Answer:

original cost of meal  = $15.80

Step-by-step explanation:

120% = $18.96 (divide both sides by 120)

1% = $0.158  (multiply both sides by 100)

100% = $15.80

hope this helps...

The equation tan(55) = 15/b can be used to find the length of line AC.what is the length of line AC round to the nearest 10th 3.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

10.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

tan(55) = \frac{15}{b}

Required

Find length AC

The question is not detailed enough; so, I'll assume that b represents line AC.

Having said that;

We start by multiplying both sides by b

tan(55) = \frac{15}{b}

b * tan(55) = \frac{15}{b} * b

b * tan(55) =15

Divide both sides by tan(55)

\frac{b * tan(55)}{tan(55)} = \frac{15}{tan(55)}

b = \frac{15}{tan(55)}

Find tan(55)

b = \frac{15}{1.42814800674}

b = 10.5031130731

b = 10.5  <em>(Approximated)</em>

<em />

Length AC is 10.5

What if we draw three socks from the box instead. what is the probability that we draw a matching pair? (having all three socks
frutty [35]

There is a chance of 1/16*1/15 that she gets the specific socks pair according to laws of probability and the counting principle but thats not how it will work over here.

As we should be guaranteed that she gets the number of socks she obviously must take out around 9 socks as we are taking the worst case scenario where all the socks that come out are the different ones so the ninth sock must match any of the others.

But if we draw three socks obviously the probability is 1/16*1/15*13/14 as we dont want the third one to be same. We can multiply the answer by 3 as it can be in three different orders.
