2 or 3 I think is the answer for number 5
Answer:
4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The midpoint segment has length ...
... L = AB/2 + BC + CD/2 = 16 cm
The entire segment has length ...
... AD = AB + BC + CD = 28 cm
If we subtract AD from 2L, we have ...
... 2L - AD - 2L = 2(AB/2 +BC + CD/2) - (AB +BC +CD) = 2(16 cm) -28 cm = 4 cm
... AB +2BC + CD -AB -BC -CD = 4 cm . . . . remove parentheses
... BC = 4 cm . . . . simplify
If you want to increase something by 3%, you would ADD 100% to it, so:
3% + 100% = 103%
Then you divide it by 100 to turn it into a decimal, so:
103% / 100 = 1.03
So to increase by 3%, the multiplier would be 1.03
If you wanted to decrease by 3%, you would SUBTRACT 100% from 3%, so:
100% - 3% = 97%
And then you would divide 97% by 100 to turn it into a decimal (multiplier), so:
97% / 100 = 0.97
So to decrease by 3%, the multiplier would be 0.97
If P(A) times P(B) is equal to P(A n B), then that shows the events are independent. Otherwise, they are dependent. When I write "A n B", I mean "A intersect B". The intersect symbol looks similar to the lowercase letter n.
P(A)*P(B) = (3/4)*(2/5) = (3*2)/(4*5) = 6/20 = 3/10
Since that result is not the same as P(A n B) = 1/3, this means that the events are not independent. They are dependent events. The answer is choice D
