Answer:

The probability of a penny and then without replacement a dime = 7/376

Explanation:

Given:

A jar contains:

6 Pennies, 7 Dimes, 16 Nickels, and 19 Quarters

To find:

the probability when you reach into the jar and grab a penny and then without replacement a dime

Total coins = 6 + 7 + 16 + 19

Total coins = 48

Probability of picking a penny = number of pennies/total coins

Probability of picking a penny = 6/48

Probability of picking a dime after a penny without replacement:

Since we are not replacing the first pick, the total coins will reduce by 1

Total coin for 2nd pick = 48 - 1 = 47

Pr(dime after a penny without replacement) = number of dime/total coin

Pr(dime after a penny without replacement) = 7/47

The probability of a penny and then without replacement a dime = Probability of picking a penny ×

Pr(dime after a penny without replacement)

\begin{gathered} Pr(penny,\text{ then a dime without replacement\rparen= }\frac{6}{48}\times\frac{7}{47} \\  \\ Pr(penny,\text{ then a dime without replacement\rparen= }\frac{1}{8}\times\frac{7}{47} \\  \\ Pr(penny,\text{ then a dime without replacement\rparen= }\frac{7}{376\frac{}{}} \\  \\ Pr(penny,\text{ then a dime without replacement\rparen= 0.0186} \end{gathered}

A cube-shaped water tank having 6 ft side lengths is being filled with water. The bottom is solid metal but the sides of the tan
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

0.033 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g = 32.2 ft/s2 and h be the maximum height that water can be filled before the sides shatter.

Pressure is distributed from 0 to maximum at the bottom like the following equation:

P = \rho gh

So the force generated by water pressure on the side of the tank is

F = PA = \rho ghs/2

where s = 6ft is the side length of the tank. This force cannot be larger than 200lb

\rho ghs/2 \leq 200

62.4*32.2*h*6/2 \leq 200

h \leq 0.033 ft

Write a mixed number that is equivalent to 16/3.
mars1129 [50]
A mixed number is an integer--whole number--in front of a fraction. To calculate this, you have to divide the numerator by the denominator and put the remainder over the denominator. 

Since 3 goes into 16 wholly 5 <em />times with 1 left over, 16/3 = 5 1/3.

Hope this helps!

Proving triangles similar
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

You do 38/3x+3 and 19/x+7 and then cross mulitply and get 57x+57=38x+266. Then yoy subtract 57 from 266 and get 57x=38x+209. Now you have to subtract 38 from 57 and then answer will be 19. So now you have 19x=209. Finally you divide 209 by 19 and get x=11. Good luck!
