Answer:

Probability = \frac{1}{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Oranges = 3

Apples = 5

Banana = 2

Total = 10

Required

Determine the probability of 1 orange, 1 apple and 1 banana

Since, order is not important:

Probability = P(Orange) * P(Apple) * P(Banana)

Probability = \frac{3}{10} * \frac{5}{9} * \frac{2}{8}

<em>The difference in the numerator is as a result of picking the fruit without replacement</em>

Probability = \frac{30}{720}

Probability = \frac{1}{24}

Use the Distance Formula to find the distance between each pair of points. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
Eduardwww [97]
3. Sqrt of 40

4. Sqrt of 148


Distance formula is sqrt of (x-x1)^2+(y-y1)^2

So (-4-2)^2+ (3-5)^2

(-6)^2+(-2)^2

36+4

Sqrt of 40

Do the same process for 4!

Ps don’t forget to keep the square root

2(x/8 + 3) = 7 + 1/4x what is x
malfutka [58]

Answer:

x1 = 2 -\sqrt{5}

x2= 2 +\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

x/4 + 6 = 7 + 1/4x

(x^2 - 1)/4x = 1

x^2 - 1 = 4x

x^2 - 4x -1 = 0

x= (4+\sqrt{20})/2 = 2 -\sqrt{5}

x= 2 +\sqrt{5}

Find the surface area of the regular pentagonal pyramid.
mr_godi [17]
Area of each side triangle is 1/2*8*15 = 60. There are 5 of them so the triangles have surface area 300. the pentagon's area 1/2*apothegm*sidelength*sides = 1/2*5.5*8*5 = 110. The total area is therefore 300+110 = 410
