Can someone help me with this question me and my friends are fighting over it?

1 answer:

4 0

Okay so I am not 100% sure but I think it is C. 1/12;

Because if you rearrange all the letters so that W is is the beginning you get 6 different combinations.

Then I multiplied those 6 combinations by 4 because there are 4 letters.

Once I multiplied I got 2/24 because there are 24 possibilities in total, and we are looking for the probability of getting those 2 combinations.

I simplified 2/24 to its lowest form and I got 2/24 = 1/12.

So the correct answer is C.1/12, hope this helps!

4. A horizontal ellipse, centered at the origin has a major axis of 10 units and minor axis of 8 units. Write the

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

$\frac{x^2}{25} +\frac{y^2}{16} =1$

Step-by-step explanation:

For ellipses, the length of the major axis is represents as:

Major axis = $2a$

where $a$ is called the semi-major axis.

In this case since the major axis is equal to 10 units:

$10=2a$

solving for the semi-major axis $a$ :

$a=10/2\\a=5$

and also the minor axis of an ellipse is represented as:

Minor axis = $2b$

where $b$ is called the semi-minor axis.

Since the minor axis has a length of 8 units:

$8=2b$

solving for b:

$b=8/2\\b=4$

Now we can use the equation for an ellipse centered at the origin (0,0):

$\frac{x^2}{a^2} +\frac{y^2}{b^2} =1$

and substituting the values for $a$ and $b$ :

$\frac{x^2}{5^2} +\frac{y^2}{4^2} =1$

and finall we simplify the expression to get the equation of the ellipse:

$\frac{x^2}{25} +\frac{y^2}{16} =1$

How would you represent the expression 36 – 3(4) on the number line shown?

zaharov [31]

Answer:

D. Begin at 36 and move four units to the left three times

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is 36 - 3(4)

It means "it starts with 36 less 3 times 4."

Here "less" means we have to move to the left

Therefore, the answer is "D. Begin at 36 and move four units to the left three times"

Thank you.

The height of a triangle is 7 ft more than its base. if the area of the triangle is 30 ft^ what is the lentgh of the base

Dmitriy789 [7]

Since the area of a triangle is in the form
area=0.5(base)(height)
height=base+7
let base=x
area=0.5(x)(7+x)
30=3.5x+0.5x^2
multiply the equation by 2
60=7x+x^2
subtract 60 from both sides
x^2+7x-60=0
(x-5)(x+12)=0
thus x=5 or x=-12 since we are only considering positive answers
x=-12 is rejected
so base=5 and height=5+7=12
