A high school band director has 120 students in his marching band. The marching band plays at all football games, so the band mu

st travel by school bus to each away game. The band director knows that each school bus holds 60 students. Which of the following best describes a method of assigning the band students to the two school buses so that each band student has a fair chance of being selected for either school bus?

Answer:

Randomly assign each student an unique number ranging from 1 to 120. Label colored balls with each number that is assigned to a student. Place all of the labeled balls into a bin, and randomly select 60 balls. The students with numbers found on the first 60 randomly selected balls will be assigned to the first school bus, and the remaining 60 students will be assigned to the second school bus.

<h3>Answer:  -4/3</h3>

=============================================================

Explanation:

Let's square both sides and do a bit of algebra to get the following.

\sin(x) + \cos(x) = 1/5\\\\\left(\sin(x) + \cos(x)\right)^2 = \left(1/5\right)^2\\\\\sin^2(x) + 2\sin(x)\cos(x) + \cos^2(x) = 1/25\\\\\sin^2(x) + \cos^2(x) + 2\sin(x)\cos(x) = 1/25\\\\1 + 2\sin(x)\cos(x) = 1/25\\\\\sin(2x) = 1/25 - 1\\\\\sin(2x) = 1/25 - 25/25\\\\\sin(2x) = -24/25\\\\

Now apply the pythagorean trig identity to determine cos(2x) based on this. You should find that cos(2x) = -7/25

This then means tan(2x) = sin(2x)/cos(2x) = 24/7.

From here, you'll use this trig identity

\tan(2x) = \frac{2\tan(x)}{1-\tan^2(x)}\\\\

which is the same as solving

\tan(2x) = \frac{2w}{1-w^2}\\\\

where w = tan(x)

Plug in tan(2x) = 24/7 and solve for w to get w = -4/3 or w = 3/4

So either tan(x) = -4/3 or tan(x) = 3/4.

If we were to numerically solve the original equation for x, then we'd get roughly x = 2.21; then notice how tan(2.21) = -1.345 approximately when your calculator is in radian mode.

Since tan(x) < 0 in this case, we go for tan(x) = -4/3

M∠GFZ = 38°, m∠ZFE = 2x+ 125, and m∠GFE = x+ 163. Find x.
igomit [66]

Answer:

equation : 38 + 2x + 125 = x + 163

x : 0

if GFE is the entire thing, and GFZ and ZFE are adjacent angle(connected by a line), then GFZ + ZFE = GFE

hope this helps :)

Discuss the validity of the following statement. If the statement is always​ true, explain why. If​ not, give a counterexample.
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

P(E \cup F)=P(E)+P(F).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement

If P(E)+P(F)=P(E \cup F)+P(E \cap F), then E and F are mutually exclusive events.

If two events are mutually exclusive, they have no elements in common. Thus, P(E∩F)=0.

Therefore, the statement is always true as P(E∩F)=0

For mutually exclusive events:

P(E \cup F)=P(E)+P(F).
