Answer:

The value of x is 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: h² = a² + b²

<u>Let's solve using Pythagoras theorem.</u>

=> 13² = 5² + x²
=> 169 = 25 + x²
=> 169 - 25 = x²
=> 144 = x²
=> √x² = √144
=> x = √144
=> x = 12

Hence, the value of x is 12 units.

Elodia [21]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let w represent the weight of the animal in pounds, and d the age in days. The problem statement tells us ...

... w = 75 +2d

We want to find d when w > 125.

... 75 +2d > 125 . . . . . substitute the above expression for w

... 2d > 50 . . . . . . . . . subtract 75

... d > 25 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The animal will weigh more than 125 pounds when it is more than 25 days old.

A bag of marbles contains 12 red marbles 8 blue marbles and 5 green marbles. If three marbles are pulled out find each of the pr

worty [1.4K]

Answer: The probability of pulling a red marble is 48%, probability of pulling a blue marble is 32%, probability of pulling a green marble is 20%

and

the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is 0.8%.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a bag of marbles contains 12 red marbles 8 blue marbles and 5 green marbles.

Let S be the sample space for the experiment of pulling a marble.

Then, n(S) = 12 + 8 + 5 = 25.

Let, E, F and G represents the events of pulling a red marble, a blue marble and a green marble respectively.

The, n(E) = 12, n(F) = 8 and n(G) = 5.

Therefore, the probabilities of each of these three events E, F and G will be

$P(E)=\dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{12}{25}=\dfrac{12}{25}\times100\%=48\%,\\\\\\P(F)=\dfrac{n(F)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{8}{25}=\dfrac{8}{25}\times100\%=32\%,\\\\\\P(G)=\dfrac{n(G)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{5}{25}=\dfrac{5}{25}\times100\%=20\%.$

Now, the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is given by

$P(G)\times P(G)\times P(G)=\dfrac{5}{25}\times\dfrac{5}{25}\times \dfrac{5}{25}=\dfrac{1}{125}=\dfrac{1}{125}\times100\%=0.8\%.$

Thus, the probability of pulling a red marble is 48%, probability of pulling a blue marble is 32%, probability of pulling a green marble is 20%

and

the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is 0.8%.

How many sides do 1980 have

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

13 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

1980 = (n − 2)×180 Formula for number of sides

n − 2 = 1980/180 Divide both sides by 180

n - 2 = 11

+ 2 + 2 Add 2 to both sides

n = 13
