Answer:

d. 0.875

Step-by-step explanation:

Having at least 1 girl out of 3 children means that there can be 1, 2 or 3 girls out of the 3 children.

So having at lest 1 girl out of 3 children is the same as saying that all 3 children are not boys.

The probability that all 3 children are boys would be

chance that child 1 is a boy * chance that child 2 is a boy * chance that child 3 is a boy = 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.125

And the probability that NOT all 3 children are boys would be

100% - probability that all 3 children are boys = 1 - 0.125 = 0.875

How far from an airport can an airplane fly and return in 8 hours, if it's outgoing speed is 160 km per hour and it's returning
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
<span>speed = distance/time
total time is 8 hours

outgoing speed is 160 km per hour, 
so time = d/160

</span><span>returning speed is 240 km per hour,
so time = d/240

 d/160 + d/240 = 8

3d/480 + 2d/480 = 8
5d/480 = 8
5d =480 (8)
5d = 3840
d=3840/5
d=768

answer: so the distance is 768 km</span>

Which of the following statements is true
Tresset [83]
Hello There!

The first statement is incorrect as congruent angles have the same measure but it doesn't have to 45°. It can be any value.
The second one is also incorrect. Congruent angles have the same measure but don't always total to 180° (which is what supplementary means). It would only be true if they are congruent right angles.
The third one is also incorrect as they don't always total to 90° either (Which is what complementary means). 
The fourth one is correct, this is because congruent angles are simply angles with the same measure.

In short, you're answer is 4. Congruent angles always have the same measure. 


Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
