Answer:
9.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the diagram attached. Using the similarity theorem of triangles
AC/AD = FH/EH
Given
AC = 24
AD = 35
FH = x
EH = 14
Substitute into the formula
24/35 = x/14
Cross multiply
35×x = 24×14
35x = 336
x = 336/35
x = 9.6
Hence the value of x is 9.6
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of falling NOT in the shaded region is "area of white region" <em>divided by</em> "area of whole rectangle (big one)".
<u>Area of whole rectangle:</u>
Area of rectangle = length * width = 10 * 5 = 50
<u>Area of White Region:</u>
First, area of shaded region = length * width = 4 * 2 = 8
Now,
Area of white region = area of whole rectangle - area of shaded rectangle
Area of white region = 50 - 8 = 42
Hence, probability is
0.84 = 84%
Answer choice D is right.
