Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that on a six-question multiple-choice test there are five possible answers for each question, of which one is correct and four are incorrect

By mere guessing probability for choosing correct answer = p = 0.2

also each question is independent of the other

Hence if X is the number of correct questions then

X is binomial with p = 0.2 and n = 6

a) being correct on three questions,

=P(X=3) = 0.08192

(b) being correct on four questions,

= P(X=4) = 0.01536

(c) being correct on all six questions

=P(x=6) = 0.000064

Given that a=43 ,b=82 , and c=28, solve triangle abc. round to the nearest tenth.
Virty [35]

Answer:

NO triangle exists.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the sides of the triangle are  a=43 ,b=82 , and c=28

To solve for unknown angles of the triangle

PLease refresh the triangle rule of inequality that the sum of any two sides is always greater than the third side

Before solving the triangle, let us check whether this is true.

a+b >c

b+c>a

But a+c is not greater than b.

Hence there cannot be any real triangle with these sides given.

Answer is no triangle exists.

If the lowest temperature in Whitesboro for the week was -1°F and the highest temperature was 20°F, what was the total change in
Talja [164]
Answer: The total change is 21.

Since you want to find the change from the lowest to highest, make it into a subtraction problem. First of all, take the smallest number in front of the largest.

20 -1

Next, add a minus sign in between, your equation should look like this:

20 - (-1) = x

Then, you cancel out the negative signs. After that you solve it

20 - (-1) -> 20 + 1.

Lastly, you add them together.

20 + 1 = 21.

In conclusion, the answer is 21.

A wheelchair ramp is in the shape of a triangular prism. it has a base area of 37.4 square yards and a height of 5 yards. find t
mina [271]
It's not the volume of the ramp, it's the angle. 

anyways here's how to use trig to find the answer:

Tan <A= opposite/ adjacent 
Tan <A= 5.0/ 37.4

<A= tan-1 (5.0/ 37.4)

<A= 7.61 degrees.

I don't know which one is the correct answer? PLEASE HELP!!​
alukav5142 [94]
The answer is 1/q^30 because after simplifying, you can cancel out the p and then you get q^q-20 times q^-10 to get q^-30 which then equals 1/q^30
