leg2^2 = 289 -64
leg2^2 = 225
leg2 = 15

S=[E,F,G,H,J] identify the ways to select two members from s allowing the repetition
Fofino [41]

Answer: There are 25 ways to select two members.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

S={E,F,G,H,J}

Number of elements = 5

We need to select two members from S allowing the repetition.

We will use "Fundamental theorem of counting":

There are 5 choices for the first member.

There are 5 choices for the second member.

So, Number of ways would be

5\times 5\\\\=25

Hence, there are 25 ways to select two members.

Which is bigger 0.17 or 0.165
Bogdan [553]
0.17 is bigger because you compare the values of the number in each place. There is no whole number, the tenths place is equal. Then in the hundredths place you have a 6 and a 7. 6<7 so therefore 0.17> 0.165. To help yourself out u can add a 0 at the end to then more easily compare .170 to .165
