Answer:

  30.7 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between the two fires can be found using the Law of Cosines. For ΔABC in which sides 'a' and 'b' are given, along with angle C, the third side is ...

  c = √(a² +b² -2ab·cos(C))

The angle measured between the two fires is ...

  180° -(69° -35°) = 146°

and the distance is ...

  c = √(11² +21² -2(11)(21)cos(146°)) ≈ √945.015

  c ≈ 30.74

The straight-line distance between the two fires is about 30.7 km.

Answer:

-$2.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the expected profit for one spin of the roulette wheel with this bet

Based on the information given you bet $50 on 00 while the standard roulette has 38 possible outcomes which means that the probability or likelihood of getting 00 will be 1/38.

Therefore when we get an 00, we would get the amount of $1,750 with a probability of 1/38 and in a situation where were we get something other than 00 this means we would lose $50 with a probability of 37/38.

Now let find the Expected profit using this formula

Expected profit = sum(probability*value) -sum(probability*value)

Let plug in the formula

Expected profit =($1,750 * 1/38) - ($50 * 37/38)

Expected profit=($1,750*0.026315)-($50×0.973684)

Expected profit= 46.05 - 48.68

Expected profit = - $2.63

Therefore the expected profit for one spin of the roulette wheel with this bet will be -$2.63

Answer:

if angles shown are right angle then from corner to midpoint line if this is symettrical angles are 45 and 45. if area is asked of you need to

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of any right triangle, you simply multiply the lengths of the two sides that are perpendicular to each other, and then take half of that. if you could flip one of them and move it on top of the other, they would match exactly. The rectangle has an area of 2 × 4 = 8 square units.
