Answer:

20cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Area= 80cm^2

we know that the expression for the area of a triangle is

A= 1/2B*H

from the given expression 1/2(8h) =80 the base is 8cm

let us substitute to find the height h

1/2(8h) =80

4h=80

h= 80/4

h= 20cm

Hence the heigth h is 20cm

Answer:

$\mathbf{ 0.6 \times 0.5 = 0.3 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M denote the event that the stock makes money and D denote the event that the stock pays dividends.

It is given that $P(M) = 0.6$

Observe that the two events M and D are not independent because if the stock doesn't make money then it will not pay dividends. Therefore the event $D | M^{c}$ (D given M does not occur) is a null event, i.e

$P(D|M^{c}) = 0$

It is also given that,

$P(D|M) = 0.5$

Recall that : $P(D|M) = \frac{P(D \cap M)}{P(M)}$

Here, we are required to find $P(D \cap M)$

$P(D \cap M) =P(D|M) \times P(M)= 0.5 \times 0.6 = 0.3$

Answer:

A = -2.2

B = -1.7

C = 1.87

D = 19.97

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 7.4 - 9.6 = -2.2

B = -2.2 + 0.5 = -1.7

C = -1.1(-1.7) = 1.87

D = 18.1 + 1.87 = 19.97
