Answer:

33.3% probability that both children are girls, if we know that the family has at least one daughter named Ann.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The family has two children.

The sample space, that is, the genders of the children may be divided in the following way, in which b means boy and g means girl.

b - b

b - g

g - b

g - g

We know that they have at least one girl. So the sample space is:

b - g

g - b

g - g

What is the probability that both children are girls, if we know that the family has at least one daughter named Ann?

Desired outcomes:

Both children being girls, so

g - g

1 desired outcome

Total outcomes

b - g

g - b

g - g

3 total outcomes

Probability

1/3 = 0.333

33.3% probability that both children are girls, if we know that the family has at least one daughter named Ann.

The condition_______?proves that ∆ABC and ∆EFG are congruent by the SAS criterion.
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

(1)  D.Angle C is congruent to to Angle F. (2) C. SSS. (3) C. cannot be congruent to.

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

From the given figure it is noticed that

AC=EG

CB=GF

According to SAS postulate,  if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then both triangles are congruent.

The included angles of congruent sides are angle C and angle G.

So, condition "Angle C is congruent to to Angle F"  will prove that the ∆ABC and ∆EFG are congruent by the SAS criterion.

2)

If AB\neq EF

According to SSS postulate,  if all three sides in one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides in the other.

Since two corresponding sides are congruent but third sides of triangles are not congruent, therefore SSS criterion for congruence is violated.

3)

Since two corresponding sides are congruent but third sides of triangles are not congruent, therefore the included angle of congruent sides are different.

\angle C\neq \angle G

Therefore angle C and angle F cannot be congruent to each other.

A model of a famous statue is 2 1/2 inches tall. The actual statue is 3 1/3 feet tall. What is the ratio of the height of the mo
Gekata [30.6K]

1. A model of a famous statue is 2\dfrac{1}{2} inches tall that is

\dfrac{2\cdot 2+1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{2} in.

2. The actual statue is 3\dfrac{1}{3} feet tall that is

\dfrac{3\cdot 3+1}{3}=\dfrac{10}{3}\ ft=\dfrac{10}{3}\cdot 12=40\ in.

3. The ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual statue in simplest form is

\dfrac{\dfrac{5}{2}}{40}=\dfrac{5}{2}\cdot \dfrac{1}{40}=\dfrac{1}{16}.

Answer: \dfrac{1}{16}.
