There are 2 possibilities for where A can be: one where C is 30° (and A is 60°) and another where C is 60° (and A is 30°). Since it's not specified, we can find both.

30°:
drawing the triangle on a graph, you can see that point C is 4 units above point B, so we know that one side of the triangle is 4. Once we find the other "leg" of the triangle (the one that's parallel to the x-axis), we can just add that value to B to find the x coordinate of A.
If angle C is 30°, using the side ratios of a 30-60-90 triangle, that side is "a√3", and the side we're looking for is a. So, to find a, we just divide 4 by √3. In that case, point A is 4/(√3) units to the right of -2√3. We can rationalize 4/(√3) like this:

(4√3)/3

and then add that to 2√3:

(4√3)/3 + -2√3

(4√3)/3 + (-6√3)/3 = (-2√3)/3

We know that the x-coordinate of A is (-2√3)/3, and the y-coordinate is -1 because B is a right angle and we're just moving horizontally. So, if C is 30° and A is 60°, point A is at ((-2√3)/3, -1).

60°:
in this case, the leg we know is "a" and the leg we're looking for is "a√3". So, we can multiply 4 by √3 to get the distance from B:

4 x √3 = 4√3

4√3 + -2√3 = 2√3

So the x-coordinate of A here is 2√3, and the y-coordinate is still -1: (2√3, -1).

hope that helps! if you liked this answer please rate it as brainliest!! thank you!!!

A group of 12 students goes on a school field trip, 6 are in third grade. which fraction is equivalent to 6 12

Elis [28]

The fraction which is equivalent to 6/12 is 1/2

What does a fraction mean?

In the first place, fraction is a numerical quantity or relationship where one number is expressed in terms of another.

In order to determine the equivalence of 6/12 in fraction , we need reduce 6/12 to the lowest term, since 6 is common to 6 and 12 and that 6 divided by gives 1 and 12/6 gives 2, which means that we are left 1/2

The correct fraction which is equivalent to 6/12 is 1/2

Answer:

0.8254 = 82.54% probability that the mean of this sample is between 19.25 hours and 21.0 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
