Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

5water=1/2punch multiply by 12 to get 6 cups of punch so 5 x 12=60 and 1/2 x 12=6

Answer:

(a) 0.4242

(b) 0.0707

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of ways of selecting 8 herbs from 12 is

$\binom{12}{8}=495$

(a) If 2 herbs are selected, then there are 8 - 2 = 6 herbs to be selected from 12 - 8 = 10. The number of ways of the selection is then

$\binom{10}{6}= 210$

Note that this is the number of ways that both are included. We would have multiplied by 2! if any of them were to be included.

The probability = $\dfrac{210}{495}=0.4242$

(b) If 5 herbs are selected, then there are 8 - 5 = 3 herbs to be selected from 12 - 5 = 7. The number of ways of the selection is then

$\binom{7}{3}= 35$

This is the number of ways that both are included. We would have multiplied by 5! if any of them were to be included. In that case, our probability will exceed 1; this implies that certainly, at least, one of them is included.

The probability = $\dfrac{35}{495}=0.0707$

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 13.0, and one leg is 9.0 units shorter than the other. Find the dimensions of the figure (

Darina [25.2K]

Let, one leg be x units.
since the other leg is 9.0 units shorter than the other,
the measure of the other leg =x-9
hypotenuse =13.0 units
According to Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.
x^2 +(x-9)^2 =13^2
x^2 + x^2 -18x +81 = 169
2x^2-18x-88=0
Divide the whole equation by 2
x^2 - 9x -44 =0
Let's use the quadratic formula to find the roots.
formula: x= [-b Â± sqrt(b^2-4*a*c)]/2*a
a=1 b=-9 c=-44
x= [9Â±sqrt(81+176)]/2
=[9Â±sqrt(257)]/2
=[9Â±16.03]/2
=25.03/2 or -7.03/2
length of a triangle cannot be negative,
Therefore, x=25.03/2 =12.52
one leg =12.5 units
other leg =12.52-9 =3.5 units
