Answer:

l = 10.5 cm and A = 21 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is w*l

Perimeter is 2(w+l)

Replacing the information known in the problem you can get the length with the perimeter

P = 2(w+l)

25 = 2(2+l)

12.5 = 2 + l

10.5 cm = l

with the length now you can find the area

A = w*l

A = 2*10.5

A = 21 cm2

In an election, the population consists of the people who voted. Although there is overall data on how the population voted, the

Answer:

Answer:

P(A) = 0.39

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

P(W|A) = 0.7

P(W|A^c ) = 0.3

We are told that 60% of the respondents said they voted for A. Thus;

P(A|W) = 60% = 0.6

Now, using the principle of drawing lots, we can be able to find the probability of the event that they are willing to participate in the exit poll which is P(W).

Thus;

P(W) = [P(W|A) × P(A)] +[P(W∣A^c) × P(A^c)]

Now, P(A^c) can be expressed as 1 - P(A)

Thus, we now have;

P(W) = [P(W|A) × P(A)] + [P(W∣A^c) × (1 - P(A)]

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

P(W) = 0.7P(A) + 0.3(1 - P(A))

P(W) = 0.7P(A) + 0.3 - 0.3P(A)

P(W) = 0.3 + 0.4P(A)

Now,using Baye's theorem, we can find an expression for P(A|W)

Thus;

P(A|W) = [P(A ∩ W)]/P(W)

This can be further expressed as;

P(A|W) = [P(A) × P(W|A)]/P(W)

Plugging in relevant values, we have;

0.6 = 0.7P(A)/(0.3 + 0.4P(A))

Cross multiply to get;

0.6(0.3 + 0.4P(A)) = 0.7P(A)

0.18 + 0.24P(A) = 0.7P(A)

0.18 = 0.7P(A) - 0.24P(A)

0.46P(A) = 0.18

P(A) = 0.18/0.46

P(A) = 0.39

is it possible draw a right triangle with and obtuse angle? if so draw it in the box if not write impossible. is it possible guy

Ipatiy [6.2K]

It is not possible. Since one of the angles has to be a right angle, the other two angles would have to add to 90. Therefore, neither of these angles can be more than 90 degrees.

Hope this helps

A transformer increases the input voltage from 12V to 12,000V. What is the ratio of the number of wire turns on the primary coil

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

$\frac{n_p}{n_s}=\frac{1}{1000}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given voltage of primary coil is $V_p=12V$

And voltage of secondary coil is $V_s=12,000V$

A transformer is a device that contains primary and secondary coil. These coils are mounted on soft iron. The change in voltage depends upon the number of turns of primary coil $(n_p)$ and secondary coil $(n_s)$ .

Following equation represents the relation between them.

$\frac{V_s}{V_p} =\frac{n_s}{n_p}\\\\\frac{12,000}{12}=\frac{n_s}{n_p}\\\\1000=\frac{n_s}{n_p}$

Then, ratio of the number of wire turns on the primary coil to the number of turns on the secondary coil is

$\frac{n_p}{n_s}=\frac{1}{1000}$
