Trigonometry question

The answer would be 6.8 I believe.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: You would have to find which side is the opposite , hypotenuse and adjacent to the degree. 8 is adjacent and x is the hypotenuse. Then you can use a strategy I like which is called SOH CAH TOA to find if you need to use sin, cosine, or tangent. It tells you in the acronym too how to set up the equation.

Step 2: In this case we need cosine since it is adjacent over hypotenuse (C in the acronym is for cosine A is for adjacent and H is for hypotenuse) so the equation would be Cos32= 8/x

Step 3: Then solve the equation, so you would do

8cos32=x

Put that into the calculator (I'm using a TI-84) and make sure it is in degree mode and you would get 6.78 but round that up to 6.8.

I hope this helps and that I did it right!!

answer:

step-by-step explanation:

here, the total dishes = 10

dishes having meat = 3 ( chicken, meatloaf and hamburger )

thus, the probability of having meat on the chosen dishes = number of dishes having meat / total dishes

=

therefore, the probability of not having meat = 1- the probability of having meat on the chosen dishes

=

=

=

⇒ option b is correct.
