If you would illustrate the problem, you will be able to
formulate a triangle with the measurement of the hypotenuse (distance between
the two shops) to be missing. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, the formula to
compute for the hypotenuse is:
c = √a^2 + b^2
c = √(20)^2 + (13.5)^2
c = √400 + 182.25
c = √582.25
c = 24.13 km
Therefore, the distance between the two shops
is approximately 24.13 km.
Answer:
The Pythagorean theorem states that a2 + b2 = c2 in a right triangle where c is the longest side. You can use this equation to figure out the length of one side if you have the lengths of the other two.
Unless you just want to give money to the ice cream truck, for 0 items, you will pay 0.
Since the price of each item is $0.77, for one item you will pay $0.77. (Is that a surprise?)
Then for two items, you will pay $0.77 for each one, or $0.77 + 0.77 = $1.54. You can also compute this by making use of the fact that multiplication is a shortcut for repeated addition. The price can be found by $0.77×2 = $1.54 = f(2).
Similarly, for 3 items, you can add $0.77 three times: $0.77 + 0.77 + 0.77 = f(3), or you can use multiplication: $0.77×3 = $2.31 = f(3).
a) Our table looks like
(x, f(x))
(0, 0)
(1, 0.77)
(2, 1.54)
(3, 2.31)
b) By now, I'm sure you have realized that to find the price of x items, you multiply 0.77 by x.
f(x) = 0.77x
Answer:
2%
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case each one is an independent event, therefore, the multiplication of each one would be the final probability
We have 5 Red Marbles, 4 Green Marbles, and 3 Blue Marbles, that is, there are 5 + 4 + 3 12 Marbles in total.
Now if I draw a red one, the probability would be: 5/12
When drawing another red, the probability would be: 4/11
When taking the green: 4/10
When removing the blue: 3/9
Finally, the final probability is:
P = (5/12) * (4/11) * (4/10) * (3/9)
P = 0.020
In other words, the probability of this happening is 2%
