Mathematics
1 answer:
Artist 52 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of employees = 7 + 9 = 16

Probability of a man being chosen first to be promoted = 9/16

Probability of the second choice is still a man for promotion = 8/15

Why 8/15?

The number of men left who are eligible for promotion after the 1st man was chosen for promotion is 9 - 1 = 8

The total number of people left after the 1st person is chosen for promotion that are eligible for promotion is 16 - 1 = 15

Hence Probability of choosing 2 men for promotion = 9/16 x 8/15 = 3/10

One week a business sold 40 shirts. White ones cost $4.95, and the printed ones cost 7.95. In al $282 worth of shirts were sold.
Tanya [424]

Answer:

12 white 28 printed

Step-by-step explanation:

x = white y = printed

x + y = 40————(1)

4.95x + 7.95y = 282————(2)

Solve for x using 1st equation

x = 40 - y Plug in for x using 2nd equation

4.95(40 - y) + 7.95y = 282 Solve for y

198 - 4.95y + 7.95y = 282

3y = 84

y = 28         Plug in for y using 1st equation

x + (28) = 40     Solve for x

x = 12

Answer: 37.8579

This value is approximate and rounded to four decimal places

===============================================

Explanation:

The tangent function is being applied to some unknown angle x. To isolate x, we undo whatever tangent is doing. So we apply the inverse function. Specifically the inverse tangent function. This is also known as "arctangent" and your calculator most likely shows it as a button with a "-1" exponent above the "tan"

So apply the arctangent to both sides to get

tan(x) = 0.7773

arctan(tan(x)) = arctan(0.7773)

x = 37.8579

My calculator is in degree mode.
