Total applications = 75
Apartments on north side of town = 4
Apartments on South side of town = 5

First  person has a 4/75 chance of getting a house in the north side
P(A) = 4/75

And second person has a 3/74 chance of getting a house in the north side
P(B) = 3/74

Probability that 2 qualified applicants will be selected for the north side of town =  P(A∩B) = P(A) x P(B) = (4 ÷ 75) x (3 ÷ 74) = 0.05333 x 0.04054 = 0.00216 

First  person has a 5/75 chance of getting a house in the south side 
P(A) = 5/75

And second person has a 4/74 chance of getting a house in the south side
P(B) = 4/74

Probability that 2 qualified applicants will be selected for the south side of town =  P(A∩B) = P(A) x P(B) = (5 ÷ 75) x (4 ÷ 74) = 0.06666 x 0.05405 = 0.00360

Which circle has a central angle that measures 40°?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the circle that has a central angle that measures 40°.

In all options, the center of circle is U. It means central angle must be on center, i.e., U.

In option A,the angle VXZ is at point X which is not the center. So, angle VXZ is not a central angle.

In option B,the angle VUZ is at point U which is the center. So, angle VUZ is a central angle with measure 40°.

In option C,the angle XZV is at point Z which is not the center. So, angle XZV is not a central angle.

In option D,the angle VXZ is at point X which is not the center. So, angle VXZ is not a central angle.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Jessie loves to go hiking on rustic trails through trees and along rivers.One day in 20 minutes of hiking, she hiked 1 mile. If
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Jessie hiked at a constant rate of 3 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Constant rate can also be called speed

The formula for constant rate /Speed = Distance (miles)/ time in hours

Distance = 1 mile

Time = 20 minutes

Converting to hours

60 minutes = 1 hour

20 minutes =

20/60

= 0.3333333333hour

Constant rate = 1mile/0.3333333333 hour

= 3.0000000003

= 3 miles/hour
