Given:

A triangle ABC.

The given expression for b is:

b=\sqrt{m+n-pq}

To find:

The expression that is equivalent to b.

Solution:

According to the Law of Cosines,

b^2=a^2+c^2-2ac\cos B

It can be written as:

b=\sqrt{a^2+c^2-2ac\cos B}              ...(i)

We have,

b=\sqrt{m+n-pq}                                ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

m=a^2

n=c^2

p=2ac

q=\cos B

Therefore, the required values are m=a^2,n=c^2,p=2ac,q=\cos B.

What is the probability that a group of five friends all have different birthdays? Show all of your work for full credit.
patriot [66]

Answer: 0.98630136986

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 365 possible birthdays. The key to assigning the probability is to think in terms of complements: “Two (or more) people share a birthday” is the complement of “All people in the group have different birthdays.” Each probability is 1 minus the other. What is the probability that any two people have different birthdays? The first person could have any birthday (p = 365÷365 = 1), and the second person could then have any of the other 364 birthdays (p = 364÷365). Multiply those two and you have about 0.9973 as the probability that any two people have different birthdays, or 1−0.9973 = 0.0027 as the probability that they have the same birthday. If you have a group of five, it would mean your equation would have to be (p=360÷365)
