we are given

△ABC

we can use area of triangle formula

$A=\frac{1}{2} AB*BC*sin(B)$

we have

AB=6

BC=10

m∠B=120°

so, we can plug it

$A=\frac{1}{2} 6*10*sin(120)$

$A=\frac{1}{2} *60*\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$

$A=15\sqrt{3}$ ..............Answer

A package of 10 batteries is checked to determine if there are any dead batteries. Four batteries are checked. If one or more ar

frutty [35]

Answer:

There is a probability of 76% of not selling the package if there are actually three dead batteries in the package.

Step-by-step explanation:

With a 10-units package of batteries with 3 dead batteries, the sampling can be modeled as a binomial random variable with:

n=4 (the amount of batteries picked for the sample).
p=3/10=0.3 (the proportion of dead batteries).
k≥1 (the amount of dead batteries in the sample needed to not sell the package).

The probability of having k dead batteries in the sample is:

$P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}$

Then, the probability of having one or more dead batteries in the sample (k≥1) is:

$P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)\\\\\\P(x=0) = \dbinom{4}{0} p^{0}q^{4}=1*1*0.7^4=0.2401\\\\\\P(x\geq1)=1-0.2401=0.7599\approx0.76$

a building with a height of 32m casts a shadow that is 20m long. a person standing casts a shadow that is 1.2 m long how tall is

wlad13 [49]

Most of the information's required for solving the question is already given in the question.
Height of the building that casts a shadow of 20 m = 32 m
Then
Height of the man that casts a shadow of 1.2 m = (32/20) * 1.2 meter
= 3.2 * 1.2 meter
= 3.84 meter
So the actual height of the person casting a shadow of 1.2 meter is 3.84 meters. I hope that the procedure used for solving the problem is easy enough for you to understand. You can definitely use this method in future for solving problems of similar type without requiring any additional help from outside.
