So, to find the answer you'd first add up how many patients you have:
20+50+100 = 170.
In a fraction your total would go on the bottom. Then you'd take how many patients are taking a real drug, which is represented by 20+50 = 70. This number would go on top.

So, the probability of a patient NOT getting a placebo is 70/170. Simplified would be 7/17. 

The answer is D. 7/17.

a sector with the central angle measure of 4pi/5 (in radians) has a radius of 5 cm. What is the area of the sector? PLS HELP :(
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Area of the sector = 31.42 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the area of a sector is,

Area = \frac{\theta}{2\pi }(\pi r^{2} )

Here θ = central angle subtended by the arc (in radians)

r = radius of the circle

Now substitute the values given in the formula,

Area of the sector = \frac{\frac{4\pi }{5}}{2\pi }\times \pi (5)^2

                              = \frac{4\pi }{10\pi } \times (25\pi)

                              = \frac{100}{10}\times \pi

                              = 10π

                              = 31.416

                              ≈ 31.42 cm²
