Answer: 1/8
Step-by-step explanation: The sample space are all of the different outcomes an event can lead to. The H and T combinations at the bottom are all of the different outcomes. I think the probability of getting 3 tails for the coins (or TTT) is 1/8. This is because there are 24 total outcomes (HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT). There is 3/24 TTTs (also, 1/8 if you count the groups/simplify). Therefore, it is 1/8. Hope this helps!
A: number of nonfiction books
b: number of fiction books
a+b=2000
a=3b
b=500
a=1500
Answer:
34
Step-by-step explanation:
17% of 100 is 17, so you can put that into a proportion, 17/100. We need to find what the numerator will be if the denominator is 200. Since you multiply 100 by 2 to get to 200, you have to do the same to the top, and 17x2 is 34.
Therefore, the correct answer is 34.

Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you know two sides and are trying to find the missing side, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem. So fashion the equation like this:
x^2 + 3^2 = sqrt10^2. After simplify, which leads to x^2 + 9 =10. Then have the variable to one side by subtracting 9 on both sides. This leads to x^2=1. Finally, square root both sides which leads to 1. Note that any root of 1 is 1. So your answer becomes x=1.
Hope this helps!
