An amusement park reports that the probability of a visitor riding its largest roller coaster is 30 percent, the probability of

a
visitor riding its smallest roller coaster is 20 percent, and the probability of a visitor riding both roller coasters is 15 percent.
Which equation can be used to calculate the probability of a visitor riding the largest or the smallest roller coaster?
P(largest or smallest) = 0.30 - 0.20
P(largest or smallest) = 0.30 + 0.15-0.20
P(largest or smallest) = 0.30 +0.20 -0.15
P(largest or smallest) = 0.30 + 0.20

Response:

P(largest or smallest) = 0.30 + 0.20 - 0.15

Detailed explanation

You add the probabilities of choosing the largest and smallest without double counting the chance of selecting both.

Find the value of y if EF = EG.​
AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

55°

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem does not have a suitable diagram. Please check the attachment for the diagram.

Observing the diagram, it is evident that the triangle is isosceles, as it has two sides that are congruent (i.e., the same length). Since these sides are identical, the base angles are consequently also equal.

From the diagram, <EFG = <EGF

Since  <EFG  = 55°, it follows that  <EGF = y = 55°

Thus, the value of y is established as 55°

A hot air balloon descends to the ground. The function a(t) = 210 – 15t can be used to describe the altitude of the balloon as i
tester [12383]

a(t) = 210 - 5t

(1) What does t represent?

Since t is given in minutes, it stands for time.

Interpreting t as the balloon’s altitude is incorrect since a(t) represents altitude.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time elapsed since the balloon starts descending

This is the correct interpretation.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time for the balloon to reach ground level is incorrect because that would be a fixed moment, not a variable t.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(2) What does a(t) represent?

The balloon’s altitude

This is the correct answer.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time since descent began is incorrect because that is represented by t.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time to reach the ground is inaccurate since a(t) is altitude, not time.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(3) What does a(5.5) signify?

It does not represent the time to reach 5.5 feet altitude.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The altitude of the balloon after 5.5 minutes

This is the correct interpretation since a(5.5) is altitude when t = 5.5 minutes.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is not the time needed to reach the ground.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.5 minutes alone is not correct because a(t) denotes altitude, not time.

a(5.5) refers to altitude at t = 5.5 minutes.

In △ABC , m∠A=53°,m∠B=17°, and a=27. Find the perimeter of the triangle.
lawyer [12517]
Utilizing the Law of Sines (sinA/a=sinB/b=sinC/c) and recognizing that the angles in a triangle add up to 180°.

The angle C calculates to 180-53-17=110°

Thus, we have 27/sin53=b/sin17=c/sin110

This leads to b=27sin17/sin53, c=27sin110/sin53

The perimeter is defined as a+b+c, so

p=27+27sin17/sin53+27sin110/sin53 units

p≈68.65 units (rounded to the nearest hundredth of a unit)
