Answer:

a =b = \frac{5\sqrt{5} }{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{2} +b^{2} = 5 ^{2}

a = b

2a^{2}   = 5 ^{2}

2a^{2}   = 25\\

a^{2}   = \frac{25}{5}

a = \frac{5}{\sqrt{5} }

must rationalize...

a =b = \frac{5\sqrt{5} }{5}

There is a bag filled with 5 blue, 6 red and 2 green marbles.
vodka [1.7K]

The probability of getting exactly 1 green will be 1/13.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

The chances of an event occurring are defined by probability. Probability has several uses in games, in business to create probability-based forecasts,

Given data;

No of blue marbles= 5,

No of red marbles=6

No of green marbles=2

Total no of ball  = 5+6+2

Total no of ball  = 13

The probability of getting one green marble is;

P(G)=1/13

Hence, the probability of getting exactly 1 green will be 1/13.

12.<br>The container shown has a capacity of 60 milliliters.<br>What fraction of it is empty?<br>​
White raven [17]

This is an incomplete question, the image is shown below.

Answer : The fraction empty container is, \frac{7}{12}

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that:

The capacity of container = 60 mL

In the given figure, the container is filled with 25 mL.

That means,

60 - 25 = 35 mL container is empty.

Now we have to calculate the fraction of it is empty.

The fraction of it is empty = \frac{\text{Capacity of empty container}}{\text{Total capacity of container}}

The fraction of it is empty = \frac{35mL}{60mL}

The fraction of it is empty = \frac{7}{12}

Therefore, the fraction empty container is, \frac{7}{12}
