Answer:

x = 5

Common denominator of 3/x+1 to 1/2

If the numerator is 3 times, then so is the denominator in a proportion.

3/1=x+1/2

x+1 must equal 6 for the proportion to be equal to 1/2.

6-1=5, so x is 5.

Answer: 0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The lock has 3 dials, each with the number 0 through 9.

The first place can be filled in 10 ways and the probability of selecting number '4' out of the 10 is $\frac{1}{10}$

Similarly for selecting '3' and '9' is also $\frac{1}{10}$

Therefore the probability of getting a combination of 4-3-9 is

$\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{10}\times \dfrac{1}{10}\times\dfrac{1}{10}\\\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{1000}\\\\\Rightarrow P=0.001$

Question 4

lyudmila [28]

Answer: The measure of a central angle is twice as big as the measure of an inscribed angle IF they intercept the same arc on a circle

Step-by-step explanation: See photo. A central angle’s vertex is at the center of the circle. The measure of a central angle is equal to the measure of the included arc. An inscribed angle’s vertex lies on the circle. The measure of an inscribed angle is equal to half the measure of the included arc. Therefore the measure of the central angle is double the measure of the inscribed angle that intercept the same arc on a circle
