I would say that Betty will have a probability to guess 1/3 on the fourth question due to the test only having 10 multiple choice questions with three answers.

Answer: \dfrac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The number of multiple choices to each question = 3

We know  that in multiple choice question there is only one answer is correct .

Then the probability that she will guess correctly on any question is given by :-

=\dfrac{\text{Correct choice}}{\text{Total choices}}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{3}

Hence, the  the probability that she will guess correctly on the fourth question = \dfrac{1}{3}

What is the probability that a family of 4 children will have all girls?
Alex73 [517]
Since as of now we're saying that the probability of having a girl is 1/2, we can say:
1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2, because then you're saying a one half chance of having a girl times another one half chance of having a girl, etc.
 That ends up to be 1/16.

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are <em>similar</em> because they have:

  • a common angle (90°)
  • corresponding sides with lengths in a 3:1 ratio

All you need to do is to slide the smaller triangle into the larger one so that a small angle and one of its sides coincide.

Then the hypotenuses of each triangle will lie along the same line.
