Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

If two shapes are similar, this means the ratio of similar sides to each other are the same.

So, in the green shape, the long side length is 5 mm. In the purple shape, the long side length is 10 mm in length. The ratio is therefore 5 to 10, which can be simplified to 1 to 2 (which is basically saying that the side lengths of the purple shape are double the length of the sides of the green shape).

Using the same 1 to 2 ratio, you know that the short side length on the green shape is 1. The short side length on the purple shape (j) must therefore be double, which is 2.

In a class 27 of students, 12 have a cat and 11 have a dog. There are 5 students who have a cat and a dog. What is the probabili
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

41.67% probability that a student has a dog given that they have a cat

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: having a cat.

Event B: having a dog.

12 of 27 students have a cat:

This means that P(A) = \frac{12}{27}

5 students who have a cat and a dog.

This means that P(A \cap B) = \frac{5}{27}

What is the probability that a student has a dog given that they have a cat?

P(B|A) = \frac{\frac{5}{27}}{\frac{12}{27}} = \frac{5}{12} = 0.4167

41.67% probability that a student has a dog given that they have a cat

Let $a_1$, $a_2$, . . . , $a_{10}$ be an arithmetic sequence. If $a_1 + a_3 + a_5 + a_7 + a_9 = 17$ and $a_2 + a_4 + a_6 + a_8 +
vfiekz [6]

So

a be first term and d be common difference

  • a+a+2d+a+4d+a+6d+a+9d=17
  • 5a+21d=17--(1)

And

  • a+d+a+3d+a+5d+a+7d+a+9d=15
  • 5a+25d=15--(2)

Eq(1)-Eq(2)

  • -4d=-2
  • d=1/2

Put in second one

  • 5a+25d=15
  • a+5d=3
  • a+5/2=15
  • a=15-5/2
  • a=25/2
