Answer: Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing

n ( 1 + n )

Step-by-step explanation:

P( Bob hits target ) = 1/3

P( Eve hits target ) = 2/3

P( Carol hits target ) = 1

<u>Compute the P that Bob wins in a duel against Eve alone</u>

P(Bob hits the target in first shot ) = n = 1/3

P(Bob hits the target in second shot ) = n^2 = ( 1/3 * 1/3 ) = 1/9

hence the probability of Bob winning( i.e. P( Bob wins Event E1  ) = n + n^2 = n ( 1 + n )

The measures of two complementary angles are m angle 1 = (10x+7) and m angle 2=(9x-12) find the measures of both angles
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

m<1 = 57°

m<2 = 33°

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the numerical measure of both angles, let's come up with an equation to determine the value of x.

Given that m<1 = (10x +7)°, and m<2 = (9x - 12)°, where both are complementary angles, therefore, it means, both angles will add up to give us 90°.

Equation we can generate from this, is as follows:

(10x + 7)° + (9x - 12)° = 90°

Solve for x

10x + 7 + 9x - 12 = 90

Combine like terms

19x - 5 = 90

Add 5 to both sides

19x = 90 + 5 (addition property not equality)

19x = 95

Divide both sides by 19

x = 5

m<1 = (10x +7)°

Replace x with 5

m<1 = 10(5) + 7 = 50 + 7 = 57°

m<2 = (9x - 12)

Replace x with 5

m<2 = 9(5) - 12 = 45 - 12 = 33°
