A fair spinner has 9 equal sections: 4 red, 3 blue and 2 green.
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

14/81

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting a green is number of green sections ÷ total number of sections = 2/4+3+2 = 2/9

Probability of not getting a green is = 1 - probability of getting a green = 1 - 2/9 = 7/9

Now we calculate the probability of not getting 2 consecutive greens. I.e probability of getting a green the first time and not getting it the second time= (2/9 × 7/9) = 14/81

The length of the longer leg of a right triangle is 4 inches more than twice the length of the shorter leg. the length of the hy
Serjik [45]

The Pythagorean's Theorem for our situation would look like this:

shortleg^2+longleg^2=hypotenuse^2

So let's call the short leg s, the long leg l and the hypotenuse h. It appears that all our measurements are based on the measurement of the short leg. The long leg is 4 more than twice the short leg, so that expression is l=2s+4; the hypotenuse measure is 6 more than twice the short leg, so that expression is h=2s+6. And the short leg is just s. Now we can rewrite our formula accordingly:

s^2+(2s+4)^2=(2s+6)^2

And of course we have to expand. Doing that will leave us with

s^2+4s^2+8s+8s+16=4s^2+12s+12s+36

Combining like terms we have

5s^2+16s+16=4s^2+24s+36

Our job now is to get everything on one side of the equals sign and solve for s

s^2-8s-20=0

That is now a second degree polynomial, a quadratic to be exact, and it can be factored several different ways. The easiest is to figure what 2 numbers add to be -8 and multiply to be -20. Those numbers would be 10 and -2. Since we are figuring out the length of the sides, AND we know that the two things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length, -2 is not an option. That means that the short side, s, measures 10. The longer side, 2s+4, measures 2(10)+4 which is 24, and the hypotenuse, 2s+6, measures 2(10)+6 which is 26. So there you go!

1. What is the formula for compound interest?
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

  1.   CI = P (1 + \frac{r}{100} )^ n - P

        CI = A - P

      Where P is Principal

      R is interest rate

      n is number of years

   2. a. Semi annually - four times in a year

       b. Monthly           -  two times in a year

       c.  annually          -  once in a year

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  Money is said to be lent at compound interest , when the interest has become due at certain fixed period say, one year, half year, etc.., is given not paid to money lender, but is added to sum lent . The amount thus obtained become principal for next month and this process repeat until last period .

i.e CI = Final period - Initial period

or CI = A - P

or CI = P(1+ \frac{r}{100}) ^n - P

2. (a) Semi annually

        A = P (1 + \frac{r}{4 * 100} )^ n × 4

   (b)  Monthly

       A = P (1 + \frac{r}{2 * 100} ) ^ n × 2

   

   (c)  Annually

       A = P (1 + \frac{r}{100} ) ^ n
