Answer:

(b)0.56

(c)0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

P(Ben Pass) =0.8

Therefore: P(Ben fails)=1-0.8 =0.2

P(Tom Pass) =0.7

Therefore: P(Tom fails)=1-0.7 =0.3

See attached for the completed tree diagram

(b)Probability that both will pass

P(both will pass)=P(Ben pass and Tom pass)

=P(Ben pass) X P(Tom pass)

=0.8 X 0.7

=0.56

(c)The probability that only one of them will pass

Since either Tom or Ben can pass, we have:

P(only one of them will pass)

=P(Ben pass and Tom fails OR Ben Fails and Tom Pass)

=P(Ben pass and Tom fails)+P(Ben Fails and Tom Pass)

=(0.8 X 0.3) + (0.2 X 0.7)

=0.24 + 0.14

=0.38

A and B are complementary angles if angle a equals (X +24) and angle B equals (X +16) then what is the measurement of b
Hatshy [7]

If A and B are complementary angles, then they add up to 90 degrees.

So A + B = 90 => (x + 24) + (x + 16) = 90 => 2x + 40 = 90 => 2x = 50.

So x = 25, and thus, the measurement of B is (25 + 16) = 41.

The measurement of angle A is (25 + 24) = 49, and indeed they are complementary.

Pls help me .question no 14
Alex_Xolod [135]

Question 14, Part (i)

Focus on quadrilateral ABCD. The interior angles add to 360 (this is true for any quadrilateral), so,

A+B+C+D = 360

A+90+C+90 = 360

A+C+180 = 360

A+C = 360-180

A+C = 180

Since angles A and C add to 180, this shows they are supplementary. This is the same as saying angles 2 and 3 are supplementary.

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

Question 14, Part (ii)

Let

x = measure of angle 1

y = measure of angle 2

z = measure of angle 3

Back in part (i) above, we showed that y + z = 180

Note that angles 1 and 2 are adjacent to form a straight line, so we can say

x+y = 180

-------

We have the two equations x+y = 180 and y+z = 180 to form this system of equations

\begin{cases}x+y = 180\\y+z = 180\end{cases}

Which is really the same as this system

\begin{cases}x+y+0 = 180\\0+y+z = 180\end{cases}

The 0s help align the y terms up. Subtracting straight down leads to the equation x-z = 0 and we can solve to get x = z. Therefore showing that angle 1 and angle 3 are congruent. We could also use the substitution rule to end up with x = z as well.
