Answer:

A) 10/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the odds of the team winning are 1/11, the odds of not winning have to be 10/11 in order for it to add to 11/11.

A right isosceles triangle has an area of 65cm^2. What's the length of each leg to the nearest tenth of a cm.

Andreas93 [3]

Well, we know that the legs of this triangle are equal, and we know
that the area of any triangle is (1/2)(base)(height) .

Since this is a right triangle, we can set it down on one leg, and then
the other leg will be the height. Then ...

Area = (1/2) (base) (height)

= (1/2) (leg) (leg)

65 cm² = (1/2) (leg)²

Multiply each side by 2 : 130 cm² = (leg)²

Take the square root of each side: leg = √130 cm² = 11.402 cm

rounded to the nearest tenth: 11.4 cm

Solve for x 4^x-2=256

salantis [7]

We can do this problem using two ways....
Let me show you both methods.

<u>Method 1: "Without using logs"</u>

$4^{x-2}=256\\\\ 4^{x-2}=4^4\ \ \ \ \ |\because 4^4 \ $is the same as 256$

Now, since both sides of the equation have same base and they equal each other, then their exponent must be equal to each other. So, we equal their exponents.

After equaling the exponents, we get,
$x - 2 = 4 \\\\ x=4+2 \\\\ \boxed{x = 6} \Leftarrow $ This is your answer!!$

Now,
<u>Method 2: "Using Logs"</u>

$4^{x-2}=256 \\\\ ~~~~~~~\Downarrow ~~~~~~ is\ the\ same\ thing\ as\ saying \\\\$log\ _4\ 256 =x-2 \\\\ Now,\ using\ the\ log\ property\ log_AB= \frac{log_cA}{log_cB}, \ we \ get, \\\\ \frac{log_{10}256}{log_{10}4}=x-2 \\\\ 4=x-2 \\\\ 4+2=x\\\\ 6=x \\\\ \boxed{x=6} \Leftarrow $This is your answer$

<u>So, either way we get x= 6</u>
