Answer: 5.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation there is no replacement so we have to mulitply the probablilty of the first,second, and third marble being green. First marble has a 8/19 probablilty of being selected because 19 total marbles in the bag and 8 green marbles. the next marble will have a 7/18 probabililty because now only 18 marble are in the bag and we are assuming we selected a green marble on our first draw. Same thing with the last green marble it would be 6/17 because there would be 17 marbles in the bag and 6 green ones left assuming we got the first 2

so 8/19*7/18*6/17=

56/969=

andrezito [222]

The population of California = 2.52 \times 10^7 people.

Land area of California = 4.05 \times 10^5km^2.

We have to determine the average number of people per square kilometer.

Average number of people per square kilometer =

Land area of California \div Population of California

= 4.05 \times 10^5 \div 2.52 \times 10^7

= 1.6 \times 10^{-2}

Therefore, the average number of people per square kilometer is  1.6 \times 10^{-2}.

I need help with this question please.​
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

30 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotational symmetry is defined as a figure having the same appearance when rotated by a certain angle.

The wheel has 12 "handles." We can use these as reference points when rotating the image.

We also know that we can rotate by a total of 360 degrees. We can say that:

360/12 = 30 degrees.

Each time you rotate the wheel by 30 degrees, the image will end up on another handle (looks the same). This shows rotational symmetry.

I hope this helps!

How much grain can this container hold?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

953.78 in^3 of grain.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder = π r^2 h.

For this cylinder r =  radius of the base = 9/2

= 4.5 in  and the height h = 15 in

So the volume is 3.14 * 4.5^2 * 15

= 953.78 in^3.
