Answer:

L=4\sqrt{15}\ m

or

L=15.49\ m

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem in the rectangular pool

d^2=L^2+W^2

where

d is the diagonal of the pool

L is the length of the pool

W is the wide of the pool

we have

d=16\ m\\W=4\ m

substitute the given values

16^2=L^2+4^2

solve for L

L^2=16^2-4^2\\L^2=240\\L=\sqrt{240}\ m

simplify

L=4\sqrt{15}\ m

or

L=15.49\ m

At Bayside High School, 55% of the student body are boys. Thirty-five percent of the boys are on honor roll, and 40% of girls ar
BARSIC [14]
If 55% of the student body are boys, then 45% are girls.

35% of boys are on the honor roll, so 35% of 55% are on the honor roll.

40% of girls are on the honor roll, so 40% of 45% are on the honor roll.

So now we need to find each of those numbers...

35% of 55% =
.35 * .55 = .1925  multiply by 100 to convert to percent

19.25% of boys (in the student body) are on honor roll


40% of 45% =
.40 * .45 = .18   multiply by 100 to convert to percentage

18% of girls (in the student body) are on honor roll

Add the two together to get the total percentage of student body that is on the honor roll...

19.25% + 18% = 37.25%

Round to the nearest percent

37%

If the number before the place you are rounding to is a 5 or more you round up but if it is a 4 or below it stays the same so the answer is 28,000,000

Suppose a jar contains 11 red marbles and
Alina [70]

Answer:

There are 32 marbles. 11 are red. So odds of a red on the first are 11/32.

Now there are 31 marbles left. 10 are red. So odds of a red on the second is 10/31.

Probability both are red, just multiply …. 11/32x 10/31 = 110/992 or 0.111.
