Answer:

<u>The correct answer is B. 5/26.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall what is the formula of the probability of any event:

Probability of an event= Number of favorable outcome/Total number of favorable outcomes

Then, replacing with the values of our question:

Probability of selecting a vowel = Number of vowels/Total number of letters of the alphabet

Probability of selecting a vowel = 5/26

<u>The correct answer is B. 5/26.</u>

Find the longer leg of the triangle.
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Choice A. 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle in question is a right triangle.

  • The length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite to the right angle) is given.
  • The measure of one of the acute angle is also given.

As a result, the length of both legs can be found directly using the sine function and the cosine function.

Let \text{Opposite} denotes the length of the side opposite to the 30^{\circ} acute angle, and \text{Adjacent} be the length of the side next to this 30^{\circ} acute angle.

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Opposite} &= \text{Hypotenuse} \times \sin{30^{\circ}}\\ &=2\sqrt{3}\times \frac{1}{2} \\&= \sqrt{3}\end{aligned}.

Similarly,

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Adjacent} &= \text{Hypotenuse} \times \cos{30^{\circ}}\\ &=2\sqrt{3}\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \\&= 3\end{aligned}.

The longer leg in this case is the one adjacent to the 30^{\circ} acute angle. The answer will be 3.

There's a shortcut to the answer. Notice that \sin{30^{\circ}} < \cos{30^{\circ}}. The cosine of an acute angle is directly related to the adjacent leg. In other words, the leg adjacent to the 30^{\circ} angle will be the longer leg. There will be no need to find the length of the opposite leg.

Does this relationship \sin{\theta} < \cos{\theta} holds for all acute angles? (That is, 0^{\circ} < \theta?) It turns out that:

  • \sin{\theta} < \cos{\theta} if 0^{\circ} < \theta;
  • \sin{\theta} > \cos{\theta} if 45^{\circ} < \theta;
  • \sin{\theta} = \cos{\theta} if \theta = 45^{\circ}.

Solve by substitution. Show each step of your work.<br><br> 2x + y = 7<br><br> 3x + 5y = 14
Monica [59]
Alright...simple...showing all steps.. ;)

You have the equations...

2x+y=7
and
3x+5y=14

To be able to even solve for any of the variables...multiply the equations by...2...and..3...

2x+y=7----*3--> 6x+3y=21
and
3x+5y=14-----*2--->6x+10y=28

Thus,

6x+3y=21
-
6x+10y=28

=========

-7y=-7

y=1

Now, plug y back into any of the original equations....we'll use 2x+y=7 in this case....

2x+(1)=7

2x+1=7
      -1  -1

2x=6

x=3

Thus, the point of intersection for these two equations is (3,1)
