Step-by-step explanation:

the probability will be amount of green marbles over total amount of marbles

if there are 2 green marbles, and 10 total the probability is 2/10, or 20%

Chevy has some yarn that he wants to use to make hats and scarves. Each hat uses 0.20.20, point, 2 kilograms of yarn and each sc

Rashid [163]

Answer:

The system of equation that represent this situations are;

$\left \{ {{h+s=15} \atop {0.2h+0.1s=2}} \right.$

Also 5 hats and 10 scarves can be prepared from 2 kg of yarn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of hat Chevy makes be h.

Also Let number of scarves Chevy makes be s.

Given:

Total Amount of yarns = 2 kg

Total number of items = 15

Since Items need to make are hat and scarves.

Hence the equation can be represented as;

$h+s=15 \ \ \ \ equation \ 1$

Again Given:

Each hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn.

each scarf uses 0.1 kilograms of yarn.

Hence the equation can be represented as;

$0.2h+0.1s=2 \ \ \ \ \ equation \ 2$

Hence the system of equation that represent this situations are;

$\left \{ {{h+s=15} \atop {0.2h+0.1s=2}} \right.$

Now Solving these to find number of hats and number of scarves.

Multiplying equation 2 with 10 we get;

$10(0.2h+0.1s)=2\times 10\\10\times0.2h+10\times0.1s=20\\2h+s =20 \ \ \ \ \ equation \ 3$

Now Subtracting equation 1 from equation 3 we get;

$(2h+s)- (h+s) =20-15\\2h+s-h-s=5\\h= 5$

Now Substituting the value of h in equation 1 we get;

$h+s= 15\\5+s =15\\s=15-5\\s=10$

Hence 5 hats and 10 scarves can be prepared from 2 kg of yarn.

Plz help! Don’t understand this question

solniwko [45]

Answer:

11.91

Step-by-step explanation:

The question says there is a new line that connects V and T. If this line is drawn, the diagram would have a right-angle triangle. This triangle is called TUV.

In triangle TUV, the side length created by the points VT is the hypotenuse.

For right-angle triangles, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find any side.

It's in the format side² + side² = hypotenuse².

To use the formula, you need to know the length of the other two sides. The length of these sides, because they are exactly horizontal or vertical, is found by subtracting the smaller coordinate from the other (that is not the same).

The lengths of other sides:

VU:

-3 is the same. The length is 3.5 - (-5.75) = 9.25

UT:

-5.75 is the same. The length is 4.5 - (-3) = 7.5

Substitute the lengths into the Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

9.25² + 7.5² = c² Simplify

141.8125 = c² Find the square root of both sides to isolate c

c = 11.91 Final answer, length of VT

What is two numbers that when added equal 25 but when multiplied equal negative 200

Law Incorporation [45]

Well lets look at it lets find multiples that equal 200 when multiplied first to get rid of extra work

so i just took a couple of guesses and lined them up
i got really close when i did this one
-200/30 = -6.666666667
30 + 6.666666667 = 23.33333333
see not quite there almost 25 but not far enough
so ill try to move the numbers around little by little.
-200/29.5 = -6.779661017
29.5 + -6.779661017 = 22.72033898
okay honestly after i finished this trial i wasn't sure if i was thinking straight because i completely didnt think about which way i needed to go so now i pinched myself and this time we might head the right way lol
-200/30.5 = -6.557377049
30.5 + -6.557377049 = 23.94262295
so obviously we need to move up alittle more
-200/31 = -6.451612903
31 + -6.451612903 = 24.5483871
HEY LOOK WE ARE ALMOST THERE!! lets try some more;)
-200/31.5 = -6.349206349
31.5 + -6.349206349 = 25.15079365
see we are at 25! but lets try to get rid of as many numbers behind it as possible.
-200/31.4 = -6.369426752
31.4 + -6.369426752 = 25.03057325
getting closer...
-200/31.39 = -6.371455878
31.39 + -6.371455878 = 25.01854412
what does this mean? this means we can go lower... sooo here we go
-200/31.38 = -6.373486297
31.38 + -6.373486297 = 25.0065137
i guess we can try lower..
-200/31.37 = -6.375518011
31.37 + -6.375518011 = 24.99448199
wait! before you leave! try 31.379
-200/31.379 = -6.37368941
31.379 + <span>-6.37368941 = 25.00531059
</span>okay so yes, i am taking the very long way but good comes to those with patience:D lets try making the third place after the decimal a little bit lower
-200/31.377 = -6.374095675
31.377 + -6.374095675 = 25.00290432
yes we can take it lower so lets make it the best answer
-200/31.376 = -6.374298827
31.376 + <span>-6.374298827 = 25.00170117
</span>i pray this be over soon^ lets try again....
-200/31.375 = -6.374501992
31.375 + -<span>6.374501992 = 25.00049801
</span>okay im a perfectionist... sooo lets go lower
-200/31.374 = -6.37470517
31.374 + <span>-6.37470517 = 24.99929483
</span>okay so we went to low on the third place. and of course i am moving to the fourth place...
-200/31.3749 = -6.374522309
31.3749 + <span>-6.374522309 = 25.00037769
</span>okay we can move lower on that place....
-200/31.3748 = -6.374542627
31.3748 + <span>-6.374542627 = 25.00025737
</span>lets try to move this along faster...
-200/31.3746 = -6.374583262
31.3746 +<span> -6.374583262 = 25.00001674
</span>every number counts literally so moving lower
-200/31.3744 = -6374623897
31.3744 + <span>-6374623897 = 24.9997761
we gotta put a 9 on our fifth place from our decimal sooo here we go again
-200/31.37449 = -6.374605611
31.37449 + </span><span>-6.374605611 = 24.9998439
<span>OMG DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT THIS MEANS!!?!?!
</span>okay that means our answer was two trials ago solved
in other words our two numbers arreee
</span><span> 31.3746
</span><span>-6.374583262
</span>hallelujah we are finished and if this is wrong i will pull my hair out.
