Answer:
Solution Let E1 be the event that coin 1 is selected and E2 the event that coin 2 is selected. Let F be the event that exactly 7 of the 10 flips lands on heads, let G be the event that the fist flip is heads.
Answer:
12 pounds
Explanation:
If you were to divide 12.24 from 12 you would get 1.02, which would be the cost of each pound.
Meanwhile, if you were to divide 8.24 from 8 you would get 1.03, which would be the cost of each pound.
So although its only a 1 cent difference and you are technically spending more by buying the 12 pounds, if it were to buy 8 pounds from the cost of each pound for the 12 pounds, you'd only be spending $8.16 vs $8.24.
Because you would multiply 1.02, which is the cost of each pound for 12, by 8 and you would get 8.16.
<h3>Answer:</h3>
C. The playable area has a width of 9 inches and a height of 6 inches.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
There are a number of ways you can get there.
1. Check the answers to see which have the right area and aspect ratio.
- A: area = 24 in² — does not match 54 in²
- B: area = 54 in², aspect ratio 6:9 = 2:3 — does not match 3:2 aspect ratio
- C: area = 54 in², aspect ratio 9:6 = 3:2 — <em>matches problem statement</em>
- D: area = 121.5 in² — does not match 54 in²
2. If the screen were 3:2 (inches), its area would be 6 in². The area of 54 in² is 9 times that value, so the actual screen dimensions are √9 = 3 times 3:2. That is, they are width:height = 9:6 inches — matches selection C.
3. You can write equations for width and height and solve.
Substituting w=3/2·h into the second equation gives
... (3/2)h·h = 54
... h² = 36 . . . . . multiply by 2/3
... h = √36 = 6 . . . . square root, result in inches . . . . matches selection C
A pool that is 5/10 full has less water.
5/10 = 50%
9/10 = 90%
