Answer:

c. 0.3974

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

number of white balls, W = 17

number of red balls, R = 18

Total number of balls, T = 35

The number of ways the event will occur is given by

= P(2 whites) and P(2 reds)

= P(2whites) x P(2 reds)

= 17C2 x 18C2

= 136 x 153

= 20,808

The total number of possible outcome

= 35C4

= 52,360

The probability = 20,808 / 52,360

                          = 0.3974

The correct option is "C"

Explain how to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length of a right triangle.<br>​
tino4ka555 [31]

Pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

This means that the square of the length of the 2 legs of a right triangle added together = the square of the length of the hypotenuses or diagonal.

If you know 2 of the values in the 3 variables a,b,c what would you do to find the missing variable value?

I will not write the exact answers to this problem. I think you can figure how to write it out yourselves.

Find the distance between the points 5 , 3 and -6 , 3 .
just olya [345]
(5, 3) (-6, 3)
The slope is 0 Slope = m = (Y2<span> -Y</span>1<span>) </span>÷<span> (X</span>2<span> -X</span>1<span>) (Y2 -Y1)=0
SO, the distance is just the difference in the x values.
distance = 5 --6 = 11
