Answer:

6 7/12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

6 2/3 - 1/12 = ?

12 is least common denominator

6 2/3*(4/4) - 1/12 = ?

6 8/12 - 1/12 = ?

6 8/12 - 1/12 = 6 7/12

Explain how the distance formula can prove Pythagoras' Theorem. In your
Paul [167]

Answer:

Given a triangle ABC, Pythagoras' Theorem shows that:

c^2=a^2+b^2

Thus,

c = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}

The distance formula, gives an equivalent expression based on two points at the end of the hypotenuse for a triangle.

d^2 = (x_{2} -x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} -y_{1})^2

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2 +  (y_{2} -y_{1})^2 }

Therefore when given the hypotenuse with endpoints at

(x_{1}, y_{1})  and {(x_{2}, y_{2})

We know that the third point of the right triangle will be at

(x_{2}, y_{1})

and that the two side lengths will be defined by the absolute values of:

(x_{2} - x_{1}) = a

(y_{2} - y_{1}) = b

1) A family consisting of three persons—A, B, and C—goes to a medical clinic that always has a doctor at each of stations 1, 2,
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us record the station number 1, 2 or 3 for each family member A, B or C.

I am attaching a table containing total outcomes. Outcomes are presented along rows while the assigned station to each member is written along columns. For ease of understanding, 1 3 2 in the table should be interpreted as family member A being assigned to station 1, member B to station 3 and member C to station number 2, respectively.

From table it is clear that the total outcomes possible are 27.

We know that, probability can be defined as,

PROBABITILY = \frac{NUMBER\;OF\;DESIRED\;OUTCOMES}{TOTAL\;NUMBER\;OF\;OUTCOMES}

a) All Members Assigned to the Same Station.

Cases for all members being assigned to same station are as follows:

[1 1 1], [2 2 2], [3 3 3] (outcome number 1, 14 and 27 in the table).

Therefore,

PROBABILITY\;(Case\;a) = \frac{3}{27}\\\\PROBABILITY\;(Case\;a) = 0.111

b) At Most Two Members Assigned to the Same Station.

It means that maximum of 2 members can have the same station. Cases for this situation are as follows:

[1 1 2], [1 1 3], [1 2 1], [1 2 2], [1 3 1], [1 3 3], [2 1 1], [2 1 2], [2 2 1], [2 2 3], [2 3 2],

[2 3 3], [3 1 1], [3 1 3], [3 2 2], [3 2 3], [3 3 1], [3 3 2]

(outcome number 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 18, 19, 21, 23, 24, 25 and 26 in the table).

Therefore,

PROBABILITY\;(Case\;b) = \frac{18}{27}\\\\PROBABILITY\;(Case\;b) = 0.666

c) All Members Assigned to a Different Station.

For this scenario, we have the following results:

[1 2 3], [1 3 2], [2 1 3], [2 3 1], [3 1 2], [3 2 1] (outcome number 6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 22 in the table).

Therefore,

PROBABILITY\;(Case\;c) = \frac{6}{27}\\\\PROBABILITY\;(Case\;c) = 0.222
