Answer: (A) 6.6 sec (B) 6.89 sec

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

    y    = -16t² + 1700

 1000 = -16t² + 1700

 <u>-1700</u>     <u>         -1700  </u>

  -700 = -16t²

 <u> ÷-16  </u>   <u>÷-16 </u>

 43.75 = t²

√43.75 = √t²

   6.6 = t

***********************************

    y    = -16t² + 1700

  940 = -16t² + 1700

 <u>-1700</u>     <u>         -1700  </u>

  -760 = -16t²

 <u> ÷-16  </u>   <u>÷-16 </u>

  47.5 = t²

√47.5 = √t²

  6.89 = t

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

given a triangle with 2 sides and the angle between them given, then the area (A) is calculated as

A = \frac{1}{2} bc sinA

the 2 sides are b = 4, c = 6 and ∠ A = 35° , then

A = \frac{1}{2} × 4 × 6 × sin35° = 12 × sin35° ≈ 6.9 m² ( to the nearest tenth )

As part of a study done for a large corporation, psychologists asked randomly selected employees to solve a collection of simple
zhenek [66]

Answer:

P(A')=1-0.411=0.589

And that represent the probability that they take longer than 7 minutes to solve the puzzles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complement rule is a theorem that provides a connection between the probability of an event and the probability of the complement of the event. Lat A the event of interest and A' the complement. The rule is defined by: P(A)+P(A') =1

On this case we have that n= 56 represent the employees selected to solve the puzzles.

We know that 23 out of the 56 selected solved the puzzles in less than 7 minutes.

Let's define the events A and A' like this:

A: Employees solved puzzles in less than 7 minutes

By the complement rule then:

A' : Employees solved puzzles in more than 7 minutes

Based on this we are interested to find the probability for A'

We can begin finding P(A), from the definition of probability we know:

P(A)=\frac{Possible outcomes}{Total outcomes}

For this case if we replace we got:

P(A) =\frac{23}{56}=0.411

And using the complemnt rule we got:

0.411 +P(A')=1

And solving for P(A') we got:

P(A')=1-0.411=0.589

And that represent the probability that they take longer than 7 minutes to solve the puzzles.
