Write out the numbers between 24 and 33: {24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33}
How many numbers have we here? 10.
How many of these numbers are odd? {25, 27, 29, 31, 33}
Strictly speaking, "between 24 and 33" does not include {24, 33}.
Thus, the odd numbers between 24 and 33 are {25, 27, 29, 31}
The chances of drawing an odd number between 24 and 33 are then 4 / 10.
If, however, we omit the endpoints 24 and 33, then there are 8 numbers between 24 and 33: {25, 27, 29, 31}
and the odds of choosing an odd number from these eight numbers is 4/8, or 1/2, or 0.50.
Answer:
x = 1/4
y = -1/2
z = 9/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have a system of 3 equations with 3 variables:
4*x + 2*y + 1 = 1
2*x - y = 1
x + 3*y + z = 1
The first step to solve this, is to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, let's isolate "y" in the second equation:
2*x - y = 1
2*x - 1 = y
Now that we have an expression equivalent to "y", we can replace this in the other two equations:
4*x + 2*(2*x - 1) + 1 = 1
x + 3*(2*x - 1) + z = 1
Now let's simplify these two equations:
8*x - 1 = 1
7*x - 3 + z = 1
Now, in the first equation we have only the variable x, so we can solve that equation to find the value of x:
8*x - 1 = 1
8*x = 1 + 1 = 2
x = 2/8 = 1/4
Now that we know the value of x, we can replace this in the other equation to find the value of z.
7*(1/4) -3 + z = 1
7/4 - 3 + z = 1
z = 1 + 3 - 7/4
z = 4 - 7/4
z = 16/4 - 7/4 = 9/4
z = 9/4
Now we can use the equation y = 2*x - 1 and the value of x to find the value of y:
y = 2*(1/4) - 1
y = 2/4 - 1
y = 1/2 - 1
y = -1/2
Then the solution is:
x = 1/4
y = -1/2
z = 9/4
Answer:

using the cosine ratio;
From the question, the side of the right angle triangle that is adjacent to the measured <a,(i.e BAC) is AC=24 and the hypotenuse is AB=25
This implies that,
