Yes, it is better to switch your choice.

At first, you had a 1/3 chance of wining a car.

Then the professor eliminated an option.
Now you are left with either a goat or a car.

Now instead of having a 1/3 chance, you have a 1/2 chance of selecting the car.

This is famous for the Monty Hall Problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhlc7peGlGg

1/12 because first u find a common denominator of 12 then you get 9/12 + (-8/12) and then since one is negative and one is positive you have to subtract and you get positive 1/12

Figure I and Figure II are similar figures,

ELEN [110]

The ratio of corresponding sides is same for all the sides for similar polygon. the correct proportion is,

$\frac{ST}{EF}=\frac{WR}{CD}$

Thus the option H is the correct option.

To find the correct proportion we need to know about the properties of slimier polygon.

<h3>What are the properties of similar polygon?</h3>

Two polygons are said to be similar or congruent pentagon-

The corresponding angle of two pentagons are congruent.

The ratio of corresponding sides is same for all the sides.

The figure given in the problem of similar two polygons with six sides.

Rearrange the second figure as shown in figure.

As for the similar polygons, the ratio of corresponding sides is same for all the sides.

Thus the sides shown in the two rearranged figure must be same. Therefore,

$\frac{ST}{EF}=\frac{WR}{CD}$

Hence the correct proportion is,

$\frac{ST}{EF}=\frac{WR}{CD}$

Thus the option H is the correct option.

What is the solution of the system of equations 2x-5y=11 and -2x+3y=-9

Rainbow [258]

Equation 1:
x = (5y+11)/2
Substitute equation 1 to 2:
-2((5y+11)/2)+ 3y=-9
-2/2 = -1 thus -1(5y+11)

Continue...
-(5y+11)+3y=-9
-5y-11+3y =-9
(-5+3)y= 11-9
-2y = 2
y=-1

Substitute y into equation 1:
x=(5*-1+11)/2
x = 6/2=3

So y=-1 and x =3

Hurrrryyyyy plllzzz. Determine the equation of the line that passes through the given points

pashok25 [27]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

y = 2

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

To determine the equation of the line that passes through (10,2) and (-3,2), we need to determine the slope of the line. Then substitute the slope and any given point in point slope form to obtain the equation of the line.

<h3>Finding the Slope of the line:</h3>

$\implies \text{Slope} = \dfrac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}} = \dfrac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$
