Answer:

Probability to select a painting will be \frac{5}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Art collector is interested in 5 paintings, 6 vases and 2 statues.

We have to find the probability that she selects a painting.

Probability P(E)=\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}

So total number of outcomes n(S) = 5 + 6 + 2

n(S) = 13

Favorable event n(E) = 5

P(E)=\frac{5}{13}

Therefore, probability to select a painting will be \frac{5}{13}

Solve the equation using the order of operations.<br><br> 5+{2×[(5−1)+6]}÷4
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The order of operations is PEMDAS

First step is to do everything is parenthesis or brackets

5+{2*[(5-1)+6]}/4

{2*[(5-1)+6]}

First you would go 5-1=4, because that is the first equation that is in parenthesis by itself.

{2*[4+6]}

Next you would go 4+6=10, because that is your next smallest bracket

{2*10}

Last you would go 2*10=20

Your equation now looks like this

5+{20}/4

In PEMDAS your next step is exponents, but we don't have any so we go on to the next one which is multiply/division

5+5

You would go 20/4=5

Last step is to add/subtract

5+5=10

Your final answer would be 10

Hope this helps ;)

If E F = 7 , A C = 16 , and A F = 9
Vilka [71]

Answers:

CB = 14

GF = 8

FB = 9

EF is parallel to CB

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

Explanations:

Points E and F are midpoints of their respective sides. They form the midsegment EF. Because EF is a midsegment, A midsegment is half the length of its parallel counterpart, so CB is two times longer than EF. If EF is 7 units long, then CB = 2*EF = 2*7 = 14

For similar reasons, GF is parallel to AC. If AC = 16, then half of that is GF = (1/2)*AC = 0.5*16 = 8.

FB = FA = 9 as these segments have the same single tickmark to indicate they are the same length

EF is parallel to CB because EF is a midsegment, and this is one of the properties of being a midsegment. We can show that quadrilateral EGBF is a parallelogram to help prove this.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

1. 5700mg

2. 1000cm

3. 0.0453m

4. 37.5 kg/L

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 1gram (g) =1000milligrams(mg)

5.70×1000=5700mg

2. 1 m= 100cm

10×100=1000cm

3. 1000mm=1m

45.3/1000=0.0453m

4. 1000g=1kg

37.5/1000=0.0375

1000ml=1L

1ml= 1/1000= 0.001L

0.0375/0.001= 37.5 kg/L
