divide distance by speed
equation: time = distance / speed
120/8.5 = 14.117 seconds
The answer to the question
Answer:
0.000298 = 0.0298% probability that the system will collapse
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of possible ways the system can fail:
2 lines from a set of 3 fail, or all three fail.
Two from a set of 3:
Can be A and B, A and C, or B and C. Three possible outcomes then.
The probability of each is:
0.01*0.01*0.99
Two failling, each with 0.01 probability, and 1 working, with 0.99 probability.
All three:
Each with 0.01 probability.
a) What is the probability that the system will collapse
Both cases, so

0.000298 = 0.0298% probability that the system will collapse
Answer:
B. Side <em>a</em> is 7 inches long and side <em>b</em> is 6 inches long.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the scale drawing is three times bigger than the actual object, divide both numbers by three to find the object size.
Side a:
21/3 = 7 inches
Side b:
18/3 = 6 inches
