Answer:

111 / 190

Step-by-step explanation:

Total biscuits = 20

Plain, P = 12

Chocolate, C = 5

Currant, K = 3

Assume without replacement :

Probability that biscuit are of the same type :

P(plain) :

12 / 20 * 11 / 19 = 132 / 380

P(chocolate) :

5/ 20 * 4 / 19 = 20/ 380

P(currant) :

3/20 * 2 /19 = 6 / 380

Therefore,

Probability that biscuit is of the same type :

P(plain) + P(chocolate) + P(currant)

132/380 + 20/380 + 6/380

158 / 380 = 79 / 190

Therefore, probability that biscuit aren't of the same type :

1 - P(biscuit is of same type)

1 - 79/190

(190 - 79) / 190

111 / 190

A shirt marked $320.00 was sold at a discount of 5%. What was the selling price?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

304

Step by step:

Using your calculator 5% of 320 is 16.

Since it was a discount, you subtract 16 since you're marking it down.

320-16=304

304 is your answer

How do I know? Well, there it takes 20+20+20+20+20 to equal a hundred. We can do this same math for this problem. 16 x 20 is 320

1.)Find the height of a rectangular prism if the surface area is 148 cm2, the width is 4 cm and the length is 5 cm.
Contact [7]
1) surface of a rectangular prism=2(length x width)+2(length x height)+2(width x height)

Therefore:
148 cm²=2(5 cm x 4 cm)+2(5 cm x h)+2(4 cm x h)=
148 cm²=40 cm²+10 cm h+8 cm h
18 cm h=148 cm²-40 cm²
18 cm h=108 cm²
h=108 cm² / 18 cm=6 cm.

answer: height=6 cm 

2)
Volume of a rectangular prism= length x width x height 
therefore:
34 cm³=(1.7 cm)(0.5 cm) h
0.85 cm² h=34 cm³
h=34 cm³/0.85 cm²
h=40 cm.

answer: height=40 cm

3)
volume of a cylinder: πr²h
therefore.
118.79 ft³=πr²(5 ft)
r=√(118.79 ft³/5π ft)≈2.75 ft

answer: radius=2.75 ft

4)
 
Surface area of the pyramid with square base=4(A side)+A base
A side=(1/2)(8ft)(12 ft)=48 ft²
A base=(8 ft)(8 ft)=64 ft²

surface area=4(48 ft²)+64 ft²=256 ft²

Answer: the surface area of this pyramid would be 256 ft².

5)
surface of a cone=πrs+πr²
therefore:
radius=diameter/2=6.2 ft/2=3.1 ft
63.3 ft²=π(3.1 ft) s+π(3.1 ft)²
3.1π ft s=33.109 ft²
s=33.109 ft² /3.1π ft
s≈3.4 ft

Answer: the slant height would be 3.4 ft.

6)
volume of a square pyramid=(area of base x heigth)/3
therefore:
area of base=(6 ft)(6 ft)=36 ft²
126.97 ft³=36 ft² h /3
h=126.97 ft³/12 ft²=10.58 ft

answer: the height would be 10.58 ft.

7)
volume of a cone =(base x height)/3
base of a cone=πr²
therefore: 
199.23 cm³=πr²(9 cm)/3
r=√(199.23 cm³ / 3π cm)≈4.6 cm

answer: the radius would be 4.6 cm.

Serhud [2]
Remember that the period of a sinusoidal function <span>is the vertical distance between the t-axis and one of the extreme points.</span> From the graph we can infer that the period of the function is 4.5.

Also, the amplitude is<span> the distance between two consecutive maximum or two consecutive minimum points. From the graph we can infer that the amplitude of the function is 0.05 seconds.

We can conclude that the correct answer is: 0.05 seconds; 4.5
