4.23
2.75

four segments measure 16, 19, 43 and 50 centimeters. what is the probability that a triangle can be formed if three of these seg
neonofarm [45]
OK, a triangle first of all needs to have a certain condition satisfied. The length of one side of a triangle can not equal the length of 2 sides combined. So in a triangle a + b = c, a + b can not be less than c (a + b <span>≮ c</span>). Therefore, there are only a few possibilities that will work here. Let's find them:

16, 19, 43; no

16, 19, 50; no

16, 43, 50; yes

19, 43, 50; yes 

Since only 2 out of 4 form triangles, there is a 50% chance you'll pick the right segments to form a triangle.

6,500 acres of a 41,000 acre forest burned in a fire. what percentage of forest was damaged?​
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

15.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Acres damaged (burned) = 6,500 acres

Acres in total forest = 41,000 acres

Hence the amount of damaged forest as a fraction of the total forest,

= \frac{6500}{41000} = \frac{13}{82}

expressed as percentage = \frac{13}{82} x 100% = 15.85%

An inspector checks 98 cell phones and finds that 2 of them are defective. A company has 850 of these phones. How many of the co
jekas [21]

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

As 2 phones are defective from a group of 98 that were checked, you can determine a percentage:

2/98= 2%

This indicates that 2% of the phones are likely to be defective and because of that you can find 2% of 850:

850*2%= 17

According to this, 17 phones are likely to be defective.
