To find the ratio of the areas, we are obviously going to first need to find the areas of the inner and outer squares. The outer square has a side length of a because we are a units away from 0 on the x-axis. Thus, the area of the outer square is a^2.


We can see that a right triangle is formed by part of the x-axis, part of the y-axis, and the side of the inner square. Thus, we can find the length of the inner square through the Pythagorean Theorem, which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the legs of the right triangle and c is the hypotenuse. The lengths of the legs of the right triangle in the picture are (a - b) and b. We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the other side length.

(a - b)^2 + b^2 = c^2

c = \sqrt{(a - b)^2 + b^2}


We have now found that the side length of the inner square is \sqrt{(a -b)^2 + b^2}. Thus, the area of the inner square is (a - b)^2 + b^2.


Using the two areas we just found, we can say that the ratio of the area of the inner square to the area of the outer square is \dfrac{(a - b)^2 + b^2}{a^2}, or choice A.

In a group of a hundred and fifty students attending a youth workshop in mombasa, 125 of them are fluent in kiswahili, 135 in en
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

The probability that a student chosen at random is fluent in English or Swahili.

P(S∪E) = 1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):</em></u>-

Given total number of students n(T) = 150

Given 125 of them are fluent in Swahili

Let 'S' be the event of fluent in  Swahili language

n(S) = 125

The probability that the fluent in  Swahili language

P(S) = \frac{n(S)}{n(T)} = \frac{125}{150} = 0.8333

Let 'E' be the event of fluent in English language

n(E) = 135

The probability that the fluent in  English language

P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(T)} = \frac{135}{150} = 0.9

n(E∩S) = 95

The probability that the fluent in  English and Swahili

P(SnE) = \frac{n(SnE)}{n(T)} = \frac{95}{150} = 0.633

<u><em>Step(ii):</em></u>-

The probability that a student chosen at random is fluent in English or Swahili.

P(S∪E) = P(S) + P(E) - P(S∩E)

           = 0.833+0.9-0.633

           = 1.1

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

The probability that a student chosen at random is fluent in English or Swahili.

P(S∪E) = 1.1
