The aides of a right triangle will always satisfy the Pythagorean relationship ...

                   a² + b²=  c²

We can take each of these and try it out:

(1) ... 10² + 24² = 100 + 576  = 676
         √676 = <em>26  Yes</em>.

(2) ... 12² + 18²  =  144 + 324  =  468
           √468  =  21.6, not 20.  <em>No.</em>

(3) ... 15² + 26²  =  225 + 676  =  901
         √901  =  30.017  Awfully close.  As an engineer, I'll buy this one. <em>Yes.</em>

(4) ...  40² + 50²  =  1,600 + 2,500  =  4,100
          √4,100  =  64.03, not 80.<em>  No.</em>

viva [34]
Jeremy can choose his outfit in following ways:
2 ways to select a shirt
2 ways to select a pant
2 ways to select socks
3 ways to select the footwear.

Total number of ways to select the dress = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24 ways

Jeremy will select an outfit that includes flip-flops, argyle socks and denim pants. The shirt is not specified, so the shirt can be any.

So there are 2 ways to select a shirt, 1 way to select the pant, socks and footwear. So Jeremy can select the desired outfit in 2 ways.

Thus, the probability that Jeremy will select an outfit that includes flip-flops, argyle socks and denim pants = 2/24 = 1/12

Write the raito as a fraction simplest from 12 boys and 15 girls​
kiruha [24]

Step-by-step explanation: We can write a ratio using the word "to", using a colon, or using a fraction bar.

Here, since we want our ratio in simplest form,

I would use a fraction bar.

Now, the problem asks us to compare

the number of boys to the number of girls.

We know that there are 12 boys

and we know that there are 15 girls.

So our ratio is 12/15.

However, this can be reduced to 4/5.
