Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let's assume ;

12=a

15=c

?=b

so;

a2+b2=c2

(12)2+b2=(15)2

144+b2=225

b2=225-144

b2=81 (square root both sides)

You'll get

b=9

NB; 2 is used as squared

Express the recurring decimal 1.52 as an improper fraction

(152÷4)(100÷4) = 3825 when reduced to the simplest form. As the numerator is greater than the denominator, we have an IMPROPER fraction, so we can also express it as a MIXED NUMBER, thus 152100 is also equal to 11325 when expressed as a mixed number.

The price of the Xbox One after tax is $265

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

The price of a Xbox one is $250

The tax on Xbox one is 6%

Now, the tax of 6% on 250 is calculated as follows:-

$=\frac{6}{100} \times 250\\\\=\frac{250 \times 6}{100}=\frac{1500}{100}=15$

So, the tax on Xbox one is $15

The total price of box including tax can be calculated by adding price of box and tax on box

<em>Total price of Xbox after tax = actual price of the Xbox One + Tax on the Xbox One </em>

= $250 + $15

= $265

Hence, the price of the Xbox One after tax is $265

In basketball, Shaquille makes 40% of his free throw attempts. He goes to the free throw line to shoot one-and-one (if he makes

nirvana33 [79]

This question is a little bit tricky. Anyway, the best answer to the question would be 2 points. The expected value of the number of points he will score would be two points in <em>every successful </em>free throw attempt he makes. It just has a probability of .40 - which means that ,say, in 10 free throw shots, there's a tendency he will only make 4 of them.
