  1. in the sophomore class at green high school, 95 students have their driver’s license and 105 students have a job. 78 students have both. there are 335 students in the entire class.

a) what is the probability that a student has their driver’s license or has a job? show your calculations.
b) what is the probability a student does not have their driver’s license?

Response
Problem 1a

Step1: Identify trigonometric ratio

In right triangle \(ABC\), \(\angle A = 90^\circ\), \(\angle C = 35^\circ\), adjacent side \(AC = 12\), opposite side \(AB = x\). Use tangent: \(\tan\theta=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}\)
\(\tan(35^\circ)=\frac{x}{12}\)

Step2: Solve for \(x\)

Multiply both sides by 12: \(x = 12\times\tan(35^\circ)\)
Calculate \(\tan(35^\circ)\approx0.7002\), so \(x\approx12\times0.7002 = 8.4024\) (approx 8.4)

Step1: Identify trigonometric ratio

In right triangle, \(\angle\) with side 31 is adjacent to \(x\)? Wait, no: the side 31 is one leg, hypotenuse 47? Wait, no, the triangle has right angle, one leg 31, hypotenuse 47? Wait, no, the side labeled \(x\) and 31 are legs? Wait, no, the hypotenuse is 47. Wait, no: right triangle, one leg 31, hypotenuse 47? No, wait, the angle: wait, the triangle has right angle, one leg 31, the other leg \(x\), hypotenuse 47? Wait, no, Pythagoras: \(x^2 + 31^2 = 47^2\)? Wait, no, maybe \(x\) is opposite to an angle, but the triangle has right angle, 31 is one leg, hypotenuse 47? Wait, no, let's check: \(x^2 + 31^2 = 47^2\) → \(x^2 = 47^2 - 31^2 = (47 - 31)(47 + 31)=16\times78 = 1248\) → \(x=\sqrt{1248}\approx35.33\). Wait, maybe I misread. Wait, the triangle: right angle, one leg 31, hypotenuse 47? No, maybe the 31 is adjacent, \(x\) is opposite, and hypotenuse 47? Wait, \(\sin\theta=\frac{x}{47}\), but no, the leg 31: \(\cos\theta=\frac{31}{47}\), so \(\theta=\cos^{-1}(\frac{31}{47})\), then \(x = 47\sin\theta\). Alternatively, Pythagoras: \(x=\sqrt{47^2 - 31^2}=\sqrt{2209 - 961}=\sqrt{1248}\approx35.33\)

Step1: Apply Pythagorean theorem

\(x = \sqrt{47^2 - 31^2}\)

Step2: Calculate

\(47^2 = 2209\), \(31^2 = 961\), \(2209 - 961 = 1248\), \(\sqrt{1248}=\sqrt{16\times78}=4\sqrt{78}\approx35.33\)

Step1: Find \(\theta\)

In right triangle, one angle \(44^\circ\), right angle, so \(\theta = 90^\circ - 44^\circ = 46^\circ\)

Step2: Find \(x\) (opposite to 98? Wait, 98 is one leg, angle \(44^\circ\): \(\tan(44^\circ)=\frac{x}{98}\)? Wait, no: the side 98 is opposite to \(\theta\)? Wait, the triangle has right angle, side 98 is one leg, angle \(44^\circ\) at the other acute angle. So: \(\tan(44^\circ)=\frac{x}{98}\)? Wait, no: \(\tan(44^\circ)=\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}\). If the angle is \(44^\circ\), then the side opposite is \(x\), adjacent is 98? Wait, no: the side labeled 98 is adjacent to \(\theta\), and opposite to \(44^\circ\). Wait, \(\theta = 90 - 44 = 46^\circ\). Then, for angle \(44^\circ\): \(\tan(44^\circ)=\frac{x}{98}\) → \(x = 98\tan(44^\circ)\). For \(y\): \(\cos(44^\circ)=\frac{98}{y}\) → \(y=\frac{98}{\cos(44^\circ)}\)

Step3: Calculate \(\theta\)

\(\theta = 90^\circ - 44^\circ = 46^\circ\)

Step4: Calculate \(x\)

\(\tan(44^\circ)\approx0.9657\), so \(x\approx98\times0.9657\approx94.64\)

Step5: Calculate \(y\)

\(\cos(44^\circ)\approx0.7193\), so \(y\approx\frac{98}{0.7193}\approx136.24\)

Answer:

\(x\approx 8.4\) (or more precise \(12\tan(35^\circ)\))
