In triangle ABC, we can draw a perpendicular line segment from vertex C to segment AB. The intersection of AB and the perpendicu

lar is called E. We know that BE is the shortest distance from B to and that is the shortest distance from A to CE because of the shortest distance theorem. Therefore, BC > BE and AC > AE. Next, add the inequalities: BC + AC > BE + AE. Then, BE + AE = BA because of the . Therefore, BC + AC > BA by substitution.

In 1000 sq. meter of land a farmer cultivated 765 kg of rice with the wastage of 23.5%.I) Find the weight of the wastage. II) Fi
slega [8]

Answer:

i. weight of wastage(kg) = 179.775 kg

ii. weight of rice cultivated = 765 kg - 179. 775 kg = 585.225 kg

percentage of rice cultivated = 100 - 23.5 = 76.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

A land of 1000 sq. meter  is used to cultivate 765 kg of rice with wastage of 23.5%.

i. The wastage in percentage is 23.5% but the weight of the wastage in weight is  23.5% of 765 kg

weight of wastage = 23.5/100 × 765

weight of wastage = 17977.5/100

weight of wastage(kg) = 179.775 kg

ii. weight and percentage of rice cultivated.

weight of rice cultivated = 765 kg - 179. 775 kg = 585.225 kg

percentage of rice cultivated = 100 - 23.5 = 76.5%

Rita is making a beaded bracelet. She has a collection of 160 blue beads, 80 gray beads, and 240 pink beads. What is the estimat
a_sh-v [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Rita is making a beaded bracelet. She has a collection of 160 blue beads, 80 gray beads, and 240 pink beads. We are to calculate the probability that Rita will need to pick atleast 5 beads before she picks a grey bead from her collection.

Prob for drawing atleast 5 beads before she picks a grey bead from her collection

= 1-Prob for drawing atleast one grey beed in the first 5 draws.

(Because these two are complementary events)

no of grey beeds drawn in first 5 trials is

Bi=(5,1/6)

Prob for drawing atleast one grey beed in the first 5 draws.

=1-Prob of no grey

Hence required prob=P(X=0 in first 5 draws)

= 0.4018

6th beeds onwards can be grey also.

Nearest answer is c)0.45

Linda read 1/5 of a book on Friday and 2/7 of the book on Saturday. On Sunday she read 5/9 of the remaining pages. What fraction
insens350 [35]
Here, you just want to solve it by finding a common denominator.
1/5+2/7, because she read 1/5 and 2/7 of the book on separate days. The common denominator is 35.
7/35+10/35
=17/35
So that's how much of the book she read before Saturday.
Now it says that on Sunday she read 5/9 of the remaining pages, meaning:
1-17/35 should give us our answer
35/35-17/35=18/35
But since it says she read 5/9 of the remaining pages, we need to multiply 18/35 by 5/9 to get what 5/9ths of 18/35 is.
(18/35)(5/9)=2/7
Therefore she read 2/7ths of the book on Sunday.
