Answer:

a) 0.0004

b) 0.9604

c) 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

When trying to find the probability of a sequence occurring you would simply need to multiply the probability of both of those things occurring together. Since the probability of an alternator failing is 0.02 then the probability of both failing would be...

0.02 * 0.02 = 0.0004

Now the probability of an alternator not failing is 0.98 (100% or 1 minus 0.02) therefore, the probability of both failing would be...

0.98 * 0.98 = 0.9604

Finally, the probability of one or the other failing would simply be the same as the probability of a single alternator failing which is 0.02

Name 4 points that would form a square with the origin at is center.
zheka24 [161]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (2, 3), (-3, 2), (-2, -3), (3, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can pick any point you like, then rotate it around the origin to the four quadrants (or axes) by the transformation ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x) . . . . . . . . . 90° rotation CCW

That is a rotation 90° CCW. Of course a rotation CW can do the same thing for you.

__

One possible square is ...

     (2, 3), (-3, 2), (-2, -3), (3, -2)

How to solve inscribed angles
alisha [4.7K]
If it involves an Arc, the inscribed angle is 1/2 of the measure of the are across from it. If the figure inscribed in a quadrilateral, opposite angles are supplementary (when added together equals 180 degrees) This is all I know :)

2.) If ZA = (20 – 2m)º and ZD = (m – 130°, what is the value of m? ​
vivado [14]

Answer:

m = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ D and ∠ A are vertically opposite angles and are congruent , then

m - 130 = 20 - 2m ( add 2m to both sides )

3m - 130 = 20 ( add 130 to both sides )

3m = 150 ( divide both sides by 3 )

m = 50

Which graphs represent functions?? please help me
muminat

Answer:

graph D

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to figure out if a graph is a function, try the vertical line test

The vertical line test is when you are able to draw a vertical line on any point of the graph, and the line you have drawn will only pass through the graph once. if it passes the graph more than one time, it is not a function
