Answer: 10</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
The two smaller triangles are proportional, which lets us set up this equation
5/n = n/15
Cross multiplying leads to
5*15 = n*n
n^2 = 75
----------
Apply the pythagorean theorem on the smaller triangle on top, or on the right.
a^2+b^2 = c^2
5^2+n^2 = m^2
25+75 = m^2
100 = m^2
m^2 = 100
m = sqrt(100)
m = 10
Given that the production of n stalks of corn planted has been modeled by (2n^2-2n), then the approximate ears of corn produced by 3 stalks will be given by:
2n^2-2n
plugging in n=3 in the formula we get:
2(3)^2-2(3)
simplifying we get:
2(9)-6
=18-6
=12
the answer is: 12 ears
Answer:
14/20 or .7 or 70%
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Number of cards: 20
Number of Red cards: 6
The leftover cards: 20 -6 = 14
The probability of not getting a red = 14/20
14/20 as a decimal = 14/20 = 70/100 = .7
14/20 as a percent = 14/20 = 70/100 = 70%
Answer:
However much he had on his card in the first place.
Step-by-step explanation:
Say he had $500 on his card. He took 0 rides ( no rides ) so he doesn't lose any money. Leaving him with his starting amount, $500.
