Answer:

A: 14/65

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event of pulling a blue marble first, there are 28 blue marbles

Let B be the event of pulling a red marble second, there are 12 red marbles

There are 40 total marbles in the bag.

So

P(A) = 28/40

Since he pulls two marbles with out replacement, there is one less marble in the bag when he pulls the second marble, so there are only 39 marbles left, so

P(B) = 12/39

When calculating the probability of multiple events, you multiply their probabilities together, so we have

P(A then B) = (28/40)(12/39) = 336/1560

Now reduce the fraction...

112/520

28/130

14/65

Is 15,36,39 a right triangle
NeTakaya

Answer:

Yes, is a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

To know if you can build a right triangle with those sides we have to make the following equality

h² = l1² + l2²

The hypotenuse is always the longest side so it should be 39

we check the equality of the equation

39² = 15² + 36²

1521 = 225 + 1296

1521 = 1521

Equality was fulfilled so it is a right triangle
