Answer:
3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
sin is opposite divided by the hypotenuse ( longest side)
18 is the opposite of angle x and the hypotenuse is 30
18/30 = 3/5
Dividing the number of successful outcomes by the number of possible outcomes is the definition of the probability of the given event.
P(E)=n(E)/n(S)
example. let the Experiment be throwing a dice. The sample space, all the possible outcomes, is the set S={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 } and n(S)=6
Let the even E be: getting an even number. The successful outcomes set is E {2, 4, 6 } and n(E)=3
So probability of getting an even number is P(E)=n(E)/n(S)=3/6=0.5
Answer: Probability of the given Event
a) if the two gloves someone receives might both be for the left hand or right hand.
b) if each sister gets one left and one right.
Soln:
a) So i thought about dissectng the problem first into finding the number of ways in which I could make pairs of gloves:
C(12, 2)
then I asked how many ways could the sets of gloves be assigned amongst the 6 sisters:
<span><span>6!</span><span>6!</span></span>
and taking the product of this would give me the amount of ways this could occur:
= C(12,2) * 6!
then for part b)
using this same idea except:
C(6,1) C(6,1) for the left and right glove each .
the C(6,1)*C(6,1)*6!
Right way to think them through?
