Answer:

13.9 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to answer this.  Folding the paper along its diagonal produces two triangles; each one has shorter side 8.5 in and longer side 11 in.  According to the Pyth. Thm., (8.5)^2 + 11^2 = 193.25, which results in the diagonal length √193.25, or approx. 13.9 in.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

A meeting on an unpopular topic has been announced. The number of attendees may be modeled by X where:

P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,...

What is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend?

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Given:

P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,...                    (1)

Since it is given that at least 2 attend, it implies that we need to calculate P(x) at x = 2.

Substituting x = 2 into equation (1), we have:

P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^(2 + 1)

P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^3

P(X = 2) = 1 / 8

P(X = 2) = 0.1250, or 12.50%

Therefore, is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.

Two angles are complementary and the measure of one is 36
marysya [2.9K]
Answer:The angles are 63 degrees and 27 degrees
This is true because when you subtract 27 from 63 you get 36. And when you add 27 to 63 you get 90 aka the complimentary angle we’re looking for.
