The answer is 25 chicks

Reasoning:

This is a simple problem.
Consider you are the only chick that matters, and construct a table to say whether YOU get pecked. Your chance of being pecked comes down to only 4 outcomes. (1) YES - pecked twice. (2) YES - pecked from left wing only. (3) YES - pecked from right wing only. (4) NO - unpecked.
The table has 4 elements, all of equal probability, 1 of which is unpecked. YOU are therefore pecked 3:1 ratio or 3:4 opportunities  75% of the time. For convenience, this needs to be conducted for 100 trials of YOU, and the answer is that 25 times YOU will NOT be pecked. The circular nature of the 100 chicks says that YOU are not unique, and your experience is the same as the others, so we extrapolate your experience of 100 trials to a single trial of 100 chicks just like YOU. 25 unpecked chicks, 50 get pecked once, 25 get double pecks.

This is the same table constructed for 100 women having two children and asking how many have no girls.

You have 400 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular plot. Find the length and width of the plot that will maximize the area. W
3241004551 [841]
Well, we can denote L and W for the length and width respectively. Lets say the A is the area, we have: 1. A=(L × W) as well as 2. 2(L+W)=400. We rearrange the second equation to get 3. W=200-L. From this, we can see that 0<L<200. Substitute the third equation into the first to get A=(200L-L²). put this formula into the scientific calculator and you will find a parabola with a maximum. That would be the maximum area of the enclosed area. Alternatively, we can say that L is between 0 and 200 when the area equals 0. (The graph you find will be  area against length). As the maximum is generally found halfway, we substitute 100 into the equation and we end up with 10000.

Hope this helps.

Which of the following theorems verifies that XYZ - UWV
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

I think it's AA because the sum of a triangle is 180 and if you subtract the right angle and the other angle from 180 it gives you the same angle in the other triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

180-(90+70)=20 The other angle in the first triangle

180-(90+20)=70 The other angle in the second triangle

These angles show that they're similar

Help me and thank you!!!
Fiesta28 [93]

p - 11 = -5

p = -5 + 11

p = 6

- 5 = m + 11

-5 - 11 = m

m = -16

y + 6 = -8

y = -6 -8

y = -14
