The slope of the trail is gotten as; 0.05

<h3>What is the method of finding the slope?</h3>

The slope is defined as the change in the vertical with respect to the horizontal.

The slope is gotten by dividing the difference in y-coordinates by the difference in x-coordinates. That is;

Slope = rise/run

Now, we are told that the vertical distance of 50 meters is over a horizontal distance of 1000 meters. Thus;

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = 50/1000

Slope of the trail = 0.05

Thus, the slope of the trail is gotten as; 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

2 of a white ball =2/30 =1/15;

This is the probability of picking a black ball.

Let the number of black ball be X

x/(x +20)= 1/15[ probability of picking black ball ]

15x = x + 20 ; by cross multiplication

14x=20; x = 20/ 14 =1.42 = 1 [ approximately]

But to satisfy the premise given above; we have to approximate the no of balls to 2

Catalina multiplied 842 and 3 and got 3,326. how can can she check to see if her answer is reasonable

denpristay [2]

By rounding 842 to 800, she can multiply 800 by 3 to get 2,400.

then, multiply 40 by 3, you get 120 and add the two together to get 2,520

this shows her answer is not necessary reasonable

mixer [17]

Answer:

$\frac {2} {3}$ is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac {8} {3}$ ÷ $\frac {4} {1}$ can be turned into $\frac {8} {3}$ · $\frac {1} {4}$ using the KCF method. now we solve:

8\4=2

$\frac {2} {3}$ is the answer

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Only j,q,k beat 10 and there are four each of them so there are 12 cards that will beat the ten. 4 cards have already been drawn so there are 52-4=48 cards left in the deck, so the probability of beating the 10s is

12/48

1/4

Which is 25%
