Answer:

1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

First you must figure out your total outcomes, int the problem it said ten. Than take the number of students and put the number of students over the number of outcomes. This will tell you the probability of drawing one student. Next you must subtract 1 student and one member from your original equation. This is because you have assumed that the first drawing had a favorable outcome. So that leaves you with 2/9. Next you must multiply both the first fraction (3/10) and the second fraction (2/9) to come up with the total probability of the event occurring.

Hope that helped.

o-na [289]

Answer: Exactly square root 58 inches

Step-by-step explanation: The dimensions given for the right angled triangle are 7 inches and 3 inches respectively. The third side is yet unknown. However what we know is that a right angled triangle can be solved by using the Pythagoras theorem which states that,

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

Where AC is the longest side. The question requires us to calculate the longest side and with the other two sides already known, the Pythagoras theorem now becomes,

AC^2 = 7^2 + 3^2

AC^2 = 49 + 9

AC^2 = 58

Add the square root sign to both sides of the equation

AC = square root 58 inches

Answer:

Step 1 Eliminate fractions by multiplying all terms by the least common denominator of all fractions.

Step 2 Simplify by combining like terms on each side of the inequality.

Step 3 Add or subtract quantities to obtain the unknown on one side and the numbers on the other.

Step 4 Divide each term of the inequality by the coefficient of the unknown. If the coefficient is positive, the inequality will remain the same. If the coefficient is negative, the inequality will be reversed.

Step 5 Check your answer.
