Answer: b. 1.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total tickets = 614,679

Winning ticket = 1

Number of tickets that not winning ticket= 614,679- 1 =614,678

Since , each ticket is independent of the other.

Number of tickets you bought = 3

Then, the probability that you lose all three times will be :

(\dfrac{614678}{614679})^3=0.9999\approx1.00

Hence, the the chance you lose all three times = 1.00

Thus , the correct answer is  b. 1.00 .

find the values of x and y that make these triangles congruent by the hl theorem x=2,y=3 x=-2,y=3x=3,y=2x=4,y=8
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The correct option is x=3 , y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the HL theorem if the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle then the triangles are congruent.

By using this theorem we can set up the system of equations as follows:

x=y+1 ...(1)

2x+3= 3y + 3 ..(2)

Now we will plug the value y+1 of equation 1 in equation 2.

2x+3 = 3y+3

2(y+1)+3=3y+3

2y+2+3=3y+3

2y+5=3y+3

Now combine the like terms:

5-3=3y-2y

2=y

y=2

Now plug the value y=2 in equation 1.

x=y+1

x=2+1

x=3

Thus the values of(x.y) are{(2,3)}

Therefore the correct option is x=3 , y=2 .....
