Answer:
180 plants
Step-by-step explanation:
the area of a right triangle is: ab/2
side a = 8
side b = 15
8 x 15 = 120
120/2 = 60
Michael wants 3 plants for every square yard (multiply by 3)
60 x 3 = 180
Here's the way I see it: 5 cards are drawn, one by one, without replacement. Half (or 26) of the original deck are black and half (26) are white.
P(5 are not black) = P(5 are red)
P(5 are not black) = P(first card is red) * P(second card is red) * P(third card is red)*P(fourth card is red)*P(fifth card is red) =
(26/52) * (25/51) * (24/50) * (23/49) * (22/48) = 0.025 (answer)
We start with 52 cards. We draw one, leaving 51 cards, 25 of which are red. And so on.
Yeah the answer is number 5
