UNO [17]3 years ago

Answer:

A. 32.08

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure given is a right triangle. We would apply trigonometric ratios formula to find x.

Reference angle = 58°

Hypotenuse = x

Adjacent length = 17

Thus, we would apply the following:

Cos(\theta) = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}

Plug in the values

Cos(58) = \frac{17}{x}

Multiply both sides by x

Cos(58) \times x = \frac{17}{x} \times x

Cos(58) \times x = 17

Divide both sides by Cos(58)

\frac{Cos(58) \times x}{Cos(58)} = \frac{17}{Cos(58)}

x = \frac{17}{Cos(58)}

x = 32.08 (2 d.p)

Coefficient x^2 in the expansion of (2+x)^5
Monica [59]
Alright, expand the given equation:
(2+x) (2+x) (2+x) (2+x) (2+x)
Use FOIL method and distribution to solve
At the final answer, find the x^2 and the number that multiplies to it is the coefficient
I can't do the actually expansion for you, it would take a decently long time. You should be able to, its a good practice. Good luck!

A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 21. What is the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or an 8? Round to nea
Viktor [21]

Answer: 0.476

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A = Event of choosing an even number ball.

B = Event of choosing an 8 .

Given, A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 21.

Sample space: S= {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,...., 21}

n(S) = 21

Then, A= {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)}

i.e. n(A)= 10

B= {8}

n(B) = 1

A∪B = {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)} = A

n(A∪B)=10

Now, the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or an 8 is

P(A\cup B)=\dfrac{n(A\cup B)}{n(S)}

=\dfrac{10}{21}\approx0.476

Hence, the required probability =0.476
