not be a probability because it is larger than​ 100%. B. The number 5.42 could not be a probability because it is larger than 1. C. The number 0.001 could not be a probability because it is extremely small. D. The number 0.58 could not be a probability because it is smaller than 1. E.

Answer:

A, B and E could not be probabilities

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, <u>a probability could be any number between 0 and 1. </u>So a probability P would be 0≤P≤1. In percentages, 0% ≤ P ≤ 100%

Considering this we would have that:

A) 110% could not be a probability because it's larger than 100%

B) 5.42 could not be a probability because it's larger than 1.

C) 0.001 could be a probability because it's larger than 0 and smaller than 1 (It doesn't matter how small it is)

D) 0.58 could be a probability because it's between 0 and 1.

E) -120% could not be a probability because it's smaller than zero. (it's a negative number)

Thus, A), B) and E) could not be probabilities.

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

61,01%

Step-by-step explanation:

We must consider that her total energy intake is the addition of the energy given by the carbohydrates, fats and proteins she takes.

1g of carbohydrates contains 4kcal

1g of proteins contains 4kcal

1g of fat contains 9 kcal.

That is: 243 g of carbohidrates is equal to 972 kcal; 41g of fat is equal to 369 kcal and 63 g of proteins is equal to 252 kcal.

If we sum up all the calories she intakes in one day, the result is= 972kcal+369kcal+252kcal=1593kcal.

Now, we make a rule of 3: If 1593kcal is the 100% of the intake, then 972kcal = 972kcal*100%/1593kcal = 61,01%

Please help!!<br> Each pair of polygons is similar. Find the value of x.
Simora [160]

Answer in fraction form: x = 55/4

Answer in decimal form: x = 13.75

Both forms are equivalent, but they say it in a slightly different way.

===========================================================

Work Shown:

AC/QY = CD/YW

(x+5)/15 = 5/4

4(x+5) = 15*5

4x+20 = 75

4x = 75-20

4x = 55

x = 55/4

x = 13.75

------------

Explanations:

  • The first step is possible because the polygons are similar. Similar figures have their corresponding sides be in the same proportion or ratio. Note how side AC has the double red angle (at point A) and a single red angle (point C). The side QY has the same idea in the same order. This is why AC corresponds to QY. The ratio AC/QY is the same as CD/YW.
  • In the second step, I plugged in the expressions that the diagram shows. This is the substitution property.
  • On step 3, I cross multiplied. The general format is A/B = C/D cross multiplies to A*D = B*C.
