The equation that can be used to solve for SC is 10/18 = SC/24

<h3>What are similar triangles?</h3>

They are triangles having similar sides and angles.

From the diagram shown, we can use the similarity theorem of triangles to get the measure of SC

From the figure we are given the information:

CR= 10,
CB = 18, and;
AC = 24

According to the similarity theorem'

CR/CB = SC/AC

10/18 = SC/24

Hence the equation that can be used to solve for SC is 10/18 = SC/24

A spinner marked A, B, C is spun then a 6-sided die is rolled. What is the probability of getting a B and then a 6.

BigorU [14]

Given:

A spinner marked A, B, C is spun then a 6-sided die is rolled.

To find:

The probability of getting a B and then a 6.

Solution:

We know that,

$\text{Probability}=\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}$

Total possible values for a spinner are 3. So, the probability of getting B, we get

$P(B)=\dfrac{1}{3}$

Total possible values for a die are 6. So, the probability of getting 6, we get

$P(6)=\dfrac{1}{6}$

Now, the probability of getting a B and then a 6 is

$P(B,6)=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \dfrac{1}{6}$

$P(B,6)=\dfrac{1}{18}$

The required probability is $\dfrac{1}{18}$ .

Therefore, the correct option is D.

A motorboat takes 5 hours to travel 100mi going upstream. The return trip takes 2 hours going downstream. What is the rate of th

Temka [501]

The boat went 5hours upstream, let's say it has a "still water" speed rate of "b", it went 100miles... however, going upstream is going against the current, let's say the current has a speed rate of "c"

so, when the boat was going up, it wasn't really going "b" fast, it was going " b - c " fast, because the current was eroding speed from it

now, when coming down, the return trip, well the length is the same, so the distance is also 100miles, it only took 2hrs though, because, the boat wasn't coming down "b" fast, it was coming down " b + c " fast, because the current was adding speed to it, so it came down quicker

now, recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time

$\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&distance&rate&time\\
&-----&-----&-----\\
upstream&100&b-c&5\\
downstream&100&b+c&2
\end{array}
\\\\\\
\begin{cases}
100=(b-c)5\\
\qquad \frac{100}{5}=b-c\\
\qquad 20=b-c\\
\qquad 20+c=\boxed{b}\\
100=(b+c)2\\
\qquad 50=b+c\\
\qquad 50=\boxed{20+c}+c
\end{cases}$

solve for "c", to see what's the current's speed

what's "b"? well 20+c = b

maw [93]

Well, 9 is the largest, but 4 is the smallest and 3 is the second odd number. So it would go yes, no, no or if it's just one question, it would be no.
