<h2>Answer:</h2>

The probability that a code starts with the number 7 is:

                          1/10

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

There are total 10 digits:

0   1   2    3    4   5   6   7   8   9

Also, the total number of codes that are possible using these digits are:

                            1000

( Since there are 10 choices for first place, 10 for second and 10 for third as well

Hence, total possibilities are: 10×10×10=1000 )

Also, if the first place of the code is fixed with number 7.

So, we need to chose the digits for second and third place.

Hence, total codes whose first digit is 7 are:

                      100

( Since the choice for first place is fixed and for second and third place we have 10 choices i.e. total such cases are: 1×10×10=100   )

Hence, the probability is calculated as:

            Probability=100/1000

                               =1/10

The area of a rectangular swimming pool is 360 square feet. If the length of the swimming pool is 9 feet more than its width, fi
Inessa [10]

Answer:

l = 24ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A = lw

360 = (x + 9)(x)

360 = x^2 + 9x

0 = x^2 + 9x - 360

0 = (x + 24)(x - 15)

x ≠ -24 (length cannot be negative)

x = 15

l = 15 + 9

l = 24ft

Point T is on line segment \overline{SU} SU . Given ST=12ST=12 and TU=3,TU=3, determine the length \overline{SU}. SU
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

SU = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Point T is on line segment SU. So,

SU = ST + TU

Putting all the values, we get :

SU = 12 + 3

SU = 15

Hence, the length of SU is 15 units.
