Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 primes. So the probability for the first draw is 4/9. Since the card is not replaced, the second probability is 3/8. 3/8 * 4/9 is 12/72, which simplifies into 1/6.

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 possible primes: 2, 3, 5, 7

First card has 4/9 probability of being a prime. Second card has 3/8 probability of being a prime(since 3 prime cards left and 8 total cards left because we do not replace the first card). 4/9 * 3/8 = 1/6.

Another way to do this is using combinatorics. C(9,2) = 36 ways to choose 2 distinct cards, C(4,2) = 6 ways to choose two of the "prime" cards. 6/36 = 1/6.

Given that x +y=180, p +q =180, and p=x show that y =q
makvit [3.9K]
Showin that x=p the. The only way that y=q is because the others are the same say x=179 the y has to =1 and then p=179 so q has to equal =1

How do I find x? I am not sure how to get it because of the lines
JulsSmile [24]
A triangle's angles will always equal up to 180. Since you already have to of the angles, you will add them up together. 30+20=50. Then, you take 180 and subtract it by the sum of the two previous angles. 180-50=130. Now you know the last angle is 130. You also know that the missing angle is also 130. The reason for that is because the two angles are the exact same if you look at it.

In the right triangle shown, A= 30° and AB = 8.
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

BC=4\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we know that

sin(30^o)=\frac{BC}{AB} ----> by SOH (opposite side divided by the hypotenuse)

we have

AB=8\ units\\\\sin(30^o)=\frac{1}{2}

solve for BC

BC=sin(30^o)(AB)

substitute the values

BC=(\frac{1}{2})(8)

BC=4\ units
