You can use the cosine law with the formula:
a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2*b*c*cosA
With a = 5, b = 5, c = 7,
7^2 = 5^2 + 5^2 - 2*5*7*cosA
49 = 25 + 25 - 70*cosA
70*cosA = 25 + 25 - 49
70*cosA = 1
cosA = 1/70
A = arccos (1/70) = 89.18 deg = 89 deg

What is the square root of 12 simplified? Is it 2 times the square root of 3?
blagie [28]

Answer: Yes, it is 2\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify square roots, you can factor the number inside the square root into its lowest common denominators.

\sqrt{12}=\sqrt{4*3}  =\sqrt{2*2*3}

Any value that appears twice can be "taken out" of the square root and moved to the left of it:

2\sqrt{3},

What you are doing is essentially taking the square root of 4 and the square root of 3. Because the square root of 4 can be simplified, and the square root of 3 cannot, this is the most simplified version of the expression we can reach.

Helppp!!!!laura is playing a card game with her friend.she will draw two cards from those pictured.
puteri [66]

Answer:

10

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case it would be the combination of 2 taken from 5.

That is, when n = 5 and r = 2

nCr = n! / r! * (n-r)!

replacing

5C2 = 5! / (2! * 3!)

5C2 = 10

Which means that the sample space is 10 possible combinations.

the probability that the card you draw is even is 3/5, since there are 3 even cards that exist and 5 is the total number of cards.

Now, so that both are for it would be the multiplication of the previous probability and 2/4 because an even card and a card in general have already been drawn:

(3/5) * (2/4) = 0.3

So the probability that both are even is 30%
