Answer: 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Experimental probability is the actual result you get from an experement.

Theoretical probability is the change that you will get that result.

(for example: flipping a coin, the Theoretical probability is 50/50 but after testing the Experimental probability might be 47/53)

therefore,

1/6 is the Theoretical probability because you are using a six-sided number cube.

for the Theoretical probability and the Experimental probability to be the same, the fraction of the roll must equal 1/6.

1/6 equals 8/48.

therefore, since the numbers 1 and 6 were both rolled 8 times out of 48 they are consistant with the Theoretical probability of 1/6.

6 is not one of the answer choices listed so 1 must be your answer.

A 20 ft. ladder is used against a 15 ft. wall. What is the measure of the angle made by the ladder and the ground (nearest whole

Brrunno [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The length of a ladder, H = 20 feet

The height of the wall, h = 15 ft

We know that,

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{h}{H}$

h is perpendicular and H is hypotenuse

So,

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{15}{20}\\\\\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{15}{20})\\\\\theta=48.59^{\circ}$

Now using Pythagoras theoerm,

$b=\sqrt{H^2-h^2}\\\\b=\sqrt{20^2-15^2}\\\\b=13.2\ ft$

Hence, the angle made by the ladder and the ground is 48.59° and the ladder is 13.2 feet from the wall on the ground.

Determine the measure of angle A

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

63*

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you need to do is find the value of x. What I did for this was trial and error. I tried a number, and if it was too big, I tried a smaller one. If you add up all of the angles, it should equal up to 180*, so I kept on doing this until I added up to 180.

The answer I got was x=8, so I plugged this into the equation for A and solved. 9x8 is 72, and 72-9 is 63.

Therefore, 63 is the correct answer.
