Two fair dice are rolled. Determine whether the events are dependent or independent. (a) (the first die shows 3) and (the two di

ce sum to 7); (b) (the first die shows 4) and (the two dice sum to 8).

Answer: The events are independent

a) p = 1/36 b) p = 5/216

Step-by-step explanation: both events are independent because the fact that the first die shows it sample space {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} does not stop the second die from showing it own sample space too which is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

The sample space of first die = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

The sample space of second die = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

The sample space of 2 dice rolled at once is seen as attachment to this answer, find attachment below.

Probability that an event will occur = number of time the event will occur / total number of possible outcome of the event

a)

Probability that first die will show 3 = number of times 3 shows up in the event / total number of outcome of the die = P (3)

P (3) = 1/6

Probability that 2 dice sum up to give 7 = 6/ 36 = 1/6 ( from the sample space for 2 dice attached, it is seen that the sum of 7 comes out 6 times and the total sample space is 36)

P (first die show 3) = 1/6

P ( 2 dice sum to 7) = 1/6

P ( first die show 3) and P ( 2 dice sum to 7) = 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36.

b)

Probability of the first die showing 4 = P(4) = 1/6

Probability of 2 die sum up to give 8 = 5/36

P ( first die show 8) and P ( 2 die sum up to give 8) = 1/6 * 5/36 = 5/216

How are the values of the eights in 880 related
Neko [114]
<span>How the value of 8 in 880 related
=> 880 = 8 hundreds 8 tens
=> This given number is a whole numbers, thus the value of 8 in the hundreds place is ten times larger than the 8 In the tens place. How?
Try multiplying 8 tens by 10
=> 8 tens = 80
=> 80 x 10
=> 800
When 80 is multiplied by ten the answer is 800 and when 800 is divided by 10 the answer is 80.
That concludes that there’s 10 times difference between the two 8s in the given number.</span><span>

Given a 30-60-90 triangle with a long leg of 9 inches, determine the length of the hypotenuse
lianna [129]

A Quick Guide to the 30-60-90 Degree Triangle

The 30-60-90 degree triangle is in the shape of half an equilateral triangle, cut straight down the middle along its altitude. It has angles of 30°, 60°, and 90°. In any 30-60-90 triangle, you see the following: The shortest leg is across from the 30-degree angle, the length of the hypotenuse is always double the length of the shortest leg, you can find the long leg by multiplying the short leg by the square root of 3.

Note: The hypotenuse is the longest side in a right triangle, which is different from the long leg. The long leg is the leg opposite the 60-degree angle.

Two of the most common right triangles are 30-60-90 and the 45-45-90 degree triangles. All 30-60-90 triangles, have sides with the same basic ratio. If you look at the 30–60–90-degree triangle in radians, it translates to the following:

30, 60, and 90 degrees expressed in radians.

The figure illustrates the ratio of the sides for the 30-60-90-degree triangle.

A 30-60-90-degree right triangle.

If you know one side of a 30-60-90 triangle, you can find the other two by using shortcuts. Here are the three situations you come across when doing these calculations:

Type 1: You know the short leg (the side across from the 30-degree angle). Double its length to find the hypotenuse. You can multiply the short side by the square root of 3 to find the long leg.

Type 2: You know the hypotenuse. Divide the hypotenuse by 2 to find the short side. Multiply this answer by the square root of 3 to find the long leg.

Type 3: You know the long leg (the side across from the 60-degree angle). Divide this side by the square root of 3 to find the short side. Double that figure to find the hypotenuse.

Finding the other sides of a 30-60-90 triangle when you know the hypotenuse.

Finding the other sides of a 30-60-90 triangle when you know the hypotenuse.

In the triangle TRI in this figure, the hypotenuse is 14 inches long; how long are the other sides?

Because you have the hypotenuse TR = 14, you can divide by 2 to get the short side: RI = 7. Now you multiply this length by the square root of 3 to get the long side:

The long side of a 30-60-90-degree triangle.
