Answer:

the answer is 17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to use the pythagorean theorem.

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

for a is 15 and b is 8

15^{2} + 8^{2} = 289

289 = c\^{2}

\sqrt{289} = 17

therefore, the distance is 17 feet.

it rained nine days in the month of april .based on this ,what is the probaility that is does not rain on the first day of may?​
attashe74 [19]
<h3>Answer:     7/10</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

There are 30 days in April. Since it rained 9 of those days, the empirical probability of it raining in April is 9/30 = (3*3)/(3*10) = 3/10.

If we assume that the same conditions (ie weather patterns) hold for May, then the empirical probability of it raining in May is also 3/10. By "raining in May", I mean specifically raining on a certain day of that month.

The empirical probability of it not raining on the first of May is therefore...

1 - (probability it rains)

1 - (3/10)

(10/10) - (3/10)

(10-3)/10

7/10

We can think of it like if we had a 10 day period, and 3 of those days it rains while the remaining 7 it does not rain.

The estimated velocity v (in miles per hour) of a car at the end of a drag race is v=234\sqrt[3]{p/w} , where p is the horsepowe
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

299 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

v=\frac{234}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{p}{w}}}

v=\frac{234}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{1311}{2744}}}

v\approx299

Therefore, the velocity of the car at the end of a drag race is 299 miles per hour

16. Find the value of y. ​
devlian [24]

y + (2x -12) = 180 (since they are supplementary angles)

(2x-12) = 96 ( since they are alternate exterior angle)

2x = 96 + 12

2x = 108

x = 108/2

x = 54.

y+( 2x-12)=180

y+(2× 54 -12) = 180

y + (108-12) = 180

y + 96 = 180

y= 180-96

y = 84.
