What would be the probability that randomly choosing 3 states from the top 6 murder states would actually be the top 3 states for murders in the United States in the exact correct descending order?
Each state and # of murders
1.California 1790
2.Texas 1089
3.New York 774
4.Pennsylvania 636
5.Michigan 613
6.Georgia 522

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The chances would be (if you cant get duplicates)

1/6

1/5

1/4

If you want the states in order

You multiply them together

6 x 5 x 4 = 1/120 chance to get them in that order

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 6 inches and one of the legs is √ 6 inches, the exact value of the other leg is _______ inches.A. 15
B. √ 15
C. 30
D. √ 30

Answers

Answer:

The answer is the option D

$√(30)\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a right triangle

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

$c^(2) =a^(2)+b^(2)$

where

c is the hypotenuse

a and b are the legs

In this problem we have

$c=6\ in\na=√(6)\ in$

substitute and solve for b

$6^(2) =(√(6))^(2)+b^(2)$

$36 =6+b^(2)$

$b^(2)=30$

$b=√(30)\ in$

The answer is D
Cause it is right triangle, so through Pythagorean theorem, you can know the answer

No responses yet... John is making trail mix based on a recipe that combines 6 cups of nuts with 5 cups of granola. John has 36 cups of nuts. How many cups of trail mix (total) does he have?

Answers

Given:

A recipe combines 6 cups of nuts with 5 cups of granola.

John has 36 cups of nuts.

To find:

Number of cups of trail mix (total) does he have.

Solution:

The recipe combines 6 cups of nuts with 5 cups of granola.

The recipe combines 1 cup of nuts with $(5)/(6)$ cups of granola.

The recipe combines 36 cup of nuts with $36* (5)/(6)$ cups of granola.

So, the number of cups of granola in trail mix is

$Granola=36* (5)/(6)$

$Granola=6* 5$

$Granola=30$

Total number of cups = cups of nuts + cups of granola.

$=36+30$

$=66$

Therefore, the total number of cups in trail mix (total) he have, is 66.
