The probability that the person will be able to keep a pack of fuzzy peaches will be 0.25.

<h3>How to calculate the probability?</h3>

a. Based on the information given, the probability that the person will be able to keep a pack of fuzzy peaches will be:

= 10/(10 + 7 + 3) × 10/(10 + 7 + 3)

= 10/20 × 10/20

= 1/4

= 0.25

The probability that the person will be able to keep a pack of fuzzy peaches will be 0.25.

b. The probability to be able to keep any of the candy will be:

= (10/20 × 10/20) + (7/20 × 7/20) + (3/20 × 3/20)

= 100/400 + 49/400 + 9/400

= 158/400

= 0.395

The probability to be able to keep any of the candy will be 0.395.

c. The probability that you will not be able to keep any of the candy will be:

= (10/20 × 10/20) + (7/20 × 13/20) + (3/20 × 17/20)

= 100/400 + 91/400 + 51/400

= 242/400

= 0.605

The probability that you will not be able to keep any of the candy will be 0.605.

What is the perimeter of the shape below if 1 square is equal to 1 square foot
Radda [10]
The base, b, of a two-dimensional figure can be any side. The height, h, is the measure of a perpendicular line segment from the base to the top of the figure. Area is the number of square units needed to cover a flat surface without gaps or overlaps. A square unit is a square that is 1 unit long and 1 unit wide. To find the area of a figure, count the number of square units inside the figure. im sure thats right . now

valkas [14]

Answer:

The triangles are congruent by Angle Side Angle congruency statement and the reason is below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

∠ VUW ≅ ∠ XYW

VW ≅ YW

To Prove:

Δ VUW ≅ Δ XYW

Proof:

In Δ VUW and Δ XYW

∠ VUW ≅ ∠ XYW      ……….{Given}

VW ≅ YW                 ............{Given}

∠ VWU ≅ ∠ XWY    …………..{Vertically Opposite Angles are equal}

Δ VUW ≅ Δ XYW   .….{ By Angle-Side-Angle congruence test}

......Proved

Can you form a right triangle with the three lengths given? Why or why not? 4mi, 5mi, 6mi
Vladimir [108]
A right triangle must satisfy this equation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2 

a= shortest length
b=medium length
c=the longest length

a triangle with sides 4,5,6 will satisfy not this equation because:
4^2 + 5^2 ≠ 6^2 
16+25 = 41

41 ≠ 36

so the answer is C.

Hope this helps.
