This is a matter of probability and statistics. Probability is the study of calculating the chances or likelihood of an event occurring out of the total number of events. This likelihood is always presented as part of a whole. It could be in fractions or percentages.

For this problem, you have to designate the color of sock you end up wearing. I think your forgot to complete your question. In that case, let's just assume that you want to know the probability that you end up wearing two blue socks. You should not that in probability, when you are asked to find the probability of event A 'AND' event B happening, then you multiply their probabilities. In this case, the probability is

4/12 × 3/11

The first terms represents 4 blue socks out of 12 total socks. After that first random choice, your total socks would now be 11. Because you 'consumed' your original pool of choices, the next probability would change basing on the new pool of eliminated choices.

So, the total probability is 1/11 or 9.09%.

That makes no sense I think you’re missing some words but the answer might be $7.5 per hour bc 21-6 is 15 and that divided by 2 s 7.5

What is the measure of angle A, in degrees?​
juin [17]
96°.

Since sides AB and AC ane equal, that means that angle B is equal to angle C. The measurement of all the angles of a triangle always equals 180°, so if you add angles B and C, you should get 84° and then you should be able to find angle A. Subtract 84° from 180° and you should get 96°.

. Find the area of the regular dodecagon inscribed in a circle if one vertex is at (3, 0).
devlian [24]

Answer:

Area of the regular dodecagon inscribed in a circle will be 27 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular dodecagon is the structure has twelve sides and 12 isosceles triangles inscribed in a circle as shown in the figure attached.

Since angle formed at the center by a polygon = \frac{360}{n}

Therefore, angle at the center of a dodecagon = \frac{360}{12} = 30°

Since one of it's vertex is (3, 0) therefore, one side of the triangle formed or radius of the circle = 3 units

Now area of a small triangle = \frac{1}{2}.(a).(b).sin\theta

where a and b are the sides of the triangle and θ is the angle between them.

Now area of the small triangle = \frac{1}{2}.(3).(3).sin30

= \frac{9}{4}

Area of dodecagon = 12×area of the small triangle

= 12×\frac{9}{4}

= 27 unit²

Therefore, area of the regular octagon is 27 square unit.
