If p and q are non-zero rational numbers, and s and t are irrational numbers, select all of the statements that are always false
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The false choices are A, C, and E

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make an example:

p=1

q=2

s=sqrt(3)

t=sqrt(6)

Since pq=1*2=2, the answer is rational and A is false.

Since pt=1*sqrt(6)=sqrt(6), the answer is irrational and B is true.

Since p/q=1/2=0.5, the answer is rational and C is false.

Since st=sqrt(3)*sqrt(6)=sqrt(18), the answer is irrational and D is true.

Since s/t=sqrt(3)/sqrt(6)=sqrt(1/2), the answer is irrational and E is false.

What is the probability that a point chosen at random in the given figure will be inside the smaller square?
Aliun [14]
I have to interpret that:

1) the smaller square has side length = 3 cm

2) the bigger square has side length = 5 cm

3) the smaller square is completely inside the bigger square.

4) the points cannot be outside the bigger square



Under those assumptions the probability that a point is inside the smaller square  is

P (inside the smaller square) = area of the smaller square / area of the bigger square

P (inside the smaller squere) = (3cm)^2 / (5cm)^2 =  9 / 25


Answer: 9 / 25

Answer:

$15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 10 cards and a total possible prize of 30 dollars, the probability for each one is 30/10=3 dollars. And since 5 out of the 10 are even, you can multiply the individual amount by 5 to get a total estimated payout of $15. Hope this helps!
