Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so you have 12/40. You're trying to simplify it, so you can divide it by 2 because the numerator and the denominator are even. Then you get 6/20. You can divide it by 2 again. You get 3/10. Since that can't be simplified unless you divide and want a decimal, thats the answer in simplest form.

Which scenario depicts two independent events?

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The girls' basketball team is playing against the boys' basketball team. The coach chooses a captain for the girls' team and then chooses a captain for the boys' team.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events are considered independent of each other when the probability that one event occurs doesn’t in any way affect the probability of the other event occurring.

An example is the probability of flipping a coin and rolling a die.

Choosing a captain for the male and female team won’t in any way affect the outcome of the match.

Which of the following points lies on the circle whose center is at the origin and whose radius is 13?

Alexxandr [17]

any point that is on the circle will have a distance of "radius" units, namely 13 units, since the radius is just that.

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ \stackrel{origin}{(\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})}\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{12})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{(-5-0)^2+(12-0)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-5)^2+12^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{25+144}\implies d=\sqrt{169}\implies d=13$
