Total number of shirts = 5+3 =8

Number of short sleeve shirts =5

Probability of choosing two shirts which has short sleeves out of 5 short sleeves shirts= 5C2

Probability of choosing two shirts which has short sleeves out of 8 shirts = 8C2

Now we have to find probability of choosing 2 short sleeves shirts.

The formula to be used is 5C2/8C2 , so answer would be 5/14.

Answer : The probability of choosing two short sleeve shirts without looking is 5/14. So correct option is option c. 5/14

If the sum of a number and seven is tripled, the result is three less than twice the number. Find the number
hram777 [196]

Answer:

x = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 7) = 2x - 3

3 * x = 3x

3 * 7 = 21

3x + 21 = 2x - 3

-21            -21

3x = 2x -24

-2x   -2x

x = -24

The altitude (i.e., height) of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/minute while the area of the triangle is increasing at
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

A = 1/2 B H       area = 1/2 base X height

B = 2 A / H = 2 * 99 / 12 = 16.5 cm

dA / d t = 1/2 * (B dH / dt + H dB / dt)

dB / dt = (2 dA / dt - B dH / dt) / H

dB / dt = (2 * 1.5 cm^2 / min - 16.5 cm * 2 cm / min) / 12 cm

dB / dt = (3 - 33) / 12 cm/min = -2.5 cm/min
