The cost of 1kg of coal mined from the ore is $0.0397

Data;

  • 1 ton = $35.99
  • 1kg = ?

<h3>The Cost of 1kg of Coal</h3>

To find the cost of 1kg of coal, we can simply and equate 1 ton to its equivalent in ton and the solve.

1ton = 907kg\\

let's write this and equate it

1 ton = $35.99

907kg = $35.99

1kg = x

Let's cross multiply both sides and solve for x

907kg = \$35.99\\1kg = x\\x = \frac{1 * 35.99}{907} \\x = \$0.0397

The cost of 1kg of coal is $0.0397

In the picture below, ABCD is a rectangle. If the area of triangle ABE is 40, what is the area of the triangle?
MariettaO [177]

Area of the rectangle: 112

Step-by-step explanation:

Picture is missing: find it in attachment.

The area of a triangle is given by

A=\frac{1}{2}bh

where

b is the length of the base

h is the height

For triangle ABE, we know that

A = 40 (area)

h = 8 (height)

So we can find the length of the base AE:

AE=b=\frac{2A}{h}=\frac{2(40)}{8}=10

Now we observe that the base of the rectangle, AD, is the sum of AE and DE, therefore:

AD=AE+DE=10+4=14

We also know the height of the rectangle AB is 8, and that the area of a rectangle is

A=bh

where b is the base and h the height. Therefore, the area of this rectangle is

A=bh=(AD)(AB)=(14)(8)=112

A prize wheel is divided into 12 equally likely spaces labeled 1 to 12.
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Events E and F are independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

E = {multiple of 3}  = {3, 6, 9, 12}

P(E) = 4/12

F = {even number}  = {2, 4, 6, 8. 10, 12}

P(F) = 6/12

E and F = {even and multiple of 3} = {6, 12}

P(E∩F) = 2/12

In order for two events to be independent the following relationship must be true:

P(E)*P(F) = P(E\cap F)

Testing this property:

P(E)*P(F) = \frac{4}{12}*\frac{6}{12}=\frac{24}{144}=\frac{1}{6}    \\P(E\cap F) = \frac{2}{12}=\frac{1}{6} \\P(E)*P(F) = P(E\cap F)

The relationship holds true, thus events E and F are independent.
