Answer:

$\sqrt{2},-0.57$

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of any incidence can only be a rational number.

Porbability can never be less than zero. It is basically defined as the ratio of

chance of occurence of an event to the total possible ways of occurence of the event. So an event cannot occur and the probability can be zero but never negative.

$\sqrt{2}$ being a irrational number cannot be a possibkle vlue for probability.

Hence values which cannot be possible are $\sqrt{2},-0.57$ .

Weird math question.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

It is 4/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = 0.363636363636

Now as there are two digits repeating immediately after decimal point, we multiply above by 100 and get

100x = 36.363636363636

Now subtracting first equation from second we get

99x = 36

and hence

x = 36/ 99

= (9 × 4) / (9 × 11)

which then equals

= 4/11

a carton can hold 1000 unit cubes that measure 1 inch by 1 inch by 1 inch describe the dimensions of the card using the unit cub

labwork [276]

Since the carton can hold 1000 units of the cubes.

Each unit of cube = 1inch * 1inch *1inch = 1inch³

Total volume = 1000 * 1inch³ = 1000 inch³

To get the dimension: The carton would take the shape of a cube.

Let each side be x.

x*x*x = 1000

x³ = 1000 Take the cube root of both sides.

∛x³ = ∛1000

x = 10

The dimension of the carton is 10 inches by 10 inches by 10 inches

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

$19.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1: 8.50+4.25+4.25= 17.00 (price of the popcorn and drinks)

Equation 2: 17.00/7.89= 2.15 (how to find how much the tax is)

Solve: 17.00+2.15=19.15 (add the tax to how much the popcorn and drinks were)
