<h3>Answer:   Choice C)    9/100</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

We have these two events

  • A = the coin lands on tails
  • B = the number cube (aka dice) lands on '2'

The experimental (aka empirical) probabilities of each are

  • P(A) = 36/80 = 9/20
  • P(B) = 16/80 = 1/5

Note how P(A) is not 1/2 like we expect; however it's fairly close because 9/20 = 0.45 while 1/2 = 0.5 in slight contrast. The experimental probability never 100% lines up with the theoretical probability, but will get closer as you do more trials (due to the law of large numbers). A similar situation happens with P(B). The theoretical probability would be P(B) = 1/6 = 0.1667

Events A and B are independent, which allows us to multiply the probabilities:

P(A and B) = probability of getting tails and rolling a '2'

P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B)

P(A and B) = (9/20)*(1/5)

P(A and B) = (9*1)/(20*5)

P(A and B) = 9/100 which points the answer to choice C

--------------

Slight alternative method:

P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B) = (36/80)*(16/80) = 0.09 = 9/100

this method involves typing (36/80)*(16/80) into your calculator.

What is the measure of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle if one of its base angle measures 34° and it’s congruent sides
KIM [24]

Let the vertex angle be x.

Base angles in the isosceles triangle are congruent.

Let the base angles be α=34°

Total sum of the inner angles in the triangle is 180°.

We can make equation

2α+x=180° => x=180-2α=180-68=112

The measure of the vertex angle is 112°

Good luck!!!

PLEASE HELP! I need both and can’t figure out the answer!
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

a) 11.75 * 10^6

b) 1.35 * 10^-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the sum and the difference

a) That would be;

(3.48 + 8.27) * 10^6

= 11.75 * 10^6

b) That would be;

(9.58-8.23) * 10^-7 = 1.35 * 10^-7

Find the slope of a line perpendicular to y = -2/5x + 4/5
valkas [14]
To find a perpendicular line, you need to find the negative reciprocal of the slope.

-2/5 flips into -5/2
Since -2/5 is negative, -5/2 turns positive, so 5/2.

Therefore, the slope of a line perpendicular to Y = -2/5x + 4/5 is 5/2
