Answer:   \dfrac{7}{145} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ,The bag contains :

9 chocolate chip cookies, 5 peanut butter cookies, 9 sugar cookies and 7 oatmeal raisin cookies.

Total cookies = 9+5+9+7=30

Now , the number of ways to choose any two cookies ( one after another) :

^{30}C_2=\dfrac{30!}{2!(30-2)!}=\dfrac{30\times29\times28!}{2\times28!}=435

The number of way to choose two oatmeal raisins ( one after another) :

^{7}C_2=\dfrac{7!}{2!(7-2)!}=\dfrac{7\times6\times5!}{2\times5!}=21

Now , the probability that Skyler randomly selects an oatmeal raisin cookie from the bag, eats it, then randomly selects another oatmeal raisin cookie will be :

\dfrac{21}{435}=\dfrac{7}{145}

Hence, the required probability is \dfrac{7}{145} .

A suitcase measures 24 inches long and the dialogue is 30 inches long. How much material is needed to cover one side of the suit
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

432 in.^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The side of the suitcase is a rectangle. One length is 24 inches. The diagonal of the rectangle is 30 inches long. The diagonal is a hypotenuse of a right triangle. The length is a leg. We need to find the other leg.

We use the Pythagorean theorem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(24 in.)^2 + b^2 = (30 in.)^2

576 in.^2 + b^2 = 900 in.^2

b^2 = 324 in.^2

b = sqrt(324 in^2)

b = 18 in

area of rectangle = length * width

A = 24 in. * 18 in.

A = 432 in.^2
