Answer:
The length of the equal side is 27 meters each and that of the unequal side is 36 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two sides being equal (also two equal base angles).
Let us assume the length of the two equal sides to be x meters each, and the length of the unequal side to be y meter. Since the perimeter of the triangle is 90 m, it can be expressed as:
x + x + y = 90
2x + y = 90
But the length of the equal side is three fourth of the unequal side, i.e x = 3/4y
Therefore:
2(3/4y) + y = 90
3/2y + y = 90
2.5y = 90
y = 90/2.5
y = 36 meters
Also x = 3/4 * 36 = 27 meters
The length of the equal side is 27 meters each and that of the unequal side is 36 meters
In a throw of 2 fair dice, there are 6*6=36 equiprobability outcomes.
To get a sum of 5, there are 4 ways, (1,4),(2,3),(3,2),(4,1) with probability of 4/36=1/9
To get at least one 5, there are 6+6-1=11 outcomes (note (5,5) has been counted in both, so subtracted from sum). The probability is 11/36
Since the two events are mutually exclusive (once we have a five, the sum can no longer be 5), we can add the probabilities to get the probability of one event or the other.
P(sum of 5 OR at least one 5)=1/9+11/36=4/36+11/36=15/36=5/9
Answer:
A) 2 miles, 5 miles, 8 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's get some details cleared.
We're interested in finding how many miles he walked at the end of each hour in a period of 3 hours.
We know what is, so we can use that as our starting point.
Your answer is A.
Answer:
The weight of Paula's dog is 36 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
SO we would draw one box for the weight of Carla's dog. Then we would draw 3 boxes for the weight of Paula's dog.
To find how much does Paula's dog weigh we divide the total weight of the dogs by the total number of boxes.
So then you would calculate 48 divided by 4.
The weight of Carla's dog is 12 pounds.
Therefore the weight of Paula's dog is 3x12=3x10+3x2=30+6=36 pounds.
