Answer:

14.29% probability that Marlon's friend will think of the number 9

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

There are 7 numbers from 5 to 11(5,6,7,8,9,10,11)

9 is one of them

So

p = \frac{1}{7} = 0.1429

14.29% probability that Marlon's friend will think of the number 9

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to evaluate:

8a-1+0.5b

When a=1/4 and b=10.

We simply substitute the given values of as and b into the given expression,

8a-1+0.5b=8(\frac{1}{4}) -1+0.5(10)\\=2-1+5\\=6

The value of the expression is 6 for the give values of a and b.

Given that tan 0=-4/7 , and 270 degrees <0<360 degrees , what is the exact value of sec0?
Elanso [62]
I take it you meant θ angle, anyway.

we know the tan(θ) = -4/7... alrite, we also know that 270° < θ < 360°, which is another to say that θ is in the IV quadrant, where the adjacent side or "x" value is positive whilst the opposite side or "y" value is negative.

\bf tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{-4}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{7}}\impliedby \textit{now let's find the \underline{hypotenuse}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}&#10;\\\\&#10;c^2=a^2+b^2\implies c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;c=hypotenuse\\&#10;a=adjacent\\&#10;b=opposite\\&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;c=\sqrt{7^2+(-4)^2}\implies \implies c=\sqrt{65}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;sec(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{\sqrt{65}}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{7}}

An airplane is flying from New York City to Los Angeles. The distance it travels in miles, d, is related to the time in seconnds
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

(a)

speed=0.15\frac{miles}{seconds}

(b)

The distance traveled in 30 seconds is 45 miles

(c)

It takes 85 seconds to go 12.75 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

An airplane is flying from New York City to Los Angeles

d is the distance traveled in miles

t is time in second

we have equation as

d=0.15t

(a)

we have to find speed

we can see that our distance equation is in linear form

For finding speed, we can compare our equation with equation of line

and slope of the line will be speed

because slope is the rate of change

y=mt+b

where m is slope

so, we can compare

and we get

m=0.15

so,

speed=0.15\frac{miles}{seconds}

(b)

we can plug t=30 and find d

d=0.15\times 30

d=45 miles

so, The distance traveled in 30 seconds is 45 miles

(c)

we can set d=12.75 and solve for t

12.75=0.15t

t=85

So,

It takes 85 seconds to go 12.75 miles
