Answer: 275$

I'm not entirely sure I did this right! But at least try!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

20/100 = 55/x (cross multiply)

20x = 5,500 (divide)

X = 275

A roulette wheel has 38 pockets numbered 0,00,and 1 to 36. Of all 38 pockets 18 are red, 18 are black and 2 are green. Each time

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

P(R) = (18/38)

P(G) = (2/38)

P(B) = (18/38)

Step-by-step explanation:

Each spin is independent of the others, so the probabilities of the three possible outcomes (R,G,B) for each spin are:

P(R) = (18/38)

P(G) = (2/38)

P(B) = (18/38)

Angle c is inscribed in circle O. AB is a diameter of circle O. what is the radius of circle.

Llana [10]

Answer:

The value of radius is 7.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a line that pass through the origin and form a triangle is a right-angle triangle. So in order to find the diameter/hypotenuse, you have to use Pythogaras Theorem :

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2}$

Let a = 12 units,

Let b = 9 units,

Let c = hypo.,

${hypo.}^{2} = {12}^{2} + {9}^{2}$

${hypo.}^{2} = 225$

$hypo. = \sqrt{225}$

$hypo. = 15 \: \: units$

We have found out that the hypotenuse of the triangle is the diameter of circle. So in order to find radius, you have to divide it by 2 :

$radius = diameter \div 2$

$radius = 15 \div 2$

$radius = 7.5 \: \: units$

If the perimeter of the top of desk is 54 inches the length of the desk is

allsm [11]

Formula: $2width+2length=perimeter$

$length=15inches$

$width=?$

$Perimeter=54inches$

$2*15=30$ (There are two sides for the length)

$54-30=24$

$24/2=12$ (There are two sides for the width)

The width of the desk is 15 inches

What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 2.5 meters?

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

15.71m

Step-by-step explanation:

circumference of a circle = 2πr

where r = 2.5m

where π = 3.142

we have,

2*3.142*2.5 = 15.71m

therefore the circumference of a circle with a radius 2.5m = 15.71 m
