forms with the -x axis and a vertical line from that axis to the tip of the vector. Then the trig ratio you're interested in is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent = |y|/|x|

This is the tangent of the reference angle, which will be ...

  θ = arctan(|y| / |x|) = arctan(9/5) ≈ 60.95°

You can see from your diagram that the angle CCW from the +x axis will be the supplement of this value, 180° -60.95° = 119.05°.

I need help.<br> Math is really hard
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The value of x in terms of b is: \mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}

The value of x when b is 3 is: x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function: -2(bx-5)=16

First we need to find

The value of x in terms of b

We need to find value of x

-2(bx-5)=16

Multiply -2 with terms inside the bracket

-2bx+10=16

Subtract 10 from both sides

-2bx+10-10=16-10\\-2bx=6

Divide both sides by -2b

\frac{-2bx}{-2b}=\frac{6}{-2b}\\x=-\frac{6}{2b}

So, The value of x in terms of b is: \mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}

The value of x when b is 3

We have the equation for the value of x in terms of b:

\mathbf{x=-\frac{6}{2b}}

Put b = 3

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

So, The value of x when b is 3 is: x = -1
