Answer:   \bold{\dfrac{7}{8}=87.5\%}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

"At least one girl" means P(1 girl) + P(2 girls) + P(3 girls)   or   1 - P(all boys)

I will use the latter: 1 - P(all boys)

P(all boys) = \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{8}

1 - P(all\ boys) \quad = \quad 1-\dfrac{1}{8}\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{7}{8}}

The height of a right cylinder is 2r, where r is the radius. Write a function f in simplest form that represents the ratio of th
makkiz [27]
F = 3/r.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is

V=πr²h.  We know that h=2r, so this gives us:

V = πr²(2r) = 2πr³

The surface area of a cylinder is the sum of the areas of all of the faces.  The bottom and top are circles, whose areas are both given by A=πr².  The lateral area of a cylinder is given by the circumference multiplied by the height.  C = 2πr, and the height is 2r, so the lateral area would be

A=(2πr)(2r)= 4πr².  This gives us a total surface area of

SA = 4πr²+πr²+πr² = 6πr².

The ratio of surface area to volume would be:

SA/V = 6πr²/2πr³.  After simplifying, we have f=3/r.

troy is going to spain and needs to convert his dollars to euros. He knows that when he goes, $5.00 is equivalent to about 3.45
astraxan [27]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

3.45/5=0.69

0.69x$125=86.25

0.75x$125=93.75

93.75-86.25=$7.5

Troy would get $7.50 more than he would have if the exchange rate had stayed at .69

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

m = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope Formula: m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

Simply plug in our coordinates to find slope:

m = (11 - 2)/(5 - 8)

m = 9/-3

m = -3
