Answer:  C. 11/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The fraction of stores inventory is children's clothing=\dfrac{1}{3}

The fraction of stores inventory is women's clothing=\dfrac{2}{5}

Since both events are independent.

Therefore, the fraction of the total inventory is children's or women's clothing =  (Fraction of stores inventory is children's clothing ) + (Fraction of stores inventory is women's clothing )

=\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{2}{5}=\dfrac{5+2(3)}{15}

=\dfrac{11}{15}

∴ The fraction of the total inventory is children's or women's clothing =\dfrac{11}{15}

Hence, the correct answer is C. 11/15 .

Based on the given nomenclature of angles, I think the illustration would look like that shown in the attached picture. The common vertex is point B, that's why the middle point of the given angles is B. Now, according to Angle Addition Postulate, the individual interior angles should sum up to the total angle. So, the equation would be

m∠ABD = m∠ABC + m∠CBD
m∠ABC = m∠ABD - m∠CBD
m∠ABC = 85° - m∠CBD

Which of the number(s) below are potential roots
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

+1 is the potential root of the function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

p(x) = x⁴ + 22x⁴ – 16x - 12

A potential root of the function is zero of the function. That is a potential root will reduce the function to  zero or close to zero.

To determine this, we test each of the root given;

p(6) = (6)⁴ + 22(6)⁴ - 16(6) - 12 = 29700

p(3) = (3)⁴ + 22(3)⁴ - 16(3) - 12 = 1803

p(1) = (1)⁴ + 22(1)⁴ - 16(1) - 12 = -5

p(8) = (8)⁴ + 22(8)⁴ - 16(8) - 12 = 94068

The only number that reduces the function close to zero is +1, then +1 is the potential root of the function.

What is the solution to –2(5y – 5) – 3y ≤ –7y + 22?
Gre4nikov [31]
-2(5y - 5) - 3y < = -7y + 22
-10y + 10 - 3y < = -7y + 22
-13y + 10 < = -7y + 22
-13y + 7y < = 22 - 10
-6y < = 12
y > = -12/6
y > = -2....answer B

Pls help me I rlly don’t get it :(
zhenek [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use SOH-CAH-TOA.

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent

Let's start with #12.  The hypotenuse is 18.  The side adjacent to ∠B is 6.  Since we have the adjacent side and hypotenuse, we should use cosine.

cos B = 6/18

Solving for B:

B = cos⁻¹(6/18)

Using a calculator:

B ≈ 70.5°

Now let's do #14.  The side adjacent to ∠B is 19, and the side opposite of ∠B is 22.  Since we have the adjacent side and opposite side, we should use tangent.

tan B = 22/19

Solving for B:

B = tan⁻¹(22/19)

Using a calculator:

B ≈ 49.2°
