Answer:

14.3 feet.

14.3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem forms a right triangle in which:

The Vertical Leg of the Right Triangle = 3 feet

The Horizontal Leg of the Right Triangle =14 feet

We are to determine the length of the broken part of the tree. This is the Hypotenuse of the Right Triangle,

Using Pythagoras Theorem

Hypotenuse^2=Opposite^2+Adjacent^2\\Hypotenuse^2=14^2+3^2\\Hypotenuse^2=205\\Hypotenuse=\sqrt{205}\\Hypotenuse=14.32\\ \approx 14.3 feet $(to the nearest tenth of a foot).\\Therefore, the lenght of the broken part of the tree to the nearest tenth of a foot is 14.3 feet.

guajiro [1.7K]

hurdler falled down before the 353535 steps of 100100100 race.

we need to find where she fell down

so we need subtract 353535 from 100100100

100100100-353535=99746565

she falled at 99746565 step before completing the race

at a store, the probability that a customer buys socks is 0.15. the probability that a customer buys socks given that the custom
leva [86]

Answer: Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

First we assign a name to the events:

Event S: a customer buys socks

Event H: a customer buys shoes.

We know that :

P (S) = 0.15

We also know that the probability of S given that H occurs is:

P(S|H) =\frac{P(S\ and\ H)}{P(H)}=0.20

If two events S and H are independent then:

P (S) * P (H) = P (S\ and\ H)

This mean that if two events S and H are independent then:

P(S|H) =\frac{P(S)*P(H))}{P(H)}

P(S|H) =P(S)

We know that:

P(S|H) =0.20  and P (S) = 0.15

0.20\neq 0.15

This means that S and H events are dependent.

The answer is the option B
