Answer:

The difference between the two is that in a dependent event an action will affect the ultimate outcome, but in an independent event an action won't affect the ultimate outcome. A way to tell is if the total number of the "item" at hand will be affected by the action the question is saying. In the case of the example given, that is a dependent event because the total of marbles you started with is changed due to you not replacing the one you first took. Therefore the probability is now different.

Answer:

$sin\theta=\dfrac{1}{2}$

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

<h3>Given</h3>

$cos \theta=\dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$

The value of $sin\theta$

<h3>Solution</h3>

Use <u>identity</u> $sin^2\theta+cos^2\theta=1$ :

$sin^2\theta=1-cos^2\theta$
$sin^2\theta=1-(\dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{2} )^2$
$sin^2\theta=1-\dfrac{{3} }{4}$
$sin^2\theta=\dfrac{{1} }{4}$
$sin\theta=\sqrt{\dfrac{{1} }{4} }$
$sin\theta={\dfrac{{1} }{2} }$

Simplify. –24 – 8 ÷ (–4) <br> A. –22 <br> B. –8 <br> C. –26 <br> D. 8

pishuonlain [190]

Hi there! The answer is A. - 22

We can use PEMDAS to find our answer, which says divide first (before adding).

- 24 - 8 : (-4) =

Since we divide two negative numbers, we end up with a positive value.
- 24 + 2 =

Now we can add
-24 + 2 = -22

3 times a number is 54 less than the square of that number

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

3n = n² - 54

n² - 3n - 54 = 0

n² - 9n + 6n - 54 = 0

n(n - 9) + 6(n - 9) = 0

(n - 9)(n + 6) = 0

n = 9 , -6
