Answer:

Expected number of books = 1.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected number of books, E(x) = ∑xp(x)

∑ = Summation

x = books

p(x) = probability of purchasing a book

E(x) = (0*0.4) + (1*0.2) + (2*0.4)

E(x) = 0 + 0.2 + 0.8 = 1.0

6/54 times because there are 9 marbles and the orange marble is 1 out of those 9 marbles. If you multiply 6*9= 54 then you notice there is a 6/54 chance of picking any 1 marble out of the 54 times that you decide to pick marbles.

In a right triangle, the measure of one acute angle is 12 more than twice the measure of the other acute angle. Find the measure
soldi70 [24.7K]

Given:

In a right triangle, the measure of one acute angle is 12 more than twice the measure of the other acute angle.

To find:

The measures of the 2 acute angles of the triangle.

Solution:

Let x be the measure of one acute angle. Then the measure of another acute is (2x+12).

According to the angle sum property, the sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. So,

x+(2x+12)+90=180

3x+102=180

3x=180-102

3x=78

Divide both sides by 3.

x=\dfrac{78}{3}

x=26

The measure of one acute angle is 26 degrees. So, the measure of another acute angle is:

2x+12=2(26)+12

2x+12=52+12

2x+12=64

Therefore, the measures of two acute angles are 26° and 64° respectively.
