sweet [91]3 years ago
8 0
Ex: l -3 l = 3.

the two vertical lines on either side stand for absolute value, or the distance to 0 from the given number.
THE ANSWER WILL ALWAYS BE POSITIVE (except...)

however, if there is a negative sign on the OUTSIDE of the bars, the answer will be NEGATIVE.

ex: - l -4 l = -4
ex: l -4 l = 4

Celine has a bottle that contains 20% of milk and the rest water. The bottle has 1 liter of water. Part A: Write an equation in
Alexxx [7]
Percentage of milk PM
Liters of milk LM
Liters of water W
Total number of liters TL
W/100*PM = LM
W+LM =TL

Proof
1 liter / 100 = 10 milliliters
10 ml * 20 = 200 milliliters
200 ml + 1000 ml = 1200 ml
1.2 liters is the total amount of liters.

Is 11,13,17 a right triangle
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to check

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

11^2+13^2 = 17^2

121+169 =289

410 does not equal 289

This is not a right triangle

Suppose you have 6 pairs of socks in your sock drawer. It is still dark out in the morning when you get dressed, so you just pul
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

8/33 = 0.242

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 socks to begin with and one is taken;

The second is picked from the remaining 11 and will either match the first or not;

The probability of matching is 1/11 and 10/11 for not matching;

If the sock matches, no further sock is taken;

If the socks don't match, a 3rd sock is taken;

The 3rd sock is taken from the remaining 10, 1 of which will match with the first sock and another which will match the second;

Therefore, the probability of taking a matching sock on the third pick will by 2/10 or 1/5 and the probability it will not match either of the first two is 8/10 or 4/5;

Once again, if the sock matches either of those previously taken, no further sock is taken;

If the socks don't match, a 4th sock is taken;

Now, there are 9 socks remaining in the drawer;

Picking is repeated;

The process is logical;

The attached picture shows a tree diagram representing this information in an easily digestible way and makes it easy to work out the desired probability;

With tree, diagrams, you just multiply across until you get to your desired outcome;

In this case, we are finding the probability of picking 5 socks exactly;

Each process splitting represents the picking of a sock;

The probability will be:

10/11 × 8/10 × 6/9 × 4/8 = 8/33 = 0.242...
