Envision this as a right triangle, with one leg of 12 miles, and the other 16 miles. Solve using the Pythagorean Theorem a²+b²=c²:

12²+16²=c²
400 = c²
20=c...they live at least 20 miles from each other.

Suppose that 5% of athletes at a certain university are using steroids or other
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

There is a 8.11% of any randomly selected athlete to test positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

To make it easier, let's assume there are 100 athletes

5/100 have it

3/95 do not have it, but will test positive

1% of the 5 athletes who are using PEDs = 0.05%

This means that 4.95/100 will test positive

3/95 = 3.16%

(rounded, if you need a more precise answer, it's 3.1578947368421053)

3.16% + 4.95% = 8.11%

How should I answer this and are the answers correct
Ratling [72]

Step-by-step explanation:

Count the number of x's in each column.

There are 6 lots with 1/6 acre.

There are 3 lots with 1/3 acre.

There are 6 lots with 1/2 acre.

So the total area is:

A = 6(1/6) + 3(1/3) + 6(1/2)

A = 1 + 1 + 3

A = 5

The builder bought a total of 5 acres.

What is 350 enlarged by 20% equal to?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

420

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to convert 20% to decimal form. 20%=20/100=0.2. Now, you can multiply this by 350 to get 70. Adding this to the original value of 350, you get 350+70=420. Hope this helps!
