The no. of letters in the world (MATH) = 4

the no. of favourable outcomes = 10

hence‚ probability of getting the letters (MATH) 2/5

So "MATHCOUNTS" has 10 letters.

And "MATH" has 4 letters.

So the probability of you getting the letters "M" "A" "T" "H" is 4/10 or 2/5.

But it has to be in order...

There are 32 ways you can arrange the 4 letters. There is only 1 way you can write "MATH"

So 1/32 probability of 2/5 is 2/160 or 1/80

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = Distance/time

Therefore time must = distance/speed

Since the two students are running apart from eachother, we can add their speeds together.

Also we can subtract 10 feet from our goal of 1870 since they're already 10 feet apart.

1860 feet/(150+1650) feet per minute

We can cancel out the feet since it's a common term.

And we're left with 6 minutes.

Solve for x give answer as radicals (roots)
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Use pythagorean theorem: a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2}

8^{2} +x^{2} =17^{2} \\ 64 + x^{2} = 289 \\\\x^{2} = 289 - 64\\x^{2} = 225\\x = 15

andreyandreev [35.5K]

3x−2y=12;−3x+8y=−6

Step: Solve3x−2y=12for x:

3x−2y=12

3x−2y+2y=12+2y(Add 2y to both sides)

3x=2y+12
