Prob ( a tail in one toss) = 1/2

Prob( 3 tails in 3 tosses) = 1/2 ^3

=  1/8 (answer)

Triangle DEF is a right triangle. If FE=5 and DF=13, find DE.
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

I am amusing you are looking for the hypotenuse since this is middle school.

If you have the legs and are looking for the hypotenuse you use the Pythagorean Theorem a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

The legs are a and b, and the hypotenuse is c

The work would look like this

13^{2} + 5^{2} = c^{2} \\169+25= c^{2} \\194= c^{2} \\\sqrt{194} = \sqrt{c^{2} } \\13.9283883... = c

extra notes

  • I rounded to 13
  • If you didn;t know you cancles exponents with roots

so the c^{2} is cancled by aka \sqrt{c}

Hope this helped :)

A science experiment calls for mixing 3 and two-thirds cups of distilled water with 1 and three-fourths cups of vinegar and Two-
Sonbull [250]

Answer: 6 and 1/12 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we add 3 and 2/3 + 1 and 3/4 + 2/3. We can change these mixed numbers into improper fractions to make the math easier:

11/3 + 7/4 + 2/3

Next, we can add the 11/3 and 2/3 since they have the same denominator (bottom number). This gives us 13/3.

13/3 + 7/4

Now that we have two fractions, we just add them together. This leaves us with 6 and 1/2.

If you're having trouble with adding fractions with denominators that aren't the same, here are some videos (if you can't click the link, just copy and paste into the search bar):

Find the dimensions of the shaded region so that its area is maximized.<br> x=<br> y=
musickatia [10]
1.  Find the equation of the line AB.  For reference, the answer is y=(-2/3)x+2.
2.  Derive a formula for the area of the shaded rectange.  It is A=xy (where x is the length and y is the height).
3.  Replace "y" in A=xy with the formula for y:  y= (-2/3)x+2:
       
                 A=x[(-2/3)x+2]    This is a formula for Area A in terms of x only.
4.  Since we want to maximize the shaded area, we take the derivative with respect to x of    A=x[(-2/3)x+2] , or, equivalently, A=(-2/3)x^2 + 2x.
This results in   (dA/dx) = (-4/3)x + 2.
5.  Set this result = to 0 and solve for the critical value:  

(dA/dx) = (-4/3)x + 2=0, or (4/3)x=2   This results in x=(3/4)(2)=3/2

6.  Verify that this critical value x=3/2 does indeed maximize the area function.
7.  Determine the area of the shaded rectangle for x=3/2, using the previously-derived formula          A=(-2/3)x^2 + 2x.

The result is the max. area of the shaded rectangle.
