Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the attached figure:

As the triangle ABC is inscribed inside the circle and AB is the diameter of the circle => ABC is the right triangle

So that ∡ACB = 90°

As ACB is the right triangle, according to the Pythagoras theorem, we have the formula as following:

    AC^{2} +BC^{2} =AB^{2}

=> BC^{2}  = AB^{2} -AC^{2} = 20^{2} -16^{2} = 400-256= 144 = 12^{2}

=> BC = 12

As O is the center of the circle

=> OA = 1/2 x AB = 1/2 x 20 = 10

Inside the triangle ABC, as OD is parallel with BC

=> AOD and ABC are similar triangles

=> \frac{OD}{BC} =\frac{AO}{AB}

=> \frac{x}{12}=\frac{10}{20}  =\frac{1}{2}

=> x = 1/2 x 12 = 6

So x = 6

Julie went to visit her aunt and uncle for the weekend. She took the following clothes: two pairs of slacks – one brown, one bla
kaheart [24]

Answer: 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we have is:

Slacks: one brown, one black.

Sweaters: one tan, one red, one white.

Shirts: one white, one gray.

If the clothes are selected at random, then the probability that Julie will wear brown slacks is equal to the number of brown slacks, divided the total number of slacks.

We have 1 brown slack and 2 slacks in total, so the probability is:

p1 = 1/2 = 0.5

We do the same for the white shirt, we have 2 shirts and one is white, so the probability is:

p2 = 1/2 = 0.5

And we do not have any condition in the sweater, so we can ignore that selection.

Then the probability of both events happening at the same time (that Julie will wear brown slacks and a white shirt) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities: P = p1*p2 = 0.5*0.5 = 0.25

How many crores are there in 20 million​
olga55 [171]

Answer:

20 million = 2 crore

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we will show you how to convert 20 million to crores (twenty million in crores). This may be useful if you for example want to convert 20 million rupees to crore rupees or 20 million dollars to crore dollars.

In some parts of the world like the United States, large numbers are separated with commas in three-digit-interval format like this:

...,BBB,MMM,TTT,HHH

BBB = billions

MMM = millions

TTT = thousands

HHH = hundreds

In certain parts of Asia, the format is a little different. From right to left, it starts out with three digits followed by a comma like the US, but after that, it is in intervals of two digits like this:

..,AA,CC,LL,TT,HHH

AA = arabs

CC = crores

LL = lakhs

TT = thousands

HHH = hundreds

Below we have displayed 20 million with the two number systems, based on the information above:

MM,TTT,HHH

20,000,000

=

C,LL,TT,HHH

2,00,00,000

When you match up 20 million with the C,LL,TT,HHH format above, you can see what 20 million is in crores. The answer to 20 million in crores is as follows:

20 million

= 2 crore
