Answer:  The required probability that Maria will wear blue dress at her party is 16.67%.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Maria has three red dresses, two white dresses and one blue dress.

We are to find the probability that Maria will wear a blue dress at her party.

Let S denotes the sample space of selecting a dress from the collection of Maria and A be the event that Maria wear blue dress at her party.

Then, we have

n(S)=3+2+1=6,\\\\n(A)=1.

Therefore, the probability of event A is given by

P(A)=\dfrac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{1}{6}\times100\%=16.67\%.

Thus, the required probability that Maria will wear blue dress at her party is 16.67%.

A satellite can move at 17,000 miles per hour. How many hours will it take to reach a star that is three light years away? Recal
babunello [35]
First convert the distance to miles 

<span>9.5 × 10^12 km x 0.62 miles/km </span>
<span>= (0.62 × 9.5) x 10^12 miles </span>
<span>= 5.9 × 10^12 miles </span>

<span> we want to triple that, because it is 3 light years (not just 1): </span>
<span>3 x 5.9 × 10^12 miles </span>
<span>≈ 18 × 10^12 miles </span>
<span>≈ 1.8 × 10^13 miles </span>

<span>Next divide by the speed to get the time (in hours). </span>
<span>t = 1.8 × 10^13 miles / 17000 miles/hour </span>

<span>convert the speed to scientific notation: </span>
<span>t = 1.8 × 10^13 / 1.7 x 10^4 </span>

<span>t = (1.8 / 1.7) × (10^13 / 10^4) <-- when dividing powers with the same base, subtract the exponents </span>
<span>t ≈ 1.1 × 10^9 </span>

<span>convert that back to standard notation. </span>

<span>Answer: </span>
<span>1,100,000,000 hours (P.S. That is about 120,000 years).
Hope this helps!!!</span>

Suppose a railroad rail is 6 kilometers and it expands on a hot day by 10 centimeters in length. Approximately how many meters w
Anvisha [2.4K]
<span>Given that the railroad rail is 6 kilometers before expansion.

When the railroad expands, it makes an isosceles triangle at the center of the rail.

The base of the triangle is 6 kilometers while each leg of the triangle is given by (6 + 10/100,000) / 2 = 6.0001 / 2 = 3.00005 kilometers.
[recall that 100,000 centimeters gives 1 kilometers, thus 10 centimetres gives 10/100,000 kilometers]

Taking one half of the isoceles triangle, we have a right triangle with one of the leg as 6 / 2 = 3 kilometers and the hypothenus = 3.00005 kilometers.

Thus, using the Pythagoras theorem, we find the other leg (height) of the right triangle as follows.

Let the other leg of the right triangle be h, then
3^{2} + h^{2} = 3.00005^{2}  \\  \\ \Rightarrow h^2=3.00005^{2}-3^2 \\  \\ =9.0003000025-9=0.0003000025 \\  \\ \Rightarrow h= \sqrt{0.0003000025} =0.01732058

Thus, the center of the rail will rise 0.01732058 kilometers above the ground.

But, there are 1,000 meters in 1 kilometers, therefore, </span><span><span>the center of the rail will rise 0.01732058 x 1,000 = 17.32 meters above the ground.</span></span>
