Answer:

0.575

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two types of probabilities:

1. Theoretical Probability

2. Experimental Probability

The probability based on mathematical theories is called theoretical probability. It is not always true. i.e. the probability of getting a head in a toss of coin is 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%

Experimental probability is based on experiments. Experimental probability is always going to change whenever the experiment is performed.

The theoretical probability of getting a head while tossing a coin will always be 50% while experimental probability might be different the next time, experiment is performed.

In this case, the experimental probability will be 23/40 or 0.575 ..

The triangle <span>pyramid</span>  is made up of 4 triangles.

------------------------------------
Formula:
------------------------------------
Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height

------------------------------------
Area of the bottom triangle:
------------------------------------
Area = 1/2 x 9 x 7.8
Area = 35.1 yd²

------------------------------------
Area of the 3 side triangles:
------------------------------------
Area = 3 [ 1/2 x 9 x 10 ]
Area = 135 yd²

------------------------------------
Total Area:
------------------------------------
Total Area = 135 + 35.1 
Total Area = 170.1 yd²

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Surface Area = 170.1 yd².

sergejj [24]

Answer:

I took them a total of 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First you multiply 65 by 2 because of the first two hours

Then you subtract 130 out of 364 to get 234, those were the first two hours

The next hours you simply divide 234/78, which is 3

3 + 2 = 5 hours

How do you express your terms in pi
il63 [147K]

Answer:

To express your answer in terms of pi, simply refrain from substituting pi's numerical value for its symbol in the equation. That way, your answer will look like xπ where x is whatever number you come up with, and π is simply a placeholder.
