Answer:

The old tower has 150 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of steps in the old tower be m

Mathematically, time = distance/speed

In this case, the distance is the number of steps while the speed is the rate of climbing or descending

For climbing, time spent = m/3

For descending time spent = m/2

Since it took her 25 longer when descending;

This means that;

m/2 - m/3 = 25

(3m-2m)/6 = 25

m/6 = 25

m = 6 * 25

m = 150 steps

Select all the values that cannot be probabilities a. 3/5b. 1c. -0.45d. 0.06e. 1.16f. 0g. 5/3h. √2
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

c,-0.45 ,

e. 1.16

g. 5/3

h. √2

Cannot be probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of any occurrence is always in the interval of 0 to 1. 0 and 1 inclusive.

0≤P(A)≤1

Any value outside this boundaries cannot be probability.

Therefore, -0.45,1.16,5/3 and √2 cannot be probability.

Two similar solids have edges of 12 feet and 24 feet. If the smaller
nekit [7.7K]

Answer: 2,160\ ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the ratio of the lengths.

According to the information given in the exercise, one the solids has edges of  12 feet and the other solid has edges of 24 feet.

Therefore, the ratio of the length of the smaller solid to the length of the is the following:

k=\frac{24\ ft}{12\ ft}\\\\k=2

Now, the ratio to the volumes of the smaller solid to the other one is the following:

k^3=2^3=8

Then, knowing that the volume of the smaller solid is:

V_s=270\ ft^3

You get that the volime of the larger solid is:

V_l=270\ ft^3*8\\\\V_l=2,160\ ft^3
