Step-by-step explanation:

bananas to apples = 8 : 12

simplify by dividing both values by highest common factor of 4:

8 ÷ 4 : 12 ÷ 4 = 2 : 3

The attached triangle

Required

Complete the ratios

(a) sin B

$\sin(B)$ is calculated as:

$\sin(B) = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$

$\sin(B) = \frac{b}{c}$

(b) cos B

$\cos(B)$ is calculated as:

$\cos(B) = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}$

$\cos(B) = \frac{a}{c}$

$\tan(B)$ is calculated as:

$\tan(B) = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}$

$\tan(B) = \frac{b}{a}$

(d) tan A

$\tan(A)$ is calculated as:

$\tan(A)= \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}$

$\tan(A) = \frac{a}{b}$

(e) cos A

$\cos(A)$ is calculated as:

$\cos(A) = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}$

$\cos(A) = \frac{b}{c}$

(f) sin A

$\ain(B)$ is calculated as:

$\sin(B) = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}$

$\sin(B) = \frac{a}{c}$

Helen plays basketball. For free throws, she makes the shot 78% of the time. Helen must now attempt two free throws. C = the eve

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.6708 or 67.08%

Step-by-step explanation:

Helen can only make both free throws if she makes the first. The probability that she makes the first free throw is P(C) = 0.78, now given that she has already made the first one, the probability that she makes the second is P(D|C) = 0.86. Therefore, the probability of Helen making both free throws is:

$P(C+D) = P(C) *P(D|C) = 0.78*0.86\\P(C+D) = 0.6708$

There is a 0.6708 probability that Helen makes both free throws.

A particle is moving along the parabola x^2=4(y+6). As the particle passes through the point (8,10), the rate of change of its y

Fofino [41]

You'll need to use differentiation (specifically, implicit differentiation) here.

If x^2 = 4(y+6), differentiating both sides with respect to time t produces the following:

2x (dx/dt) = 4([dy/dt]) (note that (d/dt) 6 = 0)

We need to solve for (dx/dt). Substitute 8 for x (y does not appear in this latest equation, so we do nothing with y=10). Substitute the given 5 units/sec for dy/dt:

2(8)(dx/dt) = 4(5)(units/sec)

Solving for dx/dt, dx/dt = [20 units/sec]/16, or 5/4 units/sec, or 1.25 units/sec.
