Given a right triangle with hypothenus of measure 34, the side opposite the angle θ of measure 30, and the side adjacent the angle theta of measure 16.

$\sin\theta= \frac{opposite}{hypothenuse} = \frac{30}{34} = \frac{15}{17} \\ \\ \Rightarrow \theta=\sin^{-1}\left( \frac{15}{17} \right) \\ \\ \\ \cos\theta= \frac{adjacent}{hypothenuse} = \frac{16}{34} = \frac{8}{17} \\ \\ \Rightarrow \theta=\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{8}{17} \right) \\ \\ \\ \tan\theta= \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{30}{16} = \frac{15}{8} \\ \\ \Rightarrow \theta=\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{15}{8} \right)$

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

a) 0.21% probability that there are no bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

b) 99.79% probability of having at least 1 bad peach in the peach cobbler

c) 7.91% probability of having exactly 2 bad peaches in the peach cobbler.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the peaches are chosen is not important. So the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

(a) If you make a peach cobbler of 12 peaches randomly selected from the box, what is the probability that there are no bad peaches in the peach cobbler?

Desired outcomes:

12 good peaches, from a set of 12. So

$D = C_{12,12} = \frac{12!}{12!(12 - 12)!} = 1$
