Answer:
5.625
Step-by-step explanation:
So first do 112 / 360
Simplify it = 28 / 90 = 14 / 45
So 1.75 is 14 / 45 of the circumference.
The whole circumference is 1.75 * (45 / 14)
So the answer is 45 / 8 = 5.625
Answer:
¼
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of having a boy is ½ and that of a girl is ½.
Probability of boy, boy is (pb*pb) and given pb to be ½ then we can prove the point as follows
For these two children
The options are as follows
1 boy(first) and 1 girl
2 boys
2 girls
1 girl( first) and 1 boy
These are four possible options and the option for two boys is 1 out of the four.
The probability of 2 boys is ½*½=¼

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways to work a problem like this. You have probably been taught to write equations for each of the payment amounts as a function of time, then equate those values to solve for the time that makes them equal.
at dealer 1, the total amount paid (y) will be a function of months (x):
y = 2500 +150x
at dealer 2, the corresponding equation is ...
y = 3000 +125x
These are equal when ...
y = y
2500 +150x = 3000 +125x
25x = 500 . . . . . . . . . subtract 125x +2500 from both sides
x = 500/25 = 20
The total paid will be the same after 20 months.
That amount is ...
y = 2500 +150(20) = 5500
$5500 will be paid to either dealer after 20 months.

The other way to work the problem is to "cut to the chase". The difference in down payment is made up at the rate of difference in monthly payments. So The number of monthly payments (x) required to equal the difference in down payments is ...
25x = 500 . . . . . . . . . you may recognize this equation from above
x = 500/25 = 20
We can check this by seeing if Pythagorean's theorem applies. The longest side is the hypotenuse, so let's see if this is true:


This is, indeed correct, thus, this
