Answer:

44.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

you can find the probability by dividing the total number of people by the number of people who have run a red light:

385/857

simplify into a decimal:

0.449

convert into a percent to get your answer:

44.9%

Write the trigonometric expression sin(sin−1u−tan−1v) as an algebraic expression in u and v. Assume that the variables u and v r

igomit [66]

Answer:

[u – v√(1 – u²)]/√(1 + v²)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let sin^-1(u) = A, therefore sinA = u.

We know that sin(theta) = opposite/hypothenuse

Therefore, sinA = u/1 and u is the opposite side to angle A while 1 is the hypotenuse. Draw an acute triangle placing u opposite to angle A and 1 as the hypotenuse. By Pythagoras theorem the adjacent would be √(1 – u²).

By doing this, it means cosA = adjacent/hypotenuse = √(1 – u²)/1 = √(1 – u²)

Also, let tan^-1(v) = B, therefore tanB = v.

We know that tan(theta) = opposite/adjacent

Therefore, tanB = v/1 and v is the opposite side to angle B while 1 is the adjacent. Draw an acute triangle placing v opposite to angle B and 1 as the adjacent. By Pythagoras theorem the hypothenuse would be √(1 + v²).

Therefore, sinB = opposite/hypotenuse = v/√(1 + v²) and cosB = adjacent/hypotenuse = 1/√(1 + v²)

Now,

sin[sin^–1(u) – tan^–1(v)] =

sin(A – B) =

sinAcosB – sinBcosA =

u[1/√(1 + v²)] – [v/√(1 + v²)][√(1 – u²)] =

[u/√(1 + v²)] – [v√(1 – u²)/√1 + v²)] =

[u – v√(1 – u²)]/√(1 + v²).

50+ POINTS I NEED HELP

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

21 yard line

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok we start out on the 20 yard line, we need to add the yards together.

We add the 6 to the 20:

20+6=26

Then we subtract the 8 yards from our new 26:

26-8=18

Then we add the 18 by 3:

18+3=21

Therefore,

The Answer is 21 Yard Line.

Hope I could help, If you need some more assistance ask me!

Please help with this

slava [35]

Answer:

D) x= $\frac{-2+-2\sqrt{7} }{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula is : $\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

A in terms of this question=9

B in terms of the question is 12

C in terms of the question is -24.

This question is an example of a quadratic equation. To work this out you may first need a calculator. The first step is to substitute the values of a,b and c into the formula. So once substituted the formula of $\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$ becomes $\frac{(-12)+-\sqrt{(12)^2-4*(9)*(-24)} }{2(9)}$ . Although when written in a calculator there will not be a plus and minus button and so you would have to do this separately.
