Answer: A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Dependent events mean that one event depends on the outcome of the previous event.

A) If the first roll is a 3, and we want to sum more than 7 with the second roll, then the possible outcomes 5 and 6. Now if the first roll is 4, then the possible outcomes for the second event will be 4, 5 and 6. So you can see how the outcome space of the second event changes depending on the first event, so the events are dependent.

B) Here we do not have dependence, each event only depends on it's own outcome.

C) Again, both events only depend on it's own outcome, so the events are not dependent.

D) This is similar as the case for A, these events are dependent because is not the same if the outcome of the first event is 3, than if the outcome is 5 (the outcome needed for the second roll changes depending on the outcome of the first event)

E) Same as B and C, the events are independent.

Given P(A)=0.5P(A)=0.5, P(B)=0.71P(B)=0.71 and P(A\cap B)=0.415P(A∩B)=0.415, find the value of P(A|B)P(A∣B), rounding to the nea

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

0.585

Step-by-step explanation:

P(A|B) = P(A∩B) / P(B)

P(A|B) = 0.415 / 0.71

P(A|B) = 0.585

Let's start with the drawing. (See the drawing at the bottom of this answer.)

Draw a vertical segment.
At the bottom endpoint, draw a horizontal segment to the right.
The angle at the bottom left is a right angle.
So far this should look like an "L" shape.
The vertical segment is the wall, and the horizontal segment is the ground.

Now draw a segment that connects the right endpoint of the horizontal segment and the top endpoint of the vertical segment. Now you have a right triangle. The diagonal segment represents the ladder. The diagonal segment is the hypotenuse. Label the diagonal segment, the hypotenuse, 12 ft.
Label the vertical segment, the wall, 11.8 ft.

The angle at the bottom right is A. It is the angle the ladder makes with the ground. This angle cannot be greater than 75 degrees.

Now we use trigonometry to find the measure of angle A.

For this right triangle, and its angle A, you have a hypotenuse that measures 12 ft, and an opposite leg that measures 11.8 ft.
We need to find angle A.
The trig ratio that relates the opposite leg and the hypotenuse is the sine.

$\sin A = \dfrac{opp}{hyp}$

$\sin A = \dfrac{11.8}{12}$

$\sin A = 0.98333$

Since the sine of angle A equals 0.98333, we use the inverse sine function to find the measure of angle A.

$A = \sin^{-1} 0.98333$

$A = 79.5^\circ$

Answer:
The angle the ladder makes with the ground is 79.5 degrees which is greater than 75 degrees, so the ladder it will be unsafe in this position.

The grid you see below is in the shape of a rectangle. What is the area, in square units, of the shaded part?

kherson [118]

Answer:

8 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of the shaded part (right triangle ) is calculated as

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ × area of rectangle
