ABC and DEF are similar

AB/AC = DE/DF

30/24 = 5/x

30x = 24 * 5

30x = 120

x = 4

The legs of an isosceles right triangle are 5 inches long. What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle to the nearest i

In-s [12.5K]

The legs are 5 inches long.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:
$5^2+5^2=c^2 \\
25+25=c^2 \\
50=c^2 \\
c=\sqrt{50} \\
c=\sqrt{25 \times 2} \\
c=5 \sqrt{2} \\
c \approx 7$

The length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is approximately 7 inches long.

The probability that an egg on a production line is cracked is 0.01. Two eggs are selected at random from the production line. F

musickatia [10]

Answer:

$P(X \geq 1)=1-P(X$

$P(X=0)=(2C0)(0.01)^0 (1-0.01)^{2-0}=0.9801$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.9801 = 0.0199$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "number of craked eggs", on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=2, p=0.01)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

And we want to find this probability:

$P(x \geq 1)=1-P(X$

And we can find the probability:

$P(X=0)=(2C0)(0.01)^0 (1-0.01)^{2-0}=0.9801$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.9801 = 0.0199$

There are 8 action, 3 comedy, and 5 drama DVDs on a shelf. Suppose three DVDs are selected at random from the shelf. Find each p

nordsb [41]

8 action, 3 comedy, 5 drama....total = 16 dvd's

P(2 action, then a comedy)...without replacement

8/16 * 7/15 * 3/14 = (8 * 7 * 3) / (16 * 15 * 14) = 168/3360 = 1/20

Please help and explain <br><br> question 12

il63 [147K]

The sunflower is 2.387 meters tall.

The question is asking: which rounding will result in the greatest value?

To see, we need to round 2.387 to meter, tenth meter, and hundredth meter.

Meter - 2 meters

Tenth meter - 2.4 meters

Hundredth meter - 2.39 meters

As you see, rounding to the tenth meter gives the greatest value of 2.4. Therefore, Bahir should use a decimal rounded to the tenth meter.
