Answer as a fraction = 1/5040

Answer in decimal form (approximate) = 0.000198

Answer in percentage form (approximate) = 0.0198%

=========================================================

Explanation:

There is only one ordering of the letters to get DESIGN out of 5040 different permutations. The 5040 comes from the fact that 7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 5040. In shorthand notation, use factorials to say 7! = 5040. Notice how we started with 7 and counted down until reaching 1, multiplying all along the way. You could use the nPr permutation formula to get the same result of 5040 (use n = 7 and r = 7).

So because we have 1 way to order the letters (getting DESIGN) out of 5040 ways total, this means the probability is the fraction 1/5040. Use your calculator to find that 1/5040 = 0.000198 approximately. Move the decimal over 2 spots to the right to convert 0.000198 to 0.0198%

How many triangles can be constructed with angles measuring 10º, 80º, and 90º?
Feliz [49]
The answer is A. more than one, because you can create one, but then you can move the angles around. So if the angles in order go 10°, 80°, 90°, you could change the order to 90°, 10°, 80°, or something. I hope this helps!

Alla [95]
Since the sum of all probabilities of all all elementary events will always be equal to 1. Furthermore, the probabilities of all mutually exclusive set of events that is part of the entire sample space will always be total of 1.

So in the problem, the answer is 1/8.
1/8 for red + 3/8 for green + 3/8 for yellow + 1/8 for blue = 8/8 or 1.

Angela and Neil are going to the movies. They each bought a medium popcorn, and Neil got a small soft drink. Angela had a $5 gif
bagirrra123 [75]
Let us assume the cost of a soft drink = x dollars
Value of the gift certificate that Angela had = $5
Cost of the movie ticket = $10
Cost of a medium popcorn = $5.50
Then
27.90 + 5 = 2(10) + 2(5.50) + x
32.90 = 20 + 11 + x
32.90 = 31 + x
x = 1.90 dollars

From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or $1.90.
