AABC is similar to AAXY by a ratio of 4:3. If BC = 24, what is the length of XY?

Answer:

OXY=18

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of AABC to AAXY is 4:3 so the lengths will be in that ratio too. The ratio of BC:XY is 4:3. BC is 24 so 24:XY is 4:3. You need to divide 24 by 6 to get 4 so multiply 3 by 6 to get the answer 18.

A person flipped a coin 100 times and obtained 73 heads. Can the person conclude that the coin was unbalanced?
Kitty [74]

They can not, there are only 2 sides and they probably flipped it different ways. They got 'lucky'.

An object is dropped off a building that us 144 feet tall. After how many seconds does the object hit the ground? (s= 16t^2)
denis23 [38]
Given 
s=16t^2 
where
s=distance in feet travelled (downwards) since airborne with zero vertical velocity and zero air-resistance
t=time in seconds after release

Here we're given
s=144 feet
=>
s=144=16t^2 
=> 
t^2=144/16=9
so
t=3
Ans. after 3 seconds, the object hits the ground 144 ft. below.

It is known that 5% of the population over the age of 30 in a city is a university graduate. Among the 100 people chosen randoml
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

A) 1/3200000

B) 19/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage population of graduates = 5

Proportion of graduates from 100 random samples = percentage × number of samples

Proportion of graduates = 0.05 × 100 = 5

Probability of having 5 graduates among the 100 random samples:

P(1 graduate) = possible outcome / total required outcome

P(1 graduate) = (5 / 100) = 1/20

P(5 graduates) = (1/20)^5

P(5 graduates) = 1/3200000

Probability of never being a graduate = (1 - probability of being a graduate)

Probability of never being a graduate = ( 1 - (1/20)) = 19/20

I need help on this.
liraira [26]

If the triangles are similar, the proportion of the legs on the left to the legs on the right will be equal.  This proportion would look like:

\frac{2x+1}{3x}=\frac{10}{14}

(You needed to combine the orange segment and the yellow segment to find the total length of the large triangle).


Now, cross multiply and solve for x:

28x+14=30x

<em>*Subtract 28x from both sides to isolate the variable*</em>

14=2x

<em>*Divide both sides by 2*</em>

7=x


Hope this helps!!
