Answer:

46 are left handed

Step-by-step explanation:

divide 10 by 85 and you get 0.11764705882352941176470588235294 then multiply that by 391 and you get 46

What is csc (2π/3)? Explain.

masha68 [24]

we are given the expression csc (2 pi / 3 ) and is asked to evaluate the expression. According to the trigonometric identities, the inverse of cosecant (CSC) is sine (sin) function. hence using the calculator in radians mode, sin 2pi/3 is equal to 2/sqrt 3. Taking the reciprocal of the answer, the final answer is 2 sqrt3 over 3.

There are 10 pens in a box. There are x red pens in the box. All the other pens are blue. Jack takes at random two pens from the

The probability that one of each color is selected is $\frac{10x - x^2}{45}$

<h3>Probabilities</h3>

The probability of an event is the chances of the said event

The given parameters are:

Total = 10
Red = x
Blue = 10 - x

<h3>Calculating the required probability</h3>

The probability that one of each color is selected is calculated as follows:

$P = P(Blue) \times P(Red) + P(Red) \times P(Blue)$

So, we have:

$P = \frac{10 - x}{10} \times \frac{x}{9} + \frac{x}{10} \times \frac{10 - x}{9}$

This gives

$P = \frac{x(10 - x)}{90} +\frac{x(10 - x)}{90}$

Take LCM

$P = \frac{2x(10 - x)}{90}$

Simplify the above expression

$P = \frac{x(10 - x)}{45}$

Expand

$P = \frac{10x - x^2}{45}$

Hence, the probability that one of each color is selected is $P = \frac{10x - x^2}{45}$

Simplify the expression 4y - 1 - 3y + 2

victus00 [196]

Okay, so basically all you need to do is combine like terms!
in this case, 4y and -3y are like terms... and -1 and 2 are like terms
so, 4y - 3y is 1y or y
and -1 + 2 is 1

so your simplified answer is y + 1

I hope this helps!!

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y=5 through the point (-4,-6)

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

$x=-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The given equation y=5 is a horizontal line (is parallel to the x-axis)

The slope of the given line is equal to zero

A perpendicular line to the given line is a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis)

The equation of a vertical line is equal to the x-coordinate of the point that passes through it

The point that passes through it is (-4,-6)

therefore

The equation of the perpendicular line is

$x=-4$
