Answer:

Hence, the probability is:

\dfrac{1}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of chips of different colors in Vicky's bag is shown below:

5 blue chips   11 pink chips       9 white chips.

The total number of chips in Vicky's bag are: 25

( since, 5+11+9=25 chips)

Also,

the choosing of the chip is done on the basis of replacement.

This means when one chip is drawn it is put back into the bag and then the other chip is drawn.

Let P denote the probability of an event.

This means that:

P(Blue)=5/25

( Since there are 5 blue chips out of 25 chips)

As the drawing of chip in first draw is independent of the second draw.

Hence, the probability that Vicky takes out a blue chip in both draws is calculated as:

P(Choosing\ Blue\ in\ both\ draw)=P(Blue)\times P(Blue)\\\\P(Choosing\ Blue\ in\ both\ draw)=\dfrac{5}{25}\times \dfrac{5}{25}\\\\P(Choosing\ Blue\ in\ both\ draw)=\dfrac{1}{25}

Which statements are true for the given quadrilaterals? Choose all answers that are correct. A. All trapezoids are quadrilateral
svetlana [45]
Trapezoids always have 4 sides, so this is true. All rhombuses have parallel sides, so B is true also. A trapezoid has two sides that are not parallel, so C is not true. (remember, you only have to find one instance where your statement is false for it to be false) And for D, all rhombuses are kite-shaped so D is not true. A and B are true. Hope this helps. :)

A fireman's water hose shoots 320 kg of water each second against the door of a building. The velocity of the water is 20 m/s an
NeX [460]

Answer:

6400\ \text{N}

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{m}{t} = Mass flow rate of water = 320 kg/s

m = Mass of water on the door

t = Time

v = Velocity of water on the door = 20 m/s

Force is given by

F=\dfrac{m}{t}v\\\Rightarrow F=320\times 20\\\Rightarrow F=6400\ \text{N}

The average force is exerted by the stream of water is 6400\ \text{N}.
