andre [41]
The correct answer is .05

To solve, find the decimal of each of the probabilities: 

Flipping Tails:  1/2 ----> .5

Picking 3:   1/10-----> .10

Now, multiply them together: 

.5 x .10 = .05

20 points!! I need help
zaharov [31]

Answer:

11.33 * 16.33 meters to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pool be x meters, then the length is x+5 meters.

The length of whole area = x + 5 + 2(3)  = x + 11 meters and the width is

x + 2(3) = x + 6 meters.

So we have the equation (x + 6)(x + 11) = 387.

x^2 + 17x + 66 = 387

x^2 + 17x - 321 = 0

x =  [-17 +/- sqrt (17^2 - 4*1*-321)] / 2

x = 11.33 meters

So the width is 11.3 m and the length is 16.33 meters.

A pet shop sells guinea pigs and goldfish.
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that a pet shop sells guinea pigs and goldfish and that the ratio of guinea pigs to goldfish is 20:28.

a) Give this ratio in its simplest form.

The ratio of guinea pigs to goldfish is 20:28. The highest common factor to 20 and 28 is 4. Therefore 20 = 4 × 5 and 28 = 4 × 7. So, the ratio in its simplest form will be 5:7.

b. The shop has a total of 120 guinea pigs and fish. Work out the number of guinea pigs the shop has.

The ratio of guinea pig and goldfish is 5:7. If the shop has a total of 120 guinea pigs and fish, the number of guinea pigs the shop has will be:

= 5/12 × 120

= 5 × 10

= 50 guinea pigs
