The tree diagram is constructed and attached below in the image.
First we have to make a choice out of 3 subjects, so the probability of choosing art as the first subject is 1/3.
Once we have chosen art as the first subject, we have two choices. So the probability of choosing each option now is 1/2. Thus, the probability of choosing math, science is 1/2.
The probability of choosing the projects in order of art, math, science = 1/3 x 1/2 = 1/6
Therefore, the probability that the projects are in order of art, math, science is 1/6 (one over 6). So first option gives the correct answer.
Answer:
(C) 2√15
Step-by-step explanation:
Recognize that all the triangles are right triangles, so are similar to each other. In these similar triangles, the ratio of the short side to the long side is the same for all.
... CB/CA = CT/CB
... CB² = CA·CT = 10·6 = 60 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by CA·CB; substitute values
... CB = √60 = 2√15 . . . . . . . take the square root; simplify

<em>Comment on this solution</em>
The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle (CB in this case) divides the hypotenuse into lengths such that the altitude is their geometric mean. That is ...
... CB = √(AC·CT) . . . . as above
This is true for any right triangle — another fact of geometry to put in your list of geometry facts.
As stated the area of the circle is 85π ft2. The area of the sector BAC is a portion of this full circle area. the sector is made of 2 radii and arc that has rotated by 36°.
the magnitude of the central angle in the circle is 360°
Area for 360° central angle - 85π ft2
then the area for 1° = 85π ft2/360°
the area of 36° sector = 85π ft2/360° x 36°
= 8.5π ft2
System A has ONE real solution
System B has NO real solutions
System C has ONE real solution
Split the boxes into sections and then find the math that way.
