Tangent = opposite/adjacent
tangent = 15 / 8
If opp = 15 and adj = 8 then
hypotenuse^2 = 15^2 + 8^2
hypotenuse^2 = 225 + 64
hypotenuse^2 = 289
hypotenuse = 17
secant = hypotenuse / adjacent
secant = 17 / 8
secant = 2.125
<span>The amount of dissolved oxygen in the Missouri River would decrease if large amounts of chemical waste were dumped into it. It would decrease because the chemical waste would feed on the microorganisms and reduce the amount of oxygen in the river.</span>
<h2><u>Solution (1)</u> :</h2>
Given, to find A we have to :
- square m
- Add y to m²
- Subtract 7 from m² + y
From the question, the following equation can be formed :
Therefore, the formula for finding A = m² + y - 7
<h2><u>Solution (2)</u> :</h2>
The value of A we can derive from the formula is :
Value of m = 3 (given)
Which means :
Thus, the value of A = 2+y
Therefore, the value of A = <u>2+y</u>
Since there are two events happening simultaneously (windy and no sun), we can apply the concept of conditional probability here.
P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)
where it means that given B is happening, the probability that A is happening as well is the ratio of the chance for A and B to happen simultaneously over the chance of B to happen.
For our case, this can be interpreted as
P(A|B): it is the probability that it is windy (A) GIVEN that there is no sun (B)
P(A∩B) : chance of wind and no sun
P(B) : chance that there is no sun tomorrow
The chance of P(A∩B) is already given as 20% or 0.20. Since there is 10% or 0.10 chance of sun, then chances of having no sun tomorrow is (1-0.10) = 0.90.
Thus, we have P(A|B) = 0.2/0.9 ≈ 0.22 or 22%.
So, answer is B: 22%<span>.</span>
