Assume that each material in each category has an equal chance of being selected.

Categories:
(a) Type of wood used to make the cabinet: birch, maple, cherry.
     Each type of wood has a probability of 1/3 to be selected.
(b) Type of finish: transparent, semi-transparent.
    Each type of finish has a probability of 1/2 to be selected.
(c) Knob: bronze, steel, wood.
     Each material has 1/3 probability to be selected.

Each event (selecting material for the cabinet, for the finish, and for the knob) is an independent event.

Therefore
Probablity(birch wood AND bronze knob) = (1/3)*(1/3) = 1/9
Probability(wood knob) = 1/3
Probability(transparent stain) = 1/2
Probability(cheryy wood AND semi-transparent stain) = (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6

Find the slope of the line that passes through (4, 6) and (1, 10).
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

given us,

(x1y1) = (4,6)

(x2y2)= (1,10)

here

slope= (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

= (10-6)/ (1-4)

= 4/ (-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

4/ (-3)

Nesterboy [21]
175 students walk to school. 7+5=12 and 420 divided by 12 is 35. I checked how I did it was correct because of 5*35+7*35=420. Then I found the product of 5*35 which is 175.

If cos Θ = negative 4 over 7, what are the values of sin Θ and tan Θ?
FinnZ [79.3K]
Given cos theta is equal to - 4/ 7 then we can conclude that theta is in the second and third quadrants. In this case, the other leg is equal to square root of (7^2 - 4^2 ) equal to square root of 33. In this case, sin theta can be equal to +- square root of 33 / 7 and tan theta is equal to +-square root of 33 / 4.

Please I really need help I will mark you as brainliest!
inna [77]

Answer:

∠ XYZ ≈ 72.9°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tanXYZ = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{XZ}{XY} = \frac{13}{4} , thus

XYZ = tan^{-1} (\frac{13}{4} ) ≈ 72.9°  to 1 dec. place )
