Answer:

a=10

Step-by-step explanation:

use a^2+b^2=c^2

(a+2)^2+(a-5)^2=(a+3)^2

a^2+4a+4+a^2-10a+25=a^2+6a+9

2a^2-6a+29=a^2+6a+9

a^2-12a=-20

a^2-12a+20=0

quadratic formula→(12+/-8)/2

a=10 or 2

2 is not an option because 2-5=-3 which isn't possible in this case.

so a=10

Seven out of ten people say they will vote for Mrs. Meekus . If 5,500 people vote,how many are likely to vote for Mrs.Meekus​
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

3,850 people are likely to vote for Mrs. Meekus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mrs. Meekus has a voting intention of 7 out of 10, that is, 70%, in the event that 5,500 people are going to vote in the elections, the voting intention for this candidate would be obtained through the following calculation:

5,500 x 0.70 = X

3,850 = X

Thus, if said voting intention is reproduced, Mrs. Meekus would be voted by 3,850 voters.

There are 10 marbles in a bag. Four are blue, 3 are black and 2 white and 1 red. If the marbles are not replaced once they are d
stich3 [128]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that there are 10 marbles in a bag. 4 are blue, 3 are black, 2 are white and 1 is red.

The marbles are selected by not replacing the drawn ones.

We need to the probability of selected a black marble and then a white marble without replacement.

<u>Probability</u>:

Let B denote the black marble.

Let W denote the white marble.

The probability of selecting a black marble is P(B)=\frac{3}{10}

The probability of selecting a white marble without replacement is P(W)=\frac{2}{9}

The probability of selecting a black marble and then a white marble without replacement is given by

P(B \ and \ W)=P(B) \cdot P(W)

Substituting the values, we get;

P(B \ and \ W)=\frac{3}{10} \cdot \frac{2}{9}

P(B \ and \ W)=\frac{6}{90}

P(B \ and \ W)=\frac{1}{15}

Thus, the probability of selecting a black marble and then a white marble without replacement is \frac{1}{15}
