Answer:

2100 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Diameter to the moon = 240000 miles

∅ = 0.5 °

The subtended angle by an arc is given as:

S = r∅

Where

r = radius of the circle

Therefore,

D = 240,000 x (0.5 x π rads)/180

= 2094 miles

= 2100 miles.

To find the experimental probability, you will add the outcomes that resulted in even number and make that a ratio to the total number of outcomes.

<u>(12 + 14 + 18)</u>
(13 + 12 + 12 +14 + 11 + 18)

44/80 = 0.55
0.55 = 55%

The answer is choice D.

Which of the following is the equation of
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

a) Option A is correct.

b) Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Which of the following is the equation of  the line passing through the points (1, 1)  and (-3,5)?

We will use the equation

(y-y₁)=m(x-x₁)

m= (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

m= (5-1)/(-3-1)

m= 4/-4

m= -1

Consider point (1,1) and Putting value of m

(y-y₁)=m(x-x₁)

(y-1)=1(x-1)

y-1=x-1

y=x-1+1

y=x

So, Option A is correct.

b) Which of the following is the equation of a  line with a slope of 0 passing through (2,5)?

The formula used is:

y= mx+b

Finding b:

5=0(2)+b

=> b = 5

So, equation is:

y = mx+b

y=0x+5

y=5

So, Option C is correct.
