Hi!

So according to the Pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Ok, so let's just plug those numbers in:

18^2 + 24 ^ 2 = c^2

324 + 576 = c^2

900 = c^2

$\sqrt{900}$ = c

$\sqrt{900}$ = 30

x = 30

You could also use Pythagorean triples, and there are Pythagorean triples for this which is 3:4:5; and since it's a ratio, we can write it as 3x:4x:5x. Then, according to a and b, x would equal 6, so then we plug in x:

3(6):4(6):5(6)

and you get:

18:24:30

Let me know if you have any questions.

Answer:

the probability is 2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the coins are randomly selected, the probability of pulling a dime first is the number of dimes (4) divided by the total number of coins (10).

p(dime first) = 4/10 = 2/5

Then, having drawn a dime, there are 9 coins left, of which 5 are nickels. The probability of randomly choosing a nickel is 5/9.

The joint probability of these two events occurring sequentially is the product of their probabilities:

p(dime then nickel) = (2/5)×(5/9) = 2/9

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

You can go at this another way. You can list all the pairs of coins that can be drawn. There are 90 of them: 10 first coins and, for each of those, 9 coins that can be chosen second. Of these 90 possibilities, there are 4 dimes that can be chosen first, and 5 nickels that can be chosen second, for a total of 20 possible dime-nickel choices out of the 90 total possible outcomes.

p(dime/nickel) = 20/90 = 2/9
