Answer: C. \dfrac{13}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of men = 24

The number of women = 26

The total number of people in the room =24+26=50

Now, the probability that a woman is chosen is given by :-

\text{P(women)}=\dfrac{\text{Number of women}}{\text{Total people}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{P(women)}=\dfrac{26}{50}=\dfrac{13}{25}

Hence, the probability that a woman is chosen is \dfrac{13}{25}

probability = (number of relevant possibilities)/(total number of possible outcomes)

p(woman chosen) = 26 / (24+26) = 13/25

Correct answer is (C)

Mike sees 3 more fish than Chris. Chris sees 6 fish. How many fish does Mike see? It says use comparison bars. Thanks
Katen [24]
Chris sees 6 fish.

Mike sees 3 more fish than Chris.

6 + 3 = 9

So on your bar, you have Chris's number of fish he saw, 6, and you have 3 being added to that on Mike's bar.

What is the length (magnitude) of the vector (5 -2) <br> a. √29<br> b. 5√5<br> c. 5<br> d.√2
malfutka [58]

Answer:

a. √29

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the magnitude of a vector is magnitude = sqrt(x^2 + y^2).

For vector (5, -2):

magnitude = sqrt(5^2 + -2^2)

magnitude = sqrt(25 + 4)

magnitude = sqrt(29)

Therefore, the answer is √29.

Hope this helped :D
