Answer:
C. 3.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find expected value, which is essentially the value that we expect to get based on the amount of each "thing" at hand.
Here, we have 4 multiple-choice questions worth 3 points each and 2 true/false questions worth 1 point each. Each multiple-choice question has 5 possible answers, so the probability that you get that multiple-choice question correct is 1/5. Similarly, each true/false question has 2 possible answers, so the probability that you get that question right is 1/2.
Expected value, denoted by E(x), has the formula:
E(x) = ∑ xp(x), where x is the number of points you get per problem here and p(x) is the probability of getting the problem correct
E(x) = 4 * 3 * (1/5) + 2 * 1 * (1/2) = 12/5 + 1 = 17/5 = 3.4.
The answer is thus C.
Considering the area of the right triangle, it is found that Salome used a scale factor of 1/2 to go from triangle R to triangle T.
<h3>What is the area of a right triangle?</h3>
The area of a right triangle is given by half the multiplication of the lengths of it's sides.
In this figure, we have that the sides have lengths of 4 and 5 units, hence the area is given by:
A = 0.5 x 4 x 5 = 10 square units.
The area is one fourth of the area of triangle R. Since we are dealing with an area, that works in squared units, the scale factor is given by:
S = sqrt(1/4) = 1/2.
Hence Salome used a scale factor of 1/2 to go from triangle R to triangle T.

Answer:
48in sq
Step-by-step explanation:
8*12/2=8*6=48
You would multiply 2 1/2 and 3 3/4, which would give you 9.375 or as a mixed number 9 7/8
