The question also states that Lucy has a winning probability of 1/50, which means that she has 1 chance of winning if the total runners were 50. Therefore, there are 49 runners who may be faster than her.
The fact that Lucy is the 50th slowest runner, means that starting from the slowest she is in 50th position, therefore there are 49 runners that are slower than her.
The total number of runners will be the sum of those faster than Lucy, those slower than Lucy and Lucy:
49 + 49 + 1 = 99
There are 99 runners in Lucy's school.
Answer:
x = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
using the sine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value
sin60° = 
, then
sin60° = 
= 
= ( cross- multiply )
2x = 3 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 1.5
(-5/6)+(-5/6) have the same denominator (number at bottom of fraction), so all you have to do is add the numerator(top number). So -5 +-5 =-10 . Now you have -10/6, which simplifies to -5/3.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
This is just multiplying not simplify.
