The probability that at least two of the missiles hit the arsenal:
P ( x ≥ 2 ) = P ( x = 2 ) + P ( x = 3 )
P ( x = 2 ) = 0.75 · 0.85 · 0.1 + 0.85 · 0.9 · 0.25 + 0.75 · 0.9 · 0.15 =
= 0.06375 + 0.10125 + 0.19125 = 0.35625
P ( x = 3 ) = 0.75 · 0.85 · 0.9 = 0.57375
P ( x ≥ 2 ) = 0.35625 + 0.57375 = 0.93
Answer:
The probability is 0.93 or 93%.

One of the Same side angles of two parallel lines is 60° greater than the other. Find the two angles.
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

60,120

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that angles on the same side of the transversal always add up to 180 ( are supplementary)

Hence, taking one of the angles as x we get,

x+(60+x)=180

2x+60=180

2x=120

x=60

Hence, one angle is 60 degrees while the other 120 degrees

Someone plz help with this question. I really appreciate it!

8. D: The <em>longest sides of the quadrilaterals are 30 and 10</em>. That is a 30 : 10 ratio, which simplifies to <em>3 : 1, or </em>3/1. It's not 1 : 3 because it is the ratio between the large (comes first) to the small (comes second) figure.

9. B: <em>x corresponds to 26</em>, and from the previous problem, we figured out that <em>the sides of the larger figure are 3 times larger than the corresponding one on the smaller one</em>. So <em>x is 1/3 the length of 26</em>, which is 26/3.
