Answer:

<h2>A  16mm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle is a triangle that has all of its sides equal.

Perimeter of an equilaterial triangle = 3s where;

s is one side of the triangle.

Given the perimeter of ABC = 96mm

Substituting into the formula above to get s;

96 = 3s

s = 96/3

s = 32mm

Hence the length of one side of the triangle is 32mm

If a perpendicular bisector is drawn from angle A to side Line segment B C at point M, then MC will be half of BC and ΔAMC will be a right angled triangle.

Since all the sides of the triangle are equal, hence BC = 32mm. Since MC is the half of BC, then MC = 1/2 of 32mm

MC = 1/2 * 32mm

MC = 16mm

<em>Hence the length of Line segment MC is 16mm</em>

If the 1/3 candy is shared into three equal parts. Then the fraction of the candy bar will each kid get will be 1/9.

<h3>What is division?</h3>

Division means the separation of something into different parts, sharing of something among different people, places, etc.

Alex has 1/3 of a candy bar.

He wants to share what he has left of his candy bar with his 2 friends so that all three of them get equal portions.

Then the fraction of the candy bar will each kid get will be

\rightarrow \dfrac{1/3}{3}\\\\\rightarrow  \dfrac{1}{3\times3}\\\\\rightarrow  \dfrac{1}{9}

the initial price of a home entertainment system is $34,000. It is discounted by 10% and then by a further 26%. Find the price o
maria [59]
The final price of the item is $22,644

The initial discount of 10% leaves the price at 90% of the retail value:
\frac{x}{34000}  =  \frac{90}{100}
cross multiply to solve for x:
100x = 3,060,000
x = 30,600
This new price is then discounted 26%, which means the final price is 74% of $30,600:
\frac{x}{30600}  =  \frac{74}{100}
cross multiply to solve for x:
100x = 2,264,400
x = 22,644
The final price of the home entertainment system is $22,644

Use the table to write a quadratic function in vertex form. Then rewrite the function in standard form.
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph decreases at first, then changes direction at (2, 5).

y = a(x-2)^2 + 5

Plug in (1,11) and solve for a:

11 = a(1-2)^2 + 5

a = 6

Equation in vertex form:

y = 6(x-2)^2 + 5

In a football or soccer game, you have 22 players, from both teams, in the field. what is the probability of having at least any
Tamiku [17]

We can solve this problem using complementary events. Two events are said to be complementary if one negates the other, i.e. E and F are complementary if

E \cap F = \emptyset,\quad E \cup F = \Omega

where \Omega is the whole sample space.

This implies that

P(E) + P(F) = P(\Omega)=1 \implies P(E) = 1-P(F)

So, let's compute the probability that all 22 footballer were born on different days.

The first footballer can be born on any day, since we have no restrictions so far. Since we're using numbers from 1 to 365 to represent days, let's say that the first footballer was born on the day d_1.

The second footballer can be born on any other day, so he has 364 possible birthdays:

d_2 \in \{1,2,3,\ldots 365\} \setminus \{d_1\}

the probability for the first two footballers to be born on two different days is thus

1 \cdot \dfrac{364}{365} = \dfrac{364}{365}

Similarly, the third footballer can be born on any day, except d_1 and d_2:

d_3 \in \{1,2,3,\ldots 365\} \setminus \{d_1,d_2\}

so, the probability for the first three footballers to be born on three different days is

1 \cdot \dfrac{364}{365} \cdot \dfrac{363}{365}

And so on. With each new footballer we include, we have less and less options out of the 365 days, since more and more days will be already occupied by another footballer, and we can't have two players born on the same day.

The probability of all 22 footballers being born on 22 different days is thus

\dfrac{364\cdot 363 \cdot \ldots \cdot (365-21)}{365^{21}}

So, the probability that at least two footballers are born on the same day is

1-\dfrac{364\cdot 363 \cdot \ldots \cdot (365-21)}{365^{21}}

since the two events are complementary.
