There is a total of 66 socks on the floor the chance of picking up a red sock is 30 in 66 which is equal to a 45% chance.  After picking up one sock the chances of getting another red sock is 29 in 65 which is around 44%.  Now I believe your answer is 45% or around 30 socks.  I hope this helped but please let me know.

Quadrilateral ABCD?<br>​
Mashutka [201]

The given quadrilateral is a kite.

Given: Point A (2, 4), B (-2, -5), C (7, -1) and D (7, 4)

Firstly, we find the distance between AD and DC

AD = \sqrt{(7 - 2)^{2} + (4 - 4)^{2}  }

⇒ AD = \sqrt{5^{2} }

⇒ AD = 5

DC = \sqrt{(7 - 7)^{2} + (4 - (-1))^{2} }

⇒ DC = \sqrt{5^{2} }

⇒ DC = 5

Hence, AD = DC = 5

Now, find the distance between AB and BC

AB = \sqrt{(-2 - 2)^{2}  + (-5 - 4)^{2} }

⇒ AB = \sqrt{(-4)^{2} + (-9)^{2}  }

⇒ AB = \sqrt{16 + 81}

⇒ AB = \sqrt{97}

BC = \sqrt{(7 - (-2))^{2} + (-1 - (-5))^{2}  }

⇒ BC = \sqrt{9^{2}  + 4^{2} }

⇒ BC = \sqrt{81 + 16}

⇒ BC = \sqrt{97}

Hence, AB = BC = √97

In the given quadrilateral, the two pair is of equal length and these sides are adjacent to each other.

Hence, it follows the property of kite.

68 * 27 - 81 + ? = 600
tankabanditka [31]

The missing term is -1155.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is

68 * 27 - 81 + ? = 600

Let the missing term be x

68*27-81+x=600\\1836-81+x=600\\1755+x=600

Subtracting 1755 from both sides

1755-1755+x=600-1755\\x=-1155

Therefore,

The missing term is -1155.
