Answer: 12.65 ft

Pythagorean theorem is a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

So, a^{2} + 3^{2} = 13^{2}

169 - 9 = 160

\sqrt{160} is 12.65.

Hope it helps.

A car company builds two versions of one of its models-a sedan and a station wagon. The ratio of sedans to station wagons is 11:
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Number of sedans on the ship = 99

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Ratio of sedans to station wagons = 11 : 2

Number of station wagons count by Tom = 18

Number of sedans = x

Ratio of sedans to station wagons = x : 18

The relationship is directly proportional;

11 : 2 :: x : 18

Product of mean = Product of extreme

2x = 11*18

2x = 198

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{198}{2}\\x=99

Hence,

Number of sedans on the ship = 99

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

1/3 or 33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the Captain has a probability of 1/2 of hitting the pirate ship, then he has a probability of 1/2 of missing the pirate ship.

As for the pirate, if he has a probability of 1/3 of hitting the Captain's ship, then he has a probability of 2/3 of missing the pirate ship.

The probability that both miss after firing at the same time is:

P=\frac{1}{2}*\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2}{6}\\P=\frac{1}{3}

The probability of both missing is 1/3 or 33.33%.
