P(black socks): 24/42 or 12/21
P(black socks without replacing): 23/41. As a result, the probability of randomly picking 2 black socks, without replacement, from the basket is 12/21×23/41=276/861 or 32%. Hope it help!

To aid in sea navigation, Little Gull Island Lighthouse shines a light from a height of 91 feet above sea level with an unknown
algol13

Answer:

\approx 6^\circ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Little Gull Island Lighthouse shines a light from a height of 91 feet above the sea level.

The angle of depression is unknown.

Distance of the point at sea surface from the base of lighthouse is 865 ft.

This situation can be modeled or can be represented as the figure attached in  the answer area.

The situation can be represented by a right angled \triangle ABC in which we are given the base and the height of the triangle.

And we have to find the value of \angle BAD \ or \ \angle C (Because they are the internal vertically opposite angles).

Using tangent ratio:

tan\theta = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}

tanC = \dfrac{AC}{BC}\\\Rightarrow tanC = \dfrac{91}{865}\\\Rightarrow tanC = 0.105\\\Rightarrow \angle C \approx 6^\circ

Therefore, the angle of depression is: \approx 6^\circ

The local museum had 20000 visitors in 1990 . The number of visitors has decreased by 3% each year since 1990 . Enter a function
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

It is m(x) = 20,000(0.97)^x.

Step-by-step explanation:

After 1990, each year has (100-3) = 97% ( or 0.97) of visitors that it had the previous year.

So m(x) = 20,000(0.97)^x   (answer).

The system shown has the unique solution (2, y, z). Solve the system and select the values that complete the solution. y = 0 y =
madreJ [45]
So we are given a system:
3x-2y+3z=0\\
-3x - 5y - 5z= -21
Substitute x = 2 we get the system:
-2y+3z=-6\\
- 5y - 5z= -15
Multiply the first equation by -5 and the second by 2 we get the system:
10y-15z=30\\
- 10y - 10z= -30
Adding the two equations we get :
-25z=0\text{ then}z=0.
We find the value of y by using any of the other equations like this:
-2y=-6\\y=3.
Final solution:
z=0,y=3

A has the coordinates (–4, 3) and B has the coordinates (4, 4). If DO,1/2(x, y) is a dilation of △ABC, what is true about the im
loris [4]

Answer:

Coordinates of Vertices of triangle ABC are A (-4,3) , B(4,4) and C(1,1).

As, DO is Dilation of Δ ABC by Scale factor of \frac{1}{2}.

Vertices of A' B'C' are

A'=(\frac{-4}{2},\frac{3}{2})=(-2,\frac{3}{2}), B'=(\frac{4}{2},\frac{4}{2})=(2,2), C'=(\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2})

So, Image Δ A'B'C' will be smaller than the Pre image Δ ABC.

The two triangles will be congruent.

AO is Dilated by a factor of half , so A'O' will be half of AO.

So, correct Statements are

1. AB is parallel to A'B'.

2.DO,1/2(x, y) =  

The distance from A' to the origin is half the distance from A to the origin.

OA=\sqrt{(-4)^2+3^2}=\sqrt{25}=5\\\\ O'A'=\sqrt{2^2+(\frac{3}{2})^2}=\frac{5}{2}=2.5
