A basket of 40 pairs of pliers at a discount hardware store includes 5 pairs of 6-inch pliers. A second basket contains 20 hamme

rs, including 3 large hammers. What is the probability of drawing a 6-inch pair of pliers from the first basket without looking?

First, add all the numbers together, which is 68. Then divided 100 by 68, which gives you the number 1.47, and that's your answer.

Answer: Our required probability is \frac{1}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of pairs of pilers = 40

Number of pairs of 6-inch pilers = 5

So, Probability of drawing a 6-inch pair of pilers from the first basket without looking is given by

\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcome}}{\text{ Total number of outcomes}}\\\\=\frac{5}{40}\\\\=\frac{1}{8}

Because in another basket of hammers, there is no pilers.

Hence, our required probability is \frac{1}{8}

Solve the triangle. A = 46° a = 33 b = 26
frozen [14]
Using sin rule:
a/sin A =b/sin B=c/sin c
SIN A=sin 46=0.72
THEN:sin B =(0.72*26)/33=0.57
then B= 34° 
AS the sum of triangle angles=180 
then C=180-(46+34)=100°
then c =(a*sin C)/sin A
sin C=sin 100=0.98
=(33*0.98)*0.72=45

In the figure below, \overline{AD} AD start overline, A, D, end overline and \overline{BE} BE start overline, B, E, end overline

Answer:

<u>The measure of the arc CD = 64°</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

It is required to find the measure of the arc CD in degrees.

So, as shown at the graph

BE and AD are are diameters of circle P

And ∠APE is a right angle ⇒ ∠APE = 90°

So, BE⊥AD

And so, ∠BPE = 90° ⇒(1)

But it is given: ∠BPE = (33k-9)° ⇒(2)

From (1) and (2)

∴ 33k - 9 = 90

∴ 33k = 90 + 9 = 99

∴ k = 99/33 = 3

The measure of the arc CD = ∠CPD = 20k + 4

By substitution with k

<u>∴ The measure of the arc CD = 20*3 + 4 = 60 + 4 = 64°</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Competitor's price  = $800

<u>Price, 20% below of competitor's:</u>

  • $800 - 20% =
  • $800*(100-20)/100 =
  • $800*0.8 =

Each function below describes how something changes. Use the description to determine which function(s) describe exponential gro
cestrela7 [59]

Answer: E. The population decreased by 11% each year.

Step-by-step explanation: In A, the pollution increases at a constant rate, but in a linear way, in other words in each day, the pollution increases 10 grams; The same goes for C: ice "grows" a few milimeters each day; In D, as volume is calculated by the multiplication of π and its radius, the increase in the volume is still linear. In B, the proportionality is related to the power of the turbine not the growth or decay of it. In E, a population grows or decreases in a form of A=A₀(1±r)^t. In this case: A = A₀ (1-0.11)^t.

In conclusion, the function that better describes an exponential growth or decay is the decrease of a population.
