Answer:

33 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of the student to their shadow and flagpole to its shadow are equal, then you can use the proportion

5.5/3 = x/18 and cross multiply to find x.

5.5 × 18 = 99

3 × x = 3x

3x/3 = x, 99/3 = 33.

x = 33.

a man has 25 coins in his pocket all of which are dimes and quarters. if the total value of his change is 430 cents, how many di
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:16 quarters and 3 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

430/25 (Quarters) = 17

25x16

(Because you can’t have 17 since 25x17=425 leaving no room for dimes.)

=400

Now 430-400=30

30 more cent is needed,

30/10(Dime value)

Is 3, so the answer is the man has 16 quarters and 3 dimes

Suppose that E and F are two events and that N (E and F) = 260 and N(E) = 630. What is P(F|E)​?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer: 0.4127

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability formula to find p(F/E):

p(F/E)= N(E n F) / N(E)

p(F/E)= 260 / 630

p(F/E) = 0.4127
