The Pythagorean theorem is the square of the length hypotenuse side of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other 2 sides. <span />
Answer:
The correct answer is 0.94147
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A denote the event that the podiatrist finds the first person with an ingrown toenail.
And (1 - A) denote the event that the podiatrist does not find the ingrown toenail.
While examining seven people, the podiatrist can find the very first person to have an ingrown toenail. Similarly he can find the second patient to have the ingrown toenail. Going in this way the probability of the first person to have an ingrown toenail is given by:
= A + (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A + (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × (1 - A) × A.
= 
= 
= 0.94147
We can also solve the above expression by using the geometric progression formula as well where common ratio is given by
.
Take 16x divide it by 2 and square it. 16/2= 8. 8^2= 64. So, the first step will be to add 64 to both sides.
In order to figure out what the answer is you would have to divide the number of feet it fell by the time. If you do 35.75 divided by 3.25 it would be 11.
So the answer most likely would be 11
