Answer:

1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability totals must add up to 1.

P = probability.

If P(any number other than 6) = x,  then P(6) = 3x, so

3x + 5x = 1

x = 1/8

P(6) = 3/8 and P(not 6) = 1/8

Therefore P(6 or 1) = 3/8 + 1/8 = 1/2 (answer).

Mischa wrote the quadratic equation 0 = –x2 + 4x – 7 in standard form. What is the value of c in her equation
Zolol [24]

Mischa wrote the quadratic equation 0 = –x2 + 4x – 7 in standard form

The standard form of quadratic equation is

y= ax^2 + bx + c

When y=0 then the standard equation becomes

0= ax^2 + bx + c

Now we compare the given equation 0 = -x^2 + 4x - 7  with 0= ax^2 + bx + c and find the value of a, b,c

-x^2 can be written as -1x^2

0= ax^2 + bx + c

0 = -1x^2 + 4x - 7

a= -1 , b=4  and c=-7

The value of c is -7

Given sin theta= 6/11 and sec theta &lt; 0, find cos theta and tan theta.
bekas [8.4K]

Answer: option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, we know that:

cos^2(\theta)=1-sen^2(\theta)\\\\tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}

Substitute sin(\theta)=\frac{6}{11} into the first equation, solve for the cosine and simplify. Then, you obtain:

cos(\theta)=\±\sqrt{1-(\frac{6}{11})^2}\\\\cos(\theta)=\±\sqrt{\frac{85}{121}}\\\\ cos(\theta)=\±\frac{\sqrt{85}}{11}

As sec\theta then cos\theta:

cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{85}}{11}

Now we can find tan\theta:

tan\theta=\frac{\frac{6}{11}}{-\frac{\sqrt{85}}{11}}\\\\tan\theta=-\frac{6\sqrt{85}}{85}

Simplify the rational expression by rationalizing the denominator √15/√6x
noname [10]

Answer:

√10/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by √6 on the top and bottom to rationalize the denominator.

(√15×√6)/(√6x×√6) = √90/6x = (√9×√10)/6x = 3√10/6x = √10/2x
