The answer is 7/69.

There are 8 black-haired children among 24 children. The probability of <span>randomly selecting black haired children for the first time is:
P1 = 8/24 = 1/3

Now, there are 7 black-haired children left among 23 children. The probability of </span>randomly selecting black haired children for the second time is:
P2 = 7/23

Since we want both of these events to occur together, we will multiply their probabilities:
P = P1 * P2 = 1/3 * 7/23 = 7/69

The points (7,r) and (8,9) fall on a line with a slope of 5. What is the value of r?
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

r = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula and equate to 5

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, r ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, 9)

m = \frac{9-r}{8-7} = \frac{9-r}{1} = 9 - r = 5 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

- r = - 4 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

r = 4

Answer:

The answer is "The second choice".

Step-by-step explanation:

r=6\\\\h=13 \\\\

Formula:

A=2\pi rh

=2\times 3.14 \times 6 \times 13\\\\=2\times 3.14 \times 78\\\\=3.14 \times 156\\\\=3.14 \times 156\\\\=489.84 \approx 489.8 ft^2

I don't know how to do this or what i'm doing plz help

recalling that d = rt, distance = rate * time.


we know Hector is going at 12 mph, and he has already covered 18 miles, how long has he been biking already?


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} miles&hours\\ \cline{1-2} 12&1\\ 18&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{12}{18}=\cfrac{1}{x}\implies 12x=18\implies x=\cfrac{18}{12}\implies x=\cfrac{3}{2}


so Hector has been biking for those 18 miles for 3/2 of an hour, namely and hour and a half already.

then Wanda kicks in, rolling like a lightning at 16mph.

let's say the "meet" at the same distance "d" at "t" hours after Wanda entered, so that means that Wanda has been traveling for "t" hours, but Hector has been traveling for "t + (3/2)" because he had been biking before Wanda.

the distance both have travelled is the same "d" miles, reason why they "meet", same distance.


\bf \begin{array}{lcccl} &\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\ \cline{2-4}&\\ Hector&d&12&t+\frac{3}{2}\\[1em] Wanda&d&16&t \end{array}\qquad \implies \begin{cases} \boxed{d}=(12)\left( t+\frac{3}{2} \right)\\[1em] d=(16)(t) \end{cases}


\bf \stackrel{\textit{substituting \underline{d} in the 2nd equation}}{\boxed{(12)\left( t+\frac{3}{2} \right)}=16t}\implies 12t+18=16t \\\\\\ 18=4t\implies \cfrac{18}{4}=t\implies \cfrac{9}{2}=t\implies \stackrel{\textit{four and a half hours}}{4\frac{1}{2}=t}
