If we write all the possible combinations for this problem, 4/16 or 1/4 would be the answer.

BGGG
GBGG
GGBG
GGGB

This is not taking into consideration the specific order of the children. In case the order will be necessary, the Girls need to be labeled differently and permutation formula needs to be used.

Okay, all of these pairs add up to 1 or 100%, except for one pair. I'll convert them all to decimals, so all must add up to 1.

3/8 = 0.375
0.625 + 0.375 = 1

62% = 0.62
0.38 + 0.62 = 1

7/8 = 0.875
0.875 + 0.125 = 1

70% = 0.70
1/3 <span>≈</span> 0.33
0.70 + 0.33 = 1.03

So the last pair of probabilities(70%, 1/3) does not belong with the other three because it does not add up to 1 like the others.

The surface area of a given cone is 1,885.7143 square inches. What is the slang height?
nasty-shy [4]

This question is not complete. This is because it lacks the appropriate diagram containing necessary information to solve this question.

Please find attached the appropriate diagram to solve for this question

Complete Question :

The surface area of a given cone is 1,885.7143 square inches. What is the slant height?

Answer:

25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram, we are given the following information

Height of the cone = 20 inches

Radius of the cone = 15 inches.

The formula for the slant height of a cone represented by l =

l² = r² + h²

l = √(r² + h²)

l = √(15² + 20²)

l = √(225 + 400)

l = √625

l = 25 inches

Therefore, the slant height of this cone = 25 inches

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the information you're being asked for, you need to complete the square on that quadratic. The first step is to move the constant over to the other side of the equals sign:

x^2-2x=3

Here would be the step where, if the leading coefficient isn't a 1, you'd factor it out. But ours is a 1, so we're good there. Now take half the linear term (the term with the single x on it), square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is a -2.  Half of -2 is -1, and -1 squared is +1. We add +1 to both sides giving us this:

x^2-2x+1=3+1

Now we'll clean it up a bit. The right side becomes a 4, and the left side is written as its perfect square binomial, which is the whole reason we did this. That binomial is

(x-1)^2=4 (set equal to the 4 here). Now we'll move the 4 back over and set the whole thing back equal to y:

y=(x-1)^2-4

From this it's apparent what the vertex is: (1, -4),

the axis of symmetry is x = 1, and

the y-intercept is found by setting the x's equal to 0 in the original  equation and solving for y. So the y-intercept is (0, -3).

Your choice for the correct answer is the very last one there.
