In order to use the Pythagorean Theorem, you must know the lengths of at least 2 sides (any 2 sides, but it has to be 2.) of the triangle and know that the measure of one of the angles is 90 degrees.

A rectangular board has an area of 648 square centimeters. The triangular part of the board has an area of 162 square centimeter

maksim [4K]

Answer:

25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E be the event that the dart lands inside the triangle.

We have been given that a rectangular board has an area of 648 square centimeters. The triangular part of the board has an area of 162 square centimeters.

We know that probability of an event represents the chance that an event will happen.

$\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favorable no. of events}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}}$

$\text{Probability that dart lands inside the triangle}=\frac{\text{Area of triangle}}{\text{Area of rectangle}}$

$\text{Probability that dart lands inside the triangle}=\frac{162}{648}$

$\text{Probability that dart lands inside the triangle}=0.25$

Convert into percentage:

$0.25\times 100\%=25\%$

Therefore, the probability that dart lands inside the triangle is 25%.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

0.714 ; 0.556 ; (A1 n A2 n A3) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

P(oil) = 0.35

P(filter) = 0.45

P(oil n filter) = 0.25

P(filter | Oil) = P(oil n filter) / P(oil)

P(filter | Oil) = 0.25 / 0.35 = 0.714

11)

P(Oil | filter) = P(oil n filter) / P(filter)

P(Oil | filter ) = 0.25 / 0.45 = 0.556

Number of red aces = 2

Queen or king = 4 + 4 = 8

Number on card greater than 3 and less than 8 = {4,5,6,7} = 4 card ; for 4 suits = 4 * 4 = 16

Total number of cards in deck = 52

Choosing without replacement :

Hence,

A1 = 2 / 52

A2 = 8 / 51

A3 = 16 / 50

(A1 n A2 n A3) ;this means card common to all three events.

However, (A1 n A2 n A3) = 0 because ;

1.) No red ace card is greater than 3 and less than 8.

11.) An ace card can neither be a king nor a queen

6% of it is 27<br> I need help. Someone please give me a explanation of how to do this.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

You take 6% of a number and the resulting number is 27.

To do this you need to change the percent into a fraction.

6% = 6/100

This is the number you need to multiply to the number you need to find, A.

6/100 A = 27

Solve for x

6 A = 27x100

A= 2700/6

A = 450

Check your answer:

6/100 (A) = 27

6/100 (450) = 27

(6x450) /100 = 27

2700 / 100 = 27

27 = 27

10 subtracted from a number is 15.

Vlada [557]

When negative five is subtracted from a number the result is 10. The number is 5.
x - (-5) = 10
x + 5 = 10
x = 10 - 5
x = 5
