The little lines in each side show that the sides are the same length but you also need to find the length of the smaller side which isn’t the same. For this imagine that the shape is split into a square and a triangle and you need to find the long side of the triangle using Pythagoras
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
20^2 + 20^2 = 800
Square root of 800 = 28.3
Then do 28.3-20=8.3
So I think the answer is 20+20+20+20+20+8.3=108.3 cm

The answer should be 83 shots made since you would get the answer 83.3333333 if you did the math and you can't have a me basket made.

To the right are the outcomes that are possible when a couple has three children. assume that boys and girls are equally likely

hoa [83]

The all possible eight outcomes of boy or girl birth when a couple have three children is

(GBB) , (GBG), (GGB) , (GGG), (BBG), (BGB), (BGG), (BBB)

Where B represents boy and G represents Girl

The probability that having exactly 1 girl is

= Number of outcomes with one girl / Total numbers of outcomes

Now Number of outcomes with only one girl = GBB, BGB, BBG = 3

So the probability will be

The probability that having exactly 1 girl is = 3/8 = 0.375

The probability that when a couple has three children, there is exactly 1 girl is 0.375

Justin weighs 15 pounds less than Greg weighs. Half of Greg’s weight is 75 pounds less than Justin’s weight. How much does each

sp2606 [1]

Lets take Gregs weight as “x”. This means that Justins weight is x-15, and x/2 = (x-15)-75.

If we take that last equation, lets combine like terms:

x/2 = x - 15 - 75
x/2 = x - 90
Now multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction
x = 2x - 180
Subtract 2x from both sides
x - 2x = -180
-x = -180
x = 180 — this is Gregs weight

Justins weight is x-15, so 180-15, which is 165 pounds. Hope this helped.
