First, you have to set a system of equations to determine the number of fiction and of nonfiction books.Call f the number of fiction books and n the number of nonfiction books. Then 400 = f + n. And f = n + 40 => n = f - 40 => 400 = f + f - 40 => 400 - 40 = 2f => f = 360 / 2 = 180. Now to find the probability of picking two fiction books, take into account the the Audrey will pick from 180 fiction books out of 400, and Ryan will pick from 179 fiction books out of 399, so the probability will be<span> (180/ 400) * (179/399) = 0.20 (rounded to two decimals). Answer: 0.20</span>

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so first you need to know how to calculate the volume of a cylinder

I will put the formula here:  V=πr2h

Since pi is equal to 3.14 as said in the problem we can simply divide 282.6 by pi, the radius and 2

That is equal to 282.6/3.14*3*2

A little calculation shows that, the answer is 15

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

C. 73 if I have read the given angle measurements correctly.

The angle measurements I see are:

219^\circ

(x-50)^\circ

(x+45)^\circ.

Step-by-step explanation:

Those angles together form a full rotation. A full rotation is equal to 360 degrees.

So we have the following equation to solve:

219+(x-50)+(x+45)=360

Combine like terms:

(x+x)+(219-50+45)=360

Simplify:

2x+(219-5)=360

2x+214=360

Divide both sides be 2:

x+107=180

Subtract 107 on both sides:

x=180-107

x=73

Choose the correct conic section to fit the equation.
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Option A) Circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

(x - 3)^2 + (y - 12)^2 = 25

A general equation of the circle is of the form:

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

where (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius of circle.

Comparing the two equations, we get,

(h,k) = (3,12)\\r = \sqrt{25} = 5

Thus, the given equation is equation of a circle centered at (3,12) and of radius 5 units.
