Answer:

-9.33 ft per second

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this, you just have to divide -28 by 3. When doing this, it will give the change per second or for every 1 second.

-28/3 = -9.33

Therefore, the average change in the helicopter's altitude each second is -9.33 ft.

Two cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that one of the cards is red a

alukav5142 [94]

Total cards = 52
Total red cards = 26
Total black cards = 26

P(one red and one black) = P(red and then black)+ P(black and then red)
P(one red and one black) =(26/52)(26/51) + (26/52)(26/51)
P(one red and one black) = 26/51 (Answer A)

A triangle is graphed in the coordinate plane. The vertices of the triangle have coordinates (–3, 1), (1, 1), and (1, –2). What

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The perimeter of the triangle is $12\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

$A(-3,1),B(1,1),C(1,-2)$

we know that

The perimeter of triangle is equal to

$P=AB+BC+AC$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find the distance AB

$A(-3,1),B(1,1)$

substitute in the formula

$AB=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2}+(1+3)^{2}}$

$AB=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$AB=4\ units$

step 2

Find the distance BC

$B(1,1),C(1,-2)$

substitute in the formula

$BC=\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(1-1)^{2}}$

$BC=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$BC=3\ units$

step 3

Find the distance AC

$A(-3,1),C(1,-2)$

substitute in the formula

$AC=\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(1+3)^{2}}$

$AC=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$AC=5\ units$

step 4

Find the perimeter

$P=AB+BC+AC$

substitute the values

$P=4+3+5=12\ units$

In a game of checkers there are 12 red pieces and 12 black game pieces.Julio is setting up the board to begin playing. what is t

Bond [772]

Since there are equal numbers of pieces, the chances of Julio getting a red on the first pull is 12/24 or 1/2 (reduced)

However on the second pull there are only 11 reds (Julio pulled one out) out of 23 remaining pieces so the chances of pulling the second red are 11/23

Now multiply those possibilities:
1/2 x 11/23 and you will get 11/46 which is the probability of pulling two reds in a row. 11/46 is the answer.

What is the length of the hypotenuse? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

exis [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the length of the hypotenuse is 4 Km, it is probable that you are looking for the value of the cathetus a.

it is a right triangle and we use Pythagoras

a² = 4² - 2²

a² = 16 - 4

a² = 12

a = √12

a = 3.46 (round 3.5)
