Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

the answer cannot be 5. Why? Because the minimum will occur when 12 and 5 point in opposite directions like both are on the x axis pointing to 0 from the east and pointing to zero coming from the west.

12 - 5 = 7

You cannot get a result less than that.

A bag contains 20 identical balls of which 12 are white and 8 are black in colour. 3 balls are drawn randomly without any replac
Kaylis [27]

The probability of picking 2 white balls and 1 black ball is 0.154

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Number of balls, n = 20
  • White = 12
  • Black = 8

When each ball is selected, the total number of ball decreases by 1 and the type of ball also decreases.

So, the probability is represented as:

P(2 white and 1 black) = White/n * White - 1/n - 1 * Black//n - 2

Substitute known values

P(2 white and 1 black) = 12/20 * 11/19 * 8//18

Evaluate

P(2 white and 1 black) = 0.154

Hence, the probability of picking 2 white balls and 1 black ball is 0.154

Find the value of x in similar polygons below
muminat

Answer:

Choice A

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have two shapes that are similar their sides are always proportional. So all we have to do is set up a proportion.

\frac{18}{4.5}=\frac{x}{1.5}

Now we cross multiply and solve

27=4.5x\\x=6

And that's it x equals 6 feet.
