Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is right triangle trig. The side opposite the x is 8, and the side adjacent to the x is 5. The tangent ratio uses those sides. We need to find what angle has a tangent of 8/5. To do this, make sure your calculator is in degree mode. Then hit "2nd" then tan and you will see tan with a little -1 and a parenthesis. Enter 8/5 and hit "enter" and you will get an angle measure of 57.9946. Rounded to the nearest degree this is 58 degrees. That's your answer!

Answer:

b $\displaystyle 58$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to determine which trigonometric ratio to use, depending on what is displayed for us, and we will be using the cotangent [or tangent] ratio, however, since we are solving for an angle measure, we must use the inverse:

$\displaystyle cot^{-1}\: \frac{5}{8} ≈ 57,99461679° ≈ 58° \\ \\ OR \\ \\ tan{-1}\: 1\frac{3}{5} ≈ 57,99461679° ≈ 58°$

Extended Information on Trigonometric Ratios

$\displaystyle \frac{OPPOSITE}{HYPOTENUSE} = sin\:θ \\ \frac{ADJACENT}{HYPOTENUSE} = cos\:θ \\ \frac{OPPOSITE}{ADJACENT} = tan\:θ \\ \frac{HYPOTENUSE}{ADJACENT} = sec\:θ \\ \frac{HYPOTENUSE}{OPPOSITE} = csc\:θ \\ \frac{ADJACENT}{OPPOSITE} = cot\:θ$

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

a) 0.7412 = 74.12% probability that all the three orders will be filled correctly.

b) 0.0009 = 0.09% probability that none of the three will be filled correctly

c) 0.0245 = 2.45% probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly.

d) 0.9991 = 99.91% probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly

e) 0.0082 = 0.82% probability that only your order will be filled correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

For each order, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is filled correctly, or it is not. Orders are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

The percentage of orders filled correctly at Burger King was approximately 90.5%.

This means that $p = 0.905$

You and 2 friends:

So 3 people in total, which means that $n = 3$

a. What is the probability that all the three orders will be filled correctly?

This is P(X = 3).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.905)^{3}.(0.095)^{0} = 0.7412$

0.7412 = 74.12% probability that all the three orders will be filled correctly.

b. What is the probability that none of the three will be filled correctly?

This is P(X = 0).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.905)^{0}.(0.095)^{3} = 0.0009$

0.0009 = 0.09% probability that none of the three will be filled correctly.

c. What is the probability that one of the three will be filled correctly?

This is P(X = 1).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{3,1}.(0.905)^{1}.(0.095)^{2} = 0.0245$

0.0245 = 2.45% probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly.

d. What is the probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly?

This is

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)$

With what we found in b:

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0009 = 0.9991$

0.9991 = 99.91% probability that at least one of the three will be filled correctly.

e. What is the probability that only your order will be filled correctly?

Yours correctly with 90.5% probability, the other 2 wrong, each with 9.5% probability. So

$p = 0.905*0.095*0.095 = 0.0082$

0.0082 = 0.82% probability that only your order will be filled correctly
