FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

c=19.21

<C=90

<B=38.66°

<A=51.34

Step-by-step explanation:

12²+15²=c²

144+225=c²

c=19.21

<C=90

For angle B, the sinB=Opposite over Hypotenuse

sinB=12/19.21

sinB=0.62467

B=sin^-1(0.62467)

<B=38.66°

To find A, 180-90-38.66

<A=51.34

A produce store sold 45 red apples. If the ratio of red apples to green apples sold was 5 : 2, what is the combined amount of re
lisabon 2012 [21]

The ratio of Red Apples to Green Apples is 5:2. The proportion of red apple is 5/7.

The store sold 45 red apples.

So the combined amount of red and green apples sold = No of red apples sold divided by the proportion of red apples = 45/ (5/7) = 63

The combined amount of red and green apples sold is 63 apples.

Twelve years ago, Jane was five times as old as Anne. In three years' time, Anne will be half Jane's
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Jane: 37 years old

Anne: 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Jane 12 years ago: 5x

Anne 12 years ago: x

In three years into the future:

Jane: 5x+15

Anne: x+15

CURRENT TIME:

Jane: 5x+12

Anne: x+12

Equation (using 3 years into the future ages): 5x+15=2(x+15)

5x+15=2x+30

(subtract 15 from both sides)

5x=2x+15

3x=15

x=5

Therefore, Jane is 37 years old and Anne is 17 years old.

Sociologists say that 85% of married women claim that their husband's mother is the biggest bone of contention in their marriage
hoa [83]

Answer:

(A) 0.377,

(B) 0.000,

(C) 0.953,

(D) 0.047

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that having a bone of intention means not liking one's Mother-in-Law

(A) P(all six dislike their Mother-in-Law) = (85%)^6 = (.85)^6 = 0.377

(B) P(none of the six dislike their Mother-in-Law) =

(100% - 85%)^6 =

0.15^6 =

0.000

(C) P(at least 4 dislike their Mother-in-Law) =

P(exactly 4 dislike their Mother-in-Law) + P(exactly 5 dislike their Mother-in-Law) + P(exactly 6 dislike their Mother-in-Law) =

C(6,4) * (.85)^4 * (1-.85)^2 + C(6,5) * (.85)^5 * (.15)^1 + C(6,6) * (.85)^6 = (15) * (.85)^4 * (.15)^2 + (6) * (.85)^5 * .15 + (1) * (.85)^6 =

0.953

(D) P(no more than 3 dislike their Mother-in-Law) =

P(exactly 0 dislikes their Mother-in-Law) + P(exactly 1 dislikes her Mother) + P(exactly 2 dislike their Mother-in-Law) + P(exactly 3 dislike their Mother-in-Law) =

C(6,0) * (.85)^0 * (.15)^6 + C(6,1) * (.85)^1 * (.15)^5 + C(6,2) * (.85)^2 * (.15)^4 + C(6,3) * (.85)^3 * (.15)^3 =

(1)(1)(.15)^6 + (6)(.85)(.15)^5 + (15)(.85)^2 *(.15)^4 + (20)(.85)^3 * (.15)^3 =

0.047
