Answer:

14.72% probability that both professors get their grants funded

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events:

If two events, A and B are independent, the probability of both happening is:

P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B)

In this question:

Event A: Professor Jane is funded

Event B: Professor Joe is funded.

Professor Jane has a probability of 0.64 of being funded.

This means that P(A) = 0.64

Professor Joe has probability 0.23 of being funded.

This means that P(B) = 0.23

What is the probability that both professors get their grants funded

P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B) = 0.64*0.23 = 0.1472

14.72% probability that both professors get their grants funded

What is the length of the arc on a circle with radius 21 in intercepted by a 25° angle? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the length of an arc is expressed as

Length of arc = θ/360 × 2πr

Where

θ is the central angle formed at the center of the circle.

r represents the radius of the circle.

π represents a constant whose value is 3.14

From the information given,

r = 21 inches

θ = 25 degrees

Length of arc formed = 25/360 × 2 × 3.14 × 21 = 9.2 inches,

Answer:

? = 74.64111442

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{sin(x)}{27}=\frac{sin(90)}{28}

       =\frac{1}{28}

        *27

        =\frac{27}{28}

sin^{-1}(27/28)

=74.64111442
