Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

There are totally 5 disks. On the first pick, there are 3 red discs. So

P(red disc on first pick ) = 3/5

Assuming that a red disc has been picked the first time, there will be 2 red discs and 2 blue discs so

(P red disc on second pick given red disc on first pick) = 2/4

P(red disc on both picks) = 3/5 x 2/4 = 3/10

if he continues his pattern he will have done 41 sit-ups on Friday

The key term here is inverse variation - that is, two or more variables must multiply to a certain product.
So, let's multiply 12 and 8. We get 96.
The correct pair must contain factors of 96.
16 and 6 are factors of 96, so the answer is (D).

Which set of side lengths form a right triangle?
astraxan [27]
Since we don't want to use the Pythagorean Theorem on all of these, first we look for some Pythagorean Triples. Its very helpful to know some of the common ones, so here's a list:

3, 4, 5
5, 12, 13
7, 24, 25
8, 15, 17

So we either look for these or a multiple of these numbers.

The last one is the only one that fits because 15, 20, 25 is a multiple of the triple 3, 4, 5 by multiplying all of them by 5. 

Thus, 15, 20, 25 forms a right triangle.
