Answer:

9/40

Step-by-step explanation:

Captain Jessica shoots first.  This means her ship has not already been hit, which means she has a 2/5 chance of hitting the pirate ship.  This also means she has a 1-2/5 = 3/5 chance of missing the pirate ship.

Since Captain Jessica misses, dread pirate Ishaan has a 3/8 chance of hitting the captain's ship.  This means he has a

3/5(3/8) = 9/40 chance of the captain missing the pirate and the pirate hitting the captain.

How do you find the area of a triangle ?
katovenus [111]

Answer:

to find the Area of a Triangle, you have to multiply the base times the height of the triangle to find the Area.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example..

If the Base ( bottom part of the triangle) was 10 and the height ( the vertical line of the triangle) was 5, you would multiply them together to get 50. So 5o would be the area of the Triangle.

A bicycle manufacturing company makes a particular type of bike. Each child bike requires 4 hours to build and 4 hours to test.
asambeis [7]
Building time :
4c + 6a < = 120

testing time :
4c + 4a < = 100

20 child bikes and 6 adult bikes...c = 20 and a = 6
sub into both equations
4c + 6a < = 120
4(20) + 6(6) < = 120
80 + 36 < = 120
116 < = 120 (correct)

4c + 4a < = 100
4(20) + 4(6) < = 100
80 + 24 < = 100
104 < = 100 (incorrect)

ur answer : No, because the bike order does not meet the restrictions of 4c + 6a < = 120 and 4c + 4a < = 100
