Answer:

Option C. 44 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

A-----> the angle of the elevation of the sun

we know that

The tangent of angle A is equal to divide the opposite side angle A by the adjacent side angle A

In this problem

The opposite side is 30 meters

The adjacent side is 31 meters

tan(A)=\frac{30}{31}

A=arctan(\frac{30}{31})=44\°

What is the probability that 2 randomly selected months have 31 days?
aniked [119]

Answer:

31.8%

Step-by-step explanation:There are 7 months that have 31 days so,

The odds the first selected month has 31 days is 7/12

The next month there are only 6 months left with 31 days of only 11 months to choose from

so the odds for the second are 6/11

To calculate the odds they BOTH  have 31 months you multiply the two odds:

(7/12) x (6/11) = 42/132 = .318 so 31.8%

Rewrite this number sentence 50 1/2 divided by 1/4 using multiplication
Shalnov [3]
This division question is asking how many 1/4 you can fit into 50 1/2.

We can fit 4 of them into 1 whole (4 x 1/4 = 1)
We can fit 8 of them into 2 wholes (8 x 1/4 = 2)

and so on.

But we have 50 1/2 wholes, so we would need 50 1/2 x 4.

The new number sentence is 50 1/2 x 4.
