<h3>Answer:  8</h3>

Explanation:

Draw out a 10 squares.

Shade in 4 of them to represent 4/10 = 0.40 = 0.4

Then use another color to shade another 4 squares. You should have 4+4 = 8 squares shaded, out of 10 total, giving 8/10 = 0.80 = 0.8

This is one visual way to see how 0.4 x 2 = 0.8

In other words, 0.4 x 2 means we have two copies of 0.4 added together. You could write it as 0.4 x 2 = 0.4 + 0.4 = 0.8 if you wanted.

Which statement correctly names the congruent triangles and justifies the reason for congruence?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

  C. Triangle BAC is congruent to triangle FDE by AAS

Step-by-step explanation:

BAC names the vertices in the order longest-side, shortest-side. That same order is FDE in the other triangle, eliminating choiced B and D. The triangles are not right triangles, eliminating choice A.

The only viable answer choice is C.

No specific sides are shown as being congruent, but two angles are, so we could claim congruence by ASA or AAS. Answer choice C uses the latter.

A committee of 15 members is voting on a proposal. Each member casts a yea or nay vote. On a random voting basis, what is the pr
Igoryamba

Answer:

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they vote yes, or they vote no. The probability of a person voting yes or no is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

Random voting:

So 50% of voting yes, 50% no, so p = 0.5

15 members:

This means that n = 15

What is the probability that the final vote count is unanimous?

Either all vote no(P(X = 0)) or all vote yes(P(X = 15)). So

p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.00003

P(X = 15) = C_{15,15}.(0.5)^{15}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.00003

So

p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15) = 0.00003 + 0.00003 = 0.00006

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

What is the FDP of 0.3
exis [7]

Answer:

  0.3 = 3/10 = 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

The reading of the number as "three tenths" tells you how to write the fraction:

  0.3 = 3/10

You can also express the same value in hundredths. Of course /100 is just a long way to write %, so ...

  0.3 = 0.30 = 30/100 = 30%

0.3 = 3/10 = 30%

A quadrilateral has vertices at $(0,1)$, $(3,4)$, $(4,3)$ and $(3,0)$. Its perimeter can be expressed in the form $a\sqrt2+b\sqr
seraphim [82]

Answer:

a + b = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Quadrilateral;

Vertices of (0,1), (3,4) (4,3) and (3,0)

Perimeter = a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{10}

Required

a + b

Let the vertices be represented with A,B,C,D such as

A = (0,1); B = (3,4); C = (4,3) and D = (3,0)

To calculate the actual perimeter, we need to first calculate the distance between the points;

Such that:

AB represents distance between point A and B

BC represents distance between point B and C

CD represents distance between point C and D

DA represents distance between point D and A

Calculating AB

Here, we consider A = (0,1); B = (3,4);

Distance is calculated as;

Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}

(x_1,y_1) = A(0,1)

(x_2,y_2) = B(3,4)

Substitute these values in the formula above

Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}

AB = \sqrt{(0 - 3)^2 + (1 - 4)^2}

AB = \sqrt{( - 3)^2 + (-3)^2}

AB = \sqrt{9+ 9}

AB = \sqrt{18}

AB = \sqrt{9*2}

AB = \sqrt{9}*\sqrt{2}

AB = 3\sqrt{2}

Calculating BC

Here, we consider B = (3,4); C = (4,3)

Here,

(x_1,y_1) = B (3,4)

(x_2,y_2) = C(4,3)

Substitute these values in the formula above

Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}

BC = \sqrt{(3 - 4)^2 + (4 - 3)^2}

BC = \sqrt{(-1)^2 + (1)^2}

BC = \sqrt{1 + 1}

BC = \sqrt{2}

Calculating CD

Here, we consider C = (4,3); D = (3,0)

Here,

(x_1,y_1) = C(4,3)

(x_2,y_2) = D (3,0)

Substitute these values in the formula above

Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}

CD = \sqrt{(4 - 3)^2 + (3 - 0)^2}

CD = \sqrt{(1)^2 + (3)^2}

CD = \sqrt{1 + 9}

CD = \sqrt{10}

Lastly;

Calculating DA

Here, we consider C = (4,3); D = (3,0)

Here,

(x_1,y_1) = D (3,0)

(x_2,y_2) = A (0,1)

Substitute these values in the formula above

Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}

DA = \sqrt{(3 - 0)^2 + (0 - 1)^2}

DA = \sqrt{(3)^2 + (- 1)^2}

DA = \sqrt{9 +  1}

DA = \sqrt{10}

The addition of the values of distances AB, BC, CD and DA gives the perimeter of the quadrilateral

Perimeter = 3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{10} + \sqrt{10}

Perimeter = 4\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{10}

Recall that

Perimeter = a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{10}

This implies that

a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{10} = 4\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{10}

By comparison

a\sqrt{2} = 4\sqrt{2}

Divide both sides by \sqrt{2}

a = 4

By comparison

b\sqrt{10} = 2\sqrt{10}

Divide both sides by \sqrt{10}

b = 2

Hence,

a + b = 2 + 10

a + b = 12
