15 picks are oranges

Answer:

2 ORANGE = 5 GREEN

GREEN = 2/5 ORANGE = 0.4 ORANGE

---

ORANGE + GREEN = 21

ORANGE + 0.4 ORANGE = 21

1.4 ORANGE = 21

ORANGE = 15

6 picks are orange Because if you have 3 sets of green ( 15 picks) and 2 for each set (2x3 =6) you would have 6 of the 21 that are orange . 15 +6 =21

Let's call the distance from the beach to the playground x.
Let's call the distance from the stand to the parking lot z.
Let's call the base of the biggest triangle in the picture (from the parking lot to the left) y.

Recall the pythagorean theorem: the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

There are three right triangles we can work with.

Triangle with sides 48, x and z. Here z is the hypotenuse so we get the equation x^{2} + 48^{2} = z^{2}

Triangle with sides 27, x and y. Here y is the hypotenuse so we get 27^{2} + x^{2} = y^{2}

Triangle with sides z, y and (48+27). Here (48+27) is the hypotenuse so we get y^{2} + z^{2} = (27+48)^{2}. That is, y^{2} + z^{2} = 5625

We have 3 equations and 3 unknowns (x, y and z). So let's take the last equation: y^{2} + z^{2} = 5625 and replace z^{2} and y^{2} using expressions that contain an expression in terms of x from the first two equations we came up with.

That gives us: 48^{2} + x^{2} + x^{2} + 27^{2} =5625 which we solve for x as follows:

2 x^{2} + 3033 =5625
2x^{2}  =2592
 x^{2} =1296
x=36

Now that we know x we can substitute 36 for x into the equation 48^{2} + x^{2} = z^{2} and solve for z as follows:
48^{2} + 36^{2} = z^{2} 
2304+1296=z^{2} 
3600=z^{2} 
z=60

This means that the distance from the beach to the parking lot is 36 m and the distance from the stand to the parking lot is 60 m.

NARA [144]

Answer:

\dfrac{1}{3,357,900}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are

C^{42}_4=\dfrac{42!}{4!(42-4)!}=\dfrac{42!}{4!\cdot 38!}=\dfrac{38!\cdot 39\cdot 40\cdot 41\cdot 42}{2\cdot 3\cdot 4\cdot 38!}=39\cdot 10\cdot 41\cdot 7=111,930

different ways to select the  four numbers between 1 and 42. Only one of this ways is correct (successful to win).

There are 30 different ways select the single number between 1 and 30. Only one of them is correct.

The  probability of winning the jackpot is

\dfrac{1}{111,930}\cdot \dfrac{1}{30}=\dfrac{1}{3,357,900}
