Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In other words, carl's losing odds are 7 : 5, so his winning odds will be 5 : 7
So if they play (7+5=12) 12 times, carl will win 5 times.
To find probability that carl will beat his friend, we take the probability of Carl winning. Simple!
The probability is 5/ 12
I believe the answer is c
Let x be the distance of the additional water stations from the starting line.
We want on that is 1.5 miles behind the 8-mile water station, and one that is 1.5 miles ahead. The following absolute value function describes x:
|x-1.5| = 8
Two numbers comply: x= 9.5 and 6.5.
The additional water stations will be 6.5 and 9.5 miles from the starting line.
Answer:
1,737.3 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume the length of the bridge consists of 2 right triangles as shown in the diagram. Use pythagorean theorem to find the other missing leg of each right triangle.
Let the missing leg for each triangle be x and y respectively.
Length of bridge = x + y
✔️x = √(1115² - 860²) = √503,625
x ≈ 709.7 (nearest tenth)
✔️y = √(1340² - 860²)
y ≈ 1,027.6 (nearest tenth)
✔️ Length of bridge = 709.7 + 1,027.6 = 1,737.3 ft
