Answer:
The answer is 3/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the GCD of both 35 and 15. This is 5.
Then, divide the numerator and denominator by the GCD.
15 ÷ 5/ 35 ÷ 5
This equals 3/7.
8 nickels, because 8 (nickels) × 5 (worth) = 40
24 dimes, because 8 × 3 = 24 24 × 10 = 240
240 + 40 = 280
Answer:
17.7 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use trig to find the height of the triangle. Then the area is bh/2.
Extend side BC to the right until it is vertically below point A. Draw a segment from point A vertically down until it intersects the extension of side BC. Call the point of intersection D. <D is a right angle.
Use triangle ABD to find the height, AD, of triangle ABC.
For <B of 37 deg, AD is the opposite leg. AB is the hypotenuse. The trig ratio that relates the opposite lefg to the hypotenuse is the sine.
sin B = opp/hyp
sin 37 deg = AD/13.1
AD = 13.1 * sin 37 deg
AD = 7.9
AD is the height of triangle ABC. BC is the base. We can find the area of triangle ABC.
area = bh/2
area = (4.5 cm)(7.9 cm)/2
area = 17.7 cm^2
In a throw of 2 fair dice, there are 6*6=36 equiprobability outcomes.
To get a sum of 5, there are 4 ways, (1,4),(2,3),(3,2),(4,1) with probability of 4/36=1/9
To get at least one 5, there are 6+6-1=11 outcomes (note (5,5) has been counted in both, so subtracted from sum). The probability is 11/36
Since the two events are mutually exclusive (once we have a five, the sum can no longer be 5), we can add the probabilities to get the probability of one event or the other.
P(sum of 5 OR at least one 5)=1/9+11/36=4/36+11/36=15/36=5/9
