Answer: The disk selected is one of those 6. Three are red, three are yellow. Therefore, there are 3 chances out of 6 that the disk will be yellow, which reduces to 1/2 or 0.50.

Step-by-step explanation: The short answer is that the numbers given determine the disk, not the fact that two disks are being chosen. There are 6 possible numbers chosen, and half of them will produce a yellow.

The longer answer is that these are not independent events, which would allow one to multiply the probability. The number and the disk are not independent; one determines the other. There is a probability of getting a yellow of 4/10 with the first choice, and then it is 3/9. But the choices are CONDITIONAL upon a certain number's being allowed

In ΔRST, r = 620 inches, s = 840 inches and t=230 inches. Find the area of ΔRST to the nearest square inch.
muminat

Answer:

24179 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔRST, r = 620 inches, s = 840 inches and t=230 inches. Find the area of ΔRST to the nearest square inch.

We use the formula

Heron's formula = √s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)

Where s = a + b + c/2

Solving for s

s = 620 + 840 + 230/2

s = 845

Solving for the area of the triangle

= √845 × (845 - 620) × (845 - 840) × (845 - 230)

= √584634375

= 24,179.213696893 square inches

Approximately = 24179 square inches
