I probably not going to explain this right but here it goes So since he has 2 dimes in his pocket he is most likely going to pull out a dime because the most he has of one coin is two and they are both dimes and the other is a 50 cent piece.

Well, from what I can tell he has 1 50 cent piece, 2 Dimes, and 2 Pennies. Meaning 5 objects in total, considering that it asks for "at least ten cents" that would mean the 2 Dimes and the 1 50 cent piece.
Since that is 3 objects out of the 5, being 3/5ths, that would mean he has a 60% chance or probability for the first draw.

Hopefully that helps. ^ ^

A 25 ft. ladder resting against the side of a building forms a right triangle with the ground. The bottom of the ladder is 7 ft.
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The correct answer is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this you will need to use the pathagreom theorum

a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}

A= one side lenth

B= the secons side lenth

C= hypotnuse

It is helpfull to draw out the situation

you know that the latter is 25 ft, that is your hypotnuse

you also know that the 7 ft away from the base of the building is one of the side lenths, lets call it side a

so plug the numbers into the equation

7^2 + b^2 = 25 ^2

you leave b^2 alone because that is the side you are trying to find

now square 7 and 25 but leave b^2 alone

49 + b^2 = 625

now subtract 49 from both sides

b^2 = 576

now to get rid of the square of b you have to do the opposite and square root both sides removing the square of the B and giving you the answer of..........

B= 24

Hope this helped!! I tryed to explain it as simpil as possiable
