Answer:

FJ=39\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

△FEG is similar with △FHJ -----> by AA Similarity Theorem

so

\frac{FE}{FH}=\frac{FG}{FJ}

we have

FE=HF+EH=26+14=40\ units

FH=HF=26\ units

FG=60\ units

substitute the given values

\frac{40}{26}=\frac{60}{FJ}

FJ=26(60)/40\\FJ=39\ units

Weather records show that the probability of rainfall in Florida in June is 0.86. What is the probability that it rains there in
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
R - it is rain  (probablity: 0.86)
N - it is not rain (probablity: 1-0.86 = 0.14)
You've got these cases:

R R R R R R R R R N
R R R R R R R R N R
R R R R R R R N R R 
. . . 
N R R R R R R R R R     -  it is 10 cases.  Probablity each case is
(0.86)^9 * 0.14 - it is approximately  0.036   (9R and 1N - you multiply everything)

It is 10 cases so you have to multiply by 10  and you get 0.36

There is also eleventh case:

R R R R R R R R R R 

Probablity is (0.86)^10 approximately 0.22

Add these cases and you'll get your probablity:  0.36 + 0.22 = 0.58
