Answer:

P= 0.0039

Step-by-step explanation:

From Exercise we have 12 women and 4 men.

We calculate the number of combinations of 16 people, to be divided into 4 teams of 4 people each.

{16}_C_{4} · {12}_C_{4} · {8}_C_{4} =

=\frac{16!}{4!·(16-4)!} · \frac{12!}{4!·(12-4)!}· \frac{8!}{4!·(8-4)!}

=1820 · 495 ·  105

=94594500

The number of favorable combinations is

{12}_C_{3} · {9}_C_{3} · {6}_C_{3} =

=\frac{12!}{3!·(12-3)!} · \frac{9!}{3!·(9-3)!}· \frac{6!}{3!·(6-3)!}

=220 · 84 ·  20

=369600

The  probability is 369600/94594500=16/4095=0.0039

P= 0.0039

The radius of circle O is 28, and OC =9. What is the length of AB?
aksik [14]
The answer:
the complement of the question proposed one of the choices given beneath:
a) 58.8
b) 53.0
c) 29.4
d) 26.5

as we observe at the figure, AOB an isosceles triangle, and OCB is a right triangle

consider OCB
OC =9, OB= radius = 28
the problem is how to find the length of CA, for that C is a midpoint of segment AB, so AC=BC

BC can be found by using pythagorean theorem
OB²= OC² + CB²,  this implies CB² = OB² - OC²

CB² = 28² - 9² = 784 - 81=703, therefore CB= sqrt (703)=26.51

CB=26.51, since CB= AC, so  AC=CB= 26.51

finally the <span>the length of AB is AB = 2 x CB = 2x AC= 2x 26.51= 53.0
</span>
the answer is b) 53.0

Are these polygons similar ? Explain why or why not.
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Yes, the polygons are similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

A similar polygon is a polygon that shares the same scale factor as another polygon. A scale factor is a number you can multiply each side by to get a similar figure,


Step 1:

Divide a few of the sides. You do not need to divide every side to find the ratio, but do at least 2 or 3 to guarantee that the scale factor remains the same throughout the sides. Let’s divide a few pairs of sides.

27/18=1.5

30/20=1.5

21/14=1.5

Step 2:

To really be safe, even though we can clearly tell this is a similar figure, is we can multiply each side on the right figure by 1.5, our scale factor, and see if we generate the sides on the left figure.

18*1.5=27

20*1.5=30

14*1.5=21

And this is why the polygons are similar :)

Please help thank you​
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(x^2+9x+10)(x-2)= \\\\x^3-2x^2+9x^2-18x+10x-20= \\\\x^3+7x^2-8x-20

Jimmy is incorrect.

Using long division, you can find that the real answer.

First, subtract x^2(x-2) from the original expression, leaving you with 9x^2+2x-40.

Next, subtract 9x(x-2) from the expression, leaving you with 20x-40. Finally, subtract 20(x-2) from the expression, leaving you with a remainder of 0. This means that the real quotient is x^2+9x+20. Hope this helps!
