Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form given the slope is 2 and the y-intercept is -5.

Suppose the names of the months of the year are placed in a hat and a name is drawn at random. (a) list the sample space for thi

ollegr [7]

(a)

The sample space is a set whose elements are all the possible outcomes for the experiment. Since we will extract one of the months of the years, the sample space is the set composed by all the 12 months:

$\Omega = \{ \text{January},\ \text{February},\ldots,\text{December}\}$

(b)

An event is a subset of the sample space. Events are often defined by their properties. In this example, the event E is the subset of the sample space defined as

$E = \{ x \in \Omega: x \text{ starts with the letter J}\}$

So, we have

$E = \{\text{January},\ \text{June},\ \text{July}\}$

(c)

If all outcomes have equal probability, then the probability of an event is the ratio bewteen its cardinality, and the cardinality of the whole sample space:

$P(E) = \dfrac{n(E)}{n(\Omega)} = \dfrac{3}{12} = \dfrac{1}{4}$

In words, since there are three months beginning with J out of 12 months, we have a probability of 3 over 12 to pick a month starting with J, which simplifies to 1 over 4.

Need help simple explanation if possible

Answer:

m < A = 60º

m < B = 30º

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sides on this triangle are: 6, $6\sqrt{3}$ , and 12

Any triangle with the angles of 30º - 60º - 90º always has side lengths in this proportion:

x, $x\sqrt{3}$ , 2x

We can line this up with the given sides. If x is 6, then 2x would be 12.

x : $x\sqrt{3}$ : 2x = 6 : $6\sqrt{3}$ : 12

Angle B is across from 6, the shortest side. That also means that it corresponds to x, or the smallest angle in the proportion, 30º.

m < B = 30º

Solving for < A:

Method 1) Sum of Angles in a Triangle

Since we already know that one angle is right and therefore 90º and m < B is 30º, we can subtract these from the total sum of angle measures in a triangle to get the last angle, < A.

180º - 90º - 30º = 60º

m < A = 60º

Method 2) Using the second part of the proportion

Since m < A is across from the second largest side, we know that it is equal to $x\sqrt{3}$ ( $6\sqrt{3}$ in this question) or 60º in the angle proportion.

This means that m < A = 60º

Let me know if you have any questions!
