A flower bed contains 52 roses and 48 tulips. Two flowers have wilted, what is the probability that the flower is a tulip.

1 answer:

5 0

First, I add 52 to 48 to get the total amount of flowers. 52 + 48 = 100. Out of those 100, there are 48 tulips. If one flower wilted, the probability of it being a tulip would be 48/100, or 0.48. If a second flower wilted (with only 99 flowers left, and only 47 tulips left), the probability of it being a tulip is 47/99 or 0.474747... To get the probability of both of those being tulips, multiply the two together. 48/100 * 47/99 = 2256/9900 (then, simplify to 376/1650)

I hope this helps! Can I have Brainliest? :)

The shorter leg of a right triangle is 6m shorter than the longer leg. the hypotenuse is 6m longer than the longer leg. find the

Gennadij [26K]

Short leg = x-6m
Longer leg =x
Hypotenuse = x+6m

x² + (x-6)² =(x+6)²
x² + x²-12x+36 = x²+12x+36
2x²-12x+36= x² +12x+36
2x²-12x+36-36= x² +12x+36-36
2x² - 12x-12x = x²+12x-12x
2x² -24x-x² = x²-x²
x² -24x = 0
x(x-24)=0
x = 24

Short leg = 24-6m = 18
Longer leg =24
Hypotenuse = 24+6m=30

Check
a² + b² = c²
18² +24² =30²
324 +576 = 900
900=900

When completely factored x²-x-12 is equivalent to which of the following

QveST [7]

Answer:

$→{x}^{2} - x - 12 \\ = {x}^{2} - 4x + 3x - 12 \\ = x(x - 4) + 3(x - 4) \\ = \boxed{ (x - 4)(x + 3)}✓$

D. (x - 4)(x + 3) is the right answer.

Need help with 9 and 12(theirs a picture)

Doss [256]

Number 6 is incorrect. Remember when you see -(-1) that is addition because you are subtracting a negative from a negative so you take the negative sign away and you have a positive. The correct answer to 6 is -75. For number 9 the first thing that you are gonna do is distribute that negative sign to the -12 in parentheses. This will make it a positive 12 which leaves you with

-8+12-31=-27

Next for number 12 you will distribute the - sign onto the -9 in parentheses and the -16 in parentheses. This will leave you with -16+9+16=9

Hope that this helped!

delilah dose 184 jumping jacks in 4 minutes she dose her jumping jacks at a constant rate how many jumping jacks can delilah do

kondaur [170]

Answer: 46 jumping jacks per minute

Step-by-step explanation: Divide the total number of jumping jacks (184) by the time (4 minutes). Since she is going at a constant rate, this would be equal to 46 jumping jacks per minute. On a coordinate plane, this would be a linear function.
