Answer with explanation:

Two lines are said to be parallel ,if you take infinite number of points on any of the line and draw Perpendicular to another line , the length of Perpendiculars will be same.

Now coming to Options

A:--When you look at the bridge which extends over a river ,it is not exactly parallel ,the two opposite sides that is Line segments ,of the bridge are not exactly parallel.You may call it Skew lines.

B:--Similarly, a four way stop at an intersection , are not exactly Parallel.

C:--The straight Highway ,is not entirely Parallel at each and every part of the two lines joining on the Highway.So, you can't say that northbound and southbound on a straight highway are parallel everywhere.

D:--The Lines formed on the windowpane are smaller segments.These Segments are Parallel.

⇒Option D , is most Appropriate ,that is the best example of parallel lines in the real world.

Answer:

Real life example of parallel lines are railroad tracks and rows in a garden. Also the lines on a basketball court are parallel so basically C if im positive

Step-by-step explanation:

Some examples include the structural frames of buildings, railroad tracks, windows (opposite sides), sailboats, steps, and paper.

parallel bars in men's gymnastics

Also anything that is shaped as a rhombus, square or a rectangle. ( added by a.m.b.)

The YMCA lap pool is a right rectangular prism 36.8\, \text{m}36.8m36, point, 8, start text, m, end text long by 20 \,\text{m}20

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Volume is a three-dimensional scalar quantity. The depth of the YMCA lap pool is 2 meters.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

A volume is a scalar number that expresses the amount of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface.

Given that the following details about the YMCA lap pool:

The volume of the pool = 1472m³
The length of the pool = 36.8m
The width of the pool = 20 m

Since the pool is in the space of a right rectangular prism, therefore, the volume of the prism will be the product of length, width and depth. Therefore, the volume of the pool can be written as,

The volume of the pool = Length × width × depth

1472m³ = 36.8m × 20 m × depth of the pool

Depth of the pool = (1472m³ ) / (36.8m × 20m)

= 2 meter

Hence, the depth of the YMCA lap pool is 2 meters.

Complete Question

Question: In the bronze medal game of the 2014 FIBA Asia Cup... In the bronze medal game of the 2014 FIBA Asia Cup, and with his team down by two points, Philippines guard Paul Dalistan was fouled while attempting a three-pointer at the buzzer. He missed the shot and headed to the line for three foul shots.

1. Watch the video of Dalistan preparing to take his first shot. Before he shoots, what is the probability that Philippines will win the game? Lose the game? Send it into overtime? Dalistan’s free throw percentage is 84.6%

Answer:

The probability that Philippines will win the game is $P(A) = 0.6055$

The probability that Philippines will lose the game is $P(B) = 0.00365$

The probability that the game will be sent to overtime is $P(C) = 0.06$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The probability of Paul Dalistan making a shot is p = 0.846

The probability of Paul Dalistan not making the shot is $q = 1- p = 1- 0.846=0.154$

Paul Dalistan team was down by two points

This mean that for Paul Dalistan's team to win the game he must make the 3 free throws

So the probability that Philippines will win the game is mathematically represented as

$P(A) = p^3$

=> $P(A) = 0.846^3$

=> $P(A) = 0.6055$

Gnerally for Paul Dalistan's team to loss the game it means that Paul Dalistan did not make any of the free shot

Hence the probability that Philippines will loss the game is

$P(B) = q^3$

=> $P(B) = (0.154 )^3$

=> $P(B) = 0.00365$

Generally for the game to be sent to overtime then the game must be tied and for the game to be tied, Paul Dalistan have to make 2 out of the three shots

Hence the probability that game will go to overtime is

$P(C) = 3 * 0.846 * 0.154 * 0.154$

$P(C) = 0.06$

What is the probability of picking a blue coin out of a bag that contains 5 blue and 10 red coins

Neko [114]

the probability is 5/15 or 1/3.

You add up all the coins (5+10=15) and since there’s 5 blue coins in the bag, you put 5 over 15. You simplify that to 1/3.

hope this helped !!
