A computer randomly puts a point inside the rectangle. What is the probability that the point lands in triangle T?

Mathematics

Serjik [45]3 years ago

Answer:

87.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the entire rectangle is 8 by 6,

8x6=48 so the area is 48 units^2.

The area of the triangle is A=1/2bh

A=1/2(2)(6)

A=1(6)

A=6 units^2

6/48=0.125

0.125=12.5%

You need to find the percent it will not land in the triangle, so subtract 12.5 from 100.

100-12.5=87.5

There is an 87.5% chance it will not land in the triangle

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The profit of the company will be $224.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of profit be termed as E(x)

we are given

amount of purchasing the policy (let a)= $1000

probability that women will live for at least 1  year (let b) = 0.9581

amount lost by insurance company if the women dies (let c) = 18,500-1000 = 17,500

the probability woman dies within one year (let d) = 1-0.9581=0.0419

the equation will be

E(x) of profit= a*b - c*d = 1000*0.9581 - 17500*0.0419

                    = 958.1 - 733.25

                    =  224.85

find an equation of the tangent line to the curve at the given point. y=sqrt(x) (1,1) Ive never been good with these equations a
Nady [450]
Equation of a tangent line of a curve is:
y- y0 = f´ (x0) (x - x0 ).   In this case: x0=1, y0=1
f´(x)=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x} }(Derivation)
f´(x0)=\frac{1}{2}
y - 1 = 1/2 ( x - 1 )
y - 1 = 1/2 x - 1/2
y = 1/2 x - 1/2 + 1
y =\frac{1}{2}x+ \frac{1}{2}

Which of the following could be the lengths of the sides of a 30°-60°-90° triangle?
Inga [223]
According to Pythagoras theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2

similarly ,

3^2+ 4^2= 5^2

9+16=25
25=25

LHS=RHS
so angle of triangle is 30 , 60 and 90

answer is 3,4,5
