Answer:

The length of the other leg will be = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use your Pythagoras theorem to determine the length of the other leg.

Hypotenuse^2=a^2+b^2

since you are given the length of the hypotenuse and one leg you can change the formula to:

b^2 = h^2 - a^2

b = √h^2-a^2

b=√5^2-3^2

b=√25-9

b=√16

b=4

Question One:

Probability that 2 of the 10 chargers will be defective =0.35

Number of ways of selecting 10 chargers from 20 chargers is 20C10

20C10 = 184756

Number of ways of selecting 10 chargers from 20 = 184756

Number of ways of selecting 2 defective chargers from 5 defective chargers = 5C2

5C2 = 10

Since 2 defective chargers have been chosen, there remains 8 to choose

Number of ways of selecting 8 good chargers from 15 remaining chargers = 15C8

Number of ways of selecting 8 good chargers from 15 remaining chargers = 6435

Probability that 2 of the 10 will be defective =

(10x6435)/184756

Probability that 2 of the 10 will be defective = 64350/184756

Probability that 2 of the 10 chargers will be defective =0.35
