the rectangular swimming pool in my backyard is 15 feet wide and 30 feet long. I have a raft in the shape of a right triangle wi
th a base of 3 feet and a height of 4 feet. if I jump off of the diving board into the pool what is the probability that I will land on my raft?

Hey there!
First of all, let's find the area of the pool.
15(30)=450 feet squared.
Now, let's find the area of the triangle.
4(3)=12/2=6 feet squared
Assuming that you can land anywhere in the pool, including the diving board (as we didn't get any measurements for it so that we can eliminate it)
This gives us 6/450, which simplifies to 1/75.
Therefore, you have 1/75 or 1.3% chance of landing on the raft.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
The length will be letter C, 50 m
A equals 3
Equation is g(x)=3f(x)
What i did is notice the y intercept is at 3 so I plugged in x=0 into the parent equation and got f(0)=1
So to get this equation to the y=3 intercept which is the g function, you have to multiply it by 3
53/100 ÷ 5 can be reduced down to

Good Luck! :)
The decrease in the value of the toy is $9.25 if you subtract $ 0.75 from $10.00 then you get $9.25 so it's $9.25 cheaper
