Answer:
13.3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply the Pythagorean Theorem:
hyp² = (2nd longest side)² + (shortest side)². Here the numbers are:
(24 cm)² = (20 cm)² + (shortest side)², or
576 - 400 = 176 = hyp²
Taking the square root of both sides, we get (shortest side) = 13.3 cm
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
Answer:
0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
4/5=0.8
0.8-0.5=0.3
Answer:
The purchase price is 71.4% of the sale price.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 45 / 63 = 0.714
2) 0.714 * 100 = 71.4%
I didn't see part B.
6 because 1 in 1/6 represents how many he took and the denominator in the other fractions gets smaller because it's less and less each time
