Answer:

86.452 m

Step-by-step explanation:

I've attached an image showing the position of the person and the string and the kite.

From the image attached, we can see that the length of the string can be calculated from pythagoras theorem since the triangle is a right angled triangle.

Thus, let length of string be denoted as s.

s = √(65² + 57²)

s = √7474

s ≈ 86.452 m

(14.14) larry reads that 1 out of 6 eggs contains salmonella bacteria. so he never uses more than 5 eggs in cooking. if eggs do
melomori [17]

we know that

The probability that "at least one" is the probability of exactly one, exactly 2, exactly 3, 4 and 5 contain salmonella.

The easiest way to solve this is to recognise that "at least one" is ALL 100% of the possibilities EXCEPT that none have salmonella.

If the probability that any one egg has 1/6 chance of salmonella

then

the probability that any one egg will not have salmonella = 5/6.

Therefore

for all 5 to not have salmonella


= (5/6)^5 = 3125 / 7776

= 0.401877 = 0.40 to 2 decimal places


REMEMBER this is the probability that NONE have salmonella


Therefore

the probability that at least one does = 1 - 0.40

= 0.60


the answer is

0.60 or 60%

A scale for a drawing is 5 centimeters= 1 meter. What is the scale in terms of centimeter to centimeters
umka2103 [35]

The scale in cm to cm is:

1 cm = 20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Scales are used to draw maps and blueprints of large objects on paper.

Given scale is:

5 centimeters = 1 meter

WE have to find the centimeter to centimeter scale. In order to do so, we have to convert the meters into centimeters

As there are 100 centimeters in a meter

So,

the scale will be:

5 cm = 100 cm

Simplifying:

The scale in cm to cm is:

1 cm = 20 cm
