We have 5 Republican Candidates and 6 Democratic Candidates

We have a total 11 candidates to choose from

First pick of Democratic Candidates = 6/11
Second pick of Democratic Candidates = 5/10
Third pick of Democratic Candidates = 4/9
Fourth pick of Democratic Candidates = 3/8

The probability of four Democratic candidates in the committee is
\frac{6}{11}×\frac{5}{10}×\frac{4}{9}×\frac{3}{8} = \frac{360}{7920} = \frac{1}{22}

Answer:

  (3)  12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of leg XY. Then the length of YZ is x/2 and the area  of the right triangle is ...

  A = 1/2bh

  A = 1/2(x)(x/2) = x²/4

  36 = x²/4 . . . . . use the given value for area

  144 = x² . . . . . . multiply by 4

  √144 = 12 = x . . . . . take the square root

The length of leg XY is 12 cm.

Which of the following descriptions represents the transformation shown in the image​
Viktor [21]

Answer:  A. 270° rotation, 3 units left, and 2 units up

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

C = (1, 1)        D = (3, 3)          E = (2, -2)

270° rotation counterclockwise means (x, y) = (y, -x)

new C = (1, -1)        new D = (3, -3)         new E = (-2, -2)

3 units left means subtract 3 from the x-coordinate

newer C =( -2, -1)        newer D = (0, -3)      newer E = (-5, -2)

2 units up means add 2 to the y-coordinate

C' = (-2, 1)       D' = (0, -1)       E' = (-5, 0)

Since the first option worked, there is no need to check the other options.

Rectangle with a side length of 11" and a diagonal of 14" what is the perimeter
notka56 [123]

Answer:

10sqrt3+22

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, let us imagine it as a sort of rectangle split upon its diagonal.

Using that, we can Pythag it out,

11^2+b^2=14^2

121+b^2=196

b^2=75

b=sqrt75

b=5sqrt3

Ok, using this info, we find the perimeter,

5sqrt3+5sqrt3+11+11

10sqrt3+22

The answer is 10sqrt3+22

Brandon x-18


Michael 3x-18


9 (x-18)=3x-18


9x-9.18=3x-18

9x-3x=9.18-18

6x=8.18

x=8.3

x= 24
