Use common sense to determine whether the given event is impossible; possible, but very unlikely; or possible and likely. an accountant was struck by lightening three times in his lifetime. possible and likely possible, but very unlikely impossible

Option B is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

An accountant was struck by lightening three times in his lifetime. This event is Possible, but very unlikely.

We know that a probability near 0 means an unlikely event. Probability around 1/2 indicates an event that is neither unlikely nor likely. Similarly, probability near 1 indicates a likely event.

Here, in a lifetime the accountant was struck 3 times. If the average lifetime is 70 years, so probability becomes . This is close to zero, indicating that the event is very unlikely.

And people are struck by lightening so it is a possible event.

Combining both, we get option B as the final answer.

answer: 1 + 1 = 11

step-by-step explanation:

11.2

step-by-step explanation:

when doing tangent the tangent of the angle is equal to the opposite side from the angle over the adjacent side to the angle.

tan43 = x / 12

move 12 over by multiplying each side by 12

12tan43 = x

x = about 11.2
