First draw is 6 out of 10  = 6/10 = 3/5
Second draw is 5 girls out of 9 remaining children  = 5/9

Now we multiply the probabilities:

3/5  x 5/9   (you can cancel out the 5's since one is in the numerator and the other is in the denominator.  You can also reduce the 3 and 9.  The answer is 3/9=1/3
So the chances that the first two selected will be girls is 1/3.

Which choice is an example of an exponential growth function?
swat32
The example of exponential growth is: <span>c. y=0.5(1.5)x </span>

The function y = ab˟ is a can only be growth function if the value b>1. And if 0<b<1 it will decay. Therefore, the only correct value that fits the definition of exponential growth is option C.

Two similar triangles have have areas of 75 m2 and 12 m2. find the ratio of the perimeters
soldi70 [24.7K]

we know that having similar triangles so the ratio of sides,area and volume are same.

s/s=s^2/s^2

we know that s^2 will be the area of triangle.

s^2/s^2=75/12

so s/s=\sqrt{75/12}

so the ratio of the perimeter of two triangles will be

(s+s+s)/(s+s+s)=(\sqrt{75} +\sqrt{75} +\sqrt{75} )/(\sqrt{12}+\sqrt{12} +\sqrt{12} )

ratio of the perimeter=\sqrt{225} /\sqrt{36}

Mike is pouring a two foot cement sidewalk around the perimeter of his swimming pool. His swimming pool measures 6 feet by 14 fe
frosja888 [35]
9 inches * 1 foot / 12 inches
= 3/4 feet deep

Area of the sidewalk: 
= the sides of the pool * the width of the sidewalk + the corners of the sidewalk (width * width)
= 2 sides * 6 (feet / side) * 2 feet + 2 sides * 14 (feet / side) * 2 feet + 4 corners * (2 feet * 2 feet / corner)
= 12 feet * 2 feet + 28 feet * 2 feet + 4 * 2 feet * 2 feet
= 24 feet^2 + 56 feet^2 + 16 feet^2
= 96 feet^2

Volume:
= 96 feet^2 * 3/4 feet
= (96 * 3 / 4) feet^3
= (19 * 3) feet^3
= 57 feet^3

Answer:

Angle ACD = 38°

Step-by-step explanation:

The full, correct question is presented the attached image to this solution.

Given

Point O is the centre if the circle

Points A, B, C and D are points on the circle

Angle AOB = 140°

Angle OAC = 14°

Angle AOB = 2 × (Angle ACB) [angle subtended at the centre of the circle is twice the angle subtended at the circumference of the circle)

140° = 2 × (Angle ACB)

Angle ACB = (140°/2) = 70°

(Angle AOB) + (Angle OAB) + (Angle ABO) = 180° [sun of angles in a triangle is 180°]

But Angle OAB = Angle ABO = a [base angles of an iscosceles triangle are equal since OA and OB are both radii for the circle O)

(Angle AOB) + (Angle OAB) + (Angle ABO) = 180°

140° + a + a = 180°

2a = 40°

a = (40/2) = 20°

Angle OAB = Angle ABO = 20°

Angle CAB = (Angle OAC) + (Angle OAB) = 14° + 20° = 34°

Triangle ADC is an iscosceles triangle, hence,

Angle DAC = Angle ACD = x [base angles of an iscosceles triangle are equal]

But

(Angle DCB) + (Angle DAB) = 180° [Opposite angles of a cyclic quadilateral (a quadilateral inscribed in a circle) sum up to give 180°]

Angle DCB = (Angle DCA) + (Angle ACB) = (x + 70°)

Angle DAB = (Angle DAC) + (Angle CAB) = (x + 34°)

(Angle DCB) + (Angle DAB) = 180°

(x + 70°) + (x + 34°) = 180°

2x + 104° = 180°

2x = 180° - 104° = 76°

x = (76°/2) = 38°

Angle DAC = Angle ACD = 38°

Angle ACD = 38°

Hope this Helps!!!
