Snezhnost [94]2 years ago

The probability that Stephen  randomly selects a sugar cookie from the bag  and eats it, then randomly selects a peanut  butter cookie is 3/58 (or) 0.052

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The bag of cookies contain 9 chocolate chip cookies, 7 peanut butter

cookies, 6 sugar cookies and 7 oatmeal cookies.

Therefore, the total number of cookies in the bag = 9+7+6+7 = 29 cookies.

It is given that, Stephen  randomly selects a sugar cookie from the bag and eats it.

The probability to select a sugar cookie = No.of sugar cookies / total

⇒ 6/29

After that, he randomly selects a peanut  butter cookie. We know that the bag now contains 1 cookie less than the total cookies because Stephen ate one sugar cookie.

Therefore, the total number of cookies in the bag = 28 cookies.

Probability to select a peanut butter cookie = No.of peanut cookies / total

⇒ 7/28

⇒ 1/4

The total probability = P(sugar cookie) × P(peanut cookie)

⇒ (6/29) × (1/4)

⇒ 6/116

⇒ 3/58 (or) 0.052

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

doubles every hour

if x = hours

2^x

2^x --> 2⁶ = 64

2^x = 1024

1024 = 2^10 ---> x=10

Calculate the area of the following figure. All measurements are in centimetres. Give answer to correct two decimal places.
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape above is a composite shape having two different shapes like rectangle and semi- circle

Area of rectangle=Length × Breadth

Area of semi circle=1/2πr^2

To find the area of the rectangle naw

Length of the rectangle=6.6

Width of the rectangle=4

A=6.6×4

A=26cm^2

Area of semi-circle=1/2

Diameter of the shape =4cm

Radius=2cm

A=1/2×3.14×2cm x2cm

A=6.28cm^2

Area of the shape=26+6.28cm^2

Area=32.28 to 2 dp

<h3>Answer:</h3>

A) Isosceles

E) Obtuse

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Ways to Define a Triangle

Triangles can be defined in two ways: by angles and by sides. Equilateral, isosceles, and scalene are based on side length. Acute, right, and obtuse are based on angle measurements. Triangle may only fall under one category for side length and one for angle measure (2 categories total).

Side Length

First, let's define equilateral, isosceles, and scalene.

  • Equilateral - All 3 sides of the triangle are congruent (equilateral are always acute angles).
  • Isosceles - 2 of the sides are congruent.
  • Scalene - There are no congruent sides; each side has a different length.

The triangle above has 2 congruent sides as shown by the tick marks on the left and right sides. This means the triangle is isosceles.

Angle Measurements

Now, let's define acute, right, and obtuse.

  • Acute - All 3 angles are less than 90 degrees; all angles are acute.
  • Right - 1 of the angles is exactly 90 degrees; it has a right angle.
  • Obtuse - 1 of the angles is greater than 90 degrees; there is an obtuse angle.

The largest angle in the triangle is 98 degrees, which is obtuse. This means that the triangle is obtuse.
