Answer:

Odds against the events are 7/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

Odds in favor of event = 2 : 9 or 2/9

Let,

These odds are out of 1.

The odds against the event would be

Odds against = 1 - 2/9

Odds against = $\frac{9-2}{9}$

Odds against = $\frac{7}{9}$

Therefore,

Odds against the events are 7/9.

Answer:

$9450 {m}^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ,

Length of the tank = 27m

Width of the tank = 35m

Depth of the tank = 10m

Therefore, 

Volume of the tank = Length × Width × Depth

= 27m × 35m × 10m

$= 9450 {m}^{3} (ans)$

What is the arc measure of abc in degrees

Virty [35]

Given:

The measure of arc AB is (4y + 6)°

The measure of arc BC is (20y - 11)°

The measure of arc AC is (7y - 7)°

We need to determine the measure of arc ABC.

Value of y:

The value of y is given by

$m \widehat{AB}+m \widehat{BC}+ m \widehat{AC}=360$

Substituting the values, we get;

$4y+6+20y-11+7y-7=360$

Adding the like terms, we have;

$31y-12=360$

Adding both sides of the equation by 12, we have;

$31y=372$

$y=12$

Thus, the value of y is 12.

Measure of arc ABC:

The measure of arc ABC can be determined by adding the measure of arc AB and arc BC.

Thus, we have;

$m \widehat{ABC}=m \widehat{AB}+ m \widehat{BC}$

$m \widehat{AB}+m \widehat {BC}=4y+6+20y-11$

$=24y-5$

Substituting y = 12, we get;

$m \widehat{AB}+m \widehat {BC}=24(12)-5$

$=288-5$

$m \widehat{AB}+m \widehat {BC}=283^{\circ}$

Thus, the measure of arc ABC is 283°

Please answer quick and right

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it states it needs to be cut into pieces, it's division, so since it's division we do KCF - keep change flip

We keep the first term, then we change the sign to a multiplication sign and flip the numerator and the denominator for the second term, so your equation would be :

6/8 × 4/1

6 times 4 would be 24, then we put 24 over 8, 24/8, - then you just divide 24 by 8 which would be 3. I hope this helps.

Name the relationship A.complementary B.linear pair C.vertical D.adjacent

Tom [10]

Answer:

∠a and ∠b are the adjacent angles.

Therefore, option D i.e. adjacent is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the angles

∠a

∠b

We know that the two angles are termed as the adjacent angles when they share the:

common vertex

common side

From the given diagram, we are given the angles ∠a and ∠b.

It is clear that angles ∠a and ∠b have a common vertex and common side.

Therefore, the relationship between the angles ∠a and ∠b is 'adjacent'.

In other words, ∠a and ∠b are the adjacent angles.

Please note that the given relation can not be a 'linear pair' because the sum of two angles is NOT a straight line or 180°.

Therefore, option D i.e. adjacent is the correct option.
