a. We can calculate all the sides using the given information.

b. 
- Length of a:
The first thing we are going to do is find the value of theta; to do it we are going to use arcosine: 
cos \alpha = \frac{5}{13}
\alpha =arcos( \frac{5}{13} )
\alpha =67.38

Next, since we know the the length of adjacent side of theta is 12, we can use the trig function cosine to find the length of a:
cos( \alpha )= \frac{adjacent.side}{hypotenuse}
cos(67.38)= \frac{12}{a}
a= \frac{12}{cos(67.38)}
a=31.20

- Length of b:
Since we already find the length of a, we just need to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of b:
b^2=a^2-12^2
b^2=31.20^2-12^2
b= \sqrt{31.20^2-12^2}
b=28.8

- Length of c
We already know the measure of angle theta, so we are going to use the trig function tangent to find the length of b:
tan( \alpha )= \frac{opposite.side}{adjacent.side}
tan(67.38)= \frac{12}{c}
c= \frac{12}{tan(67.38)}
c=5

- Length of d:
Since we already find the length of c, we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of d:
d^2=c^2+12^2
d^2=5^2+12^2
d= \sqrt{5^2+12^2}
d=13

c. We can conclude that we have all the information we need to find the measures of all the sides of our triangles.

If a seed is planted, it has a 80% chance of growing into a healthy plant.

Answer:

0.336

Step-by-step explanation:

Use binomial probability:

P = nCr p^r q^(n-r)

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1-p).

Here, n = 8, r = 7, p = 0.8, and q = 0.2.

P = ₈C₇ (0.8)⁷ (0.2)⁸⁻⁷

P = 0.336

Your family needs a set of 4 tires. which of the following deals would you prefer. explain. 1. Buy 3 get one free,
scZoUnD [109]
Number 1 and number 3 are the same because if you are purchasing three tires that is 75% off the tires you need and one of them you get free. the free one becomes the overall discount of 25% off. number 3 is the same, the one quarter represents 25% off of the purchase.

The coordinates of point F are (15/4 , -5/2)

  • The coordinates of point G  = (-3/4 , -3)

<h3>What is the coordinates  about?</h3>

From the image attached:

AB divided into 4 similar parts, hence

  • E is the mid-point of AB
  • D is the mid-point of AE
  • F is the mid-point of EB

Note that the rule of the mid-point states that:

When M (x , y) is the mid-point of the segment of AB, where A (x1 , y1)  and B (x2 , y2), Then  x = (x1 + x2)/2 and that of  y = (y1 + y2)/2

Then lets solve for points E, F, D

Since A (-3 , -1) and B (6 , -3),

E is the mid-point of AB

Then  E =[(-3 + 6)/2, (-1 + -3)/2]

         = (3/2 , -2)

Since  F is the mid-point of EB,

         E (3/2 , -2) , B (6 , -3)

Then F = [(3/2 + 6)/2 , (-2 + -3)/2]

       = (15/4 , -5/2)

Since D is the mid-point of AE, A (-3 , -1), E (3/2 , -2)

Then  D = [(-3 + 3/2)/2 , (-1 + -2)/2]

           = (-3/4 , -3/2)

Note also that:

 BC is said to be an  horizontal segment due to the fact that B and C have similar y - coordinate and G can be found on BC.

Since the y-coordinate of G is similar to y-coordinate of B and C

Then  y-coordinate of G is =  -3

Since DG ⊥ BC

Then DG =  vertical segment

So  G has similar x-coordinate of D

Then  The x-coordinate of G = -3/4

The  G = (-3/4 , -3)
