From the diagram associated with this question it can be seen that the first bounce was 1 units high, thus the second bounce is 1 / 2 = 0.5 units high and the third bounce is 0.5 / 2 = 0.25 = 1/4 units high.

Given that B represents the second bounce and C represents the first bounce, the <span>fractions in hundredths that should be written at points B is 0.50 while at point C is 0.25</span>

First I am going to assume that these are both right triangles based off of look and because it is much easier. Without it you have to use law of sines or law of cosines...
So to find x you must first find y which can be done simply by using the pythagorean theorem. This theorem is defined as the sum of the squared legs is equal to the sum of the hypotenuse or x^2 + y^2 = z^2

If we substitute in the known values 16^2 + y^2 = 20^2 and solve for y we get that y = sqrt(20^2 - 16^2), this then simplifies to y = 12

Finding x is much more annoying, the easiest way I can immediately see is to find the upper angles by doing sin(16/20) and then 90 - sin(16/20) since the complementary angle is the one you want. I don't have a calculator or a trig table with me right now but I will tell you that x will be equal to 12 ÷ the inverse cosine of the angle (90degrees - sin(16/20)).

I am pretty sure the answer is D though because we know for sure y = 12 and x has to be greater than y because the hypotenuse must be larger than both legs. It could be E but you won't know unless you do the math for x. So it is either D or E but I would be surprised if a Professor made you do all of the work just to say it doesn't work...

I see no reason for the aluminum foil to have lost any volume, matter, mass , etc.

If all pieces are retrieved for measuring. - &

If a clean cut was achieved- and the blade used to cut did not impede upon the proceedings by also being variable, then I reiterate that there should be no difference in volume, matter, mass, etc.

11. A basket contains the following pieces of fruit: 3 apples, 2 oranges, 2 bananas, 2 pears, and 5 peaches. Jameson picks a fru
ludmilkaskok [199]
There are 14 fruit to start with and 2 bananas

2/14

then there are 13 fruit and 2 pears

2/13

So the probability of the two events in a row without replacement is:

(2/14)(2/13)=4/182

2/91  ( about 2.2%)
