The Captain has probability \dfrac{1}{2} 2
1

start fraction, 1, divided by, 2, end fraction of hitting the pirate ship. The pirate only has one good eye, so he hits the Captain's ship with probability \dfrac{1}{5}
5
1

start fraction, 1, divided by, 5, end fraction.
If both fire their cannons at the same time, what is the probability that both the pirate and the Captain hit each other's ships?

a - base

b - exponent

so,

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180

the correct answer is c
