Answer:

5 out of 12

5/12

January, March, May, June, July

There are three months whose name starts with the letter 'j': January, June, July

There are two months whose name starts with the letter 'm': March, May

So altogether, there are 5 months whose name starts with the letter 'j' or 'm'. So the possible outcome is 5 and total number of sample space is 12.

Therefore the required probability is: 5/12

PLEASE GIVE BRAINLYEST :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total outcomes = 12

Letter starting with M = 2 (march & May)

Letter starting with J = 3 ( January, June, July)

P(letter starting with M and J)=2/12+3/12=5/12

Calculate cos(480°) and sin(480°).

hram777 [196]

Answer:

$\cos(480^\circ)=-\dfrac{1}{2}$

$\sin(480^\circ)=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the value of trigonometry function.

$\cos(480^\circ)$ and $\sin(480^\circ)$

Split the angle between 0 to 90° using trigonometry formula.

$\Rightarrow \cos(360^\circ+120^\circ)$

$\Rightarrow \cos(120^\circ)$ $\because \cos(360+\theta)=\cos\theta$

$\Rightarrow \cos(180^\circ-60^\circ)$ $\because 120=180-60$

$\Rightarrow -\cos(60^\circ)$ $\because \cos(180-\theta)=-\cos\theta$

$\Rightarrow -\dfrac{1}{2}$

Therefore, cos(480°) = -0.5

$\Rightarrow \sin(360^\circ+120^\circ)$

$\Rightarrow \sin(120^\circ)$ $\because \sin(360+\theta)=\sin\theta$

$\Rightarrow \sin(180^\circ-60^\circ)$ $\because 120=180-60$

$\Rightarrow \sin(60^\circ)$ $\because \sin(180-\theta)=\sin\theta$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Therefore, sin(480°) = 0.866

trisha started out with 40,000 miles on her car and drove exactly 800 miles a week. After how many weeks did she have 44,800 mil

Yuri [45]

Since she started out with 40,000 miles, you have to subtract that from 44,800 miles. you end up with 4,800 miles. you then divide 4,800 miles by 800 miles and you end up with 6 as your answer.

The Reyes want grilled chicken and tilapia for dinner. Mrs.

seropon [69]

Answer:

Kilogram of chicken = 1

Kilogram of tilapia = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of chicken = 150 per kilo

Cost of tilapia = 100 per kilo

Number of kilos of each if total cost should not exceed 450

Let :

Number of kilo of chicken = x

Number of tilapia kilo = y

The constraint :

150x + 100y ≤ 450

We could choose some reasonable values of x and y then, test the constraint ;

If x = 1 and y = 3

150(1) + 100(3) = 450

Hence,

1 kilo of chicken with 3 kilos of tilapia offers the greatest combination of Number of kilograms of tilapia and chicken that could be purchased and still satisfy the maximum cost constraint.
