Answer:

not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that If a triangle is a right triangle,

the hypotenuse^2 will equal to shorter^2 + longer^2

hypotenuse = 18, shorter side = 4, longer side = 17

18^2 = 4^2 + 17^2

324 = 16 + 289

324 = 305

That is false, therefore the triangle is not a right triangle

The matrix to solve

Maurinko [17]

This question is impossible to solve.

this is why:

if 4x-4=0
then x=1

so if 8x + 4 = 8

then x is false.

I get these question quite a lot in my GCSEs.

you have to prove why they are fake.

Find the probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 b

jeka94

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information; Let's assume that R should represent the set of all possible outcomes generated from a bit string of length 10 .

So; as each place is fitted with either 0 or 1

$\mathbf{|R|= 2^{10}}$

Similarly; the event E signifies the randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0

Now;

if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely

The probability that a randomly generated bit string of length 10 does not contain a 0 if bits are independent and if a 0 bit and a 1 bit are equally likely is;

$\mathbf{P(E) = \dfrac{|E|}{|R|}}$
