A random supporter roots the home team with probability 0.9, and the away team with probability 0.1.

Choosing 6 out of 8 supporters who root for the home team has probability

\displaystyle\binom{8}{6}\cdot 0.9^6\cdot 0.1^2 = 28\cdot0.531441\cdot 0.01=0.14

The hypotenuse of a 45 -45° -90° triangle measures 18 cm. What is the length of one leg of the triangle?
sdas [7]
<h2>Steps</h2>

So the 45-45-90 triangle is considered to be a "special triangle" and has a rule with it. If the legs are x, then the hypotenuse is x√2. Since we know that the hypotenuse is 18, this means we can set up our equation as such:

x\sqrt{2} =18

From here we can solve for x. Firstly, divide both sides by √2.

x=\frac{18}{\sqrt{2}}

Next, we want to simplify this expression and to do that we first have to rationalize the denominator. With the right side, multiply the numerator and denominator by √2:

\frac{18}{\sqrt{2}}*\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{18\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\\\x=\frac{18\sqrt{2}}{2}

Next, divide:

x=9\sqrt{2}

<h2>Answer</h2>

<u>In short, the length of one leg of the triangle is 9√2 cm.</u>

A financial advisor tells you that you can make your child a millionaire if you just start saving early. You decide to put an eq
Blababa [14]

Answer:

$12159 per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

If I invest $x each year at the simple interest of 7.5%, then the first $x will grow for 35 years, the second $x will grow for 34 years and so on.

So, the total amount that will grow after 35 years by investing $x at the start of each year at the rate of 7.5% simple interest will be given by

x( 1 + \frac{35 \times 7.5}{100}) + x( 1 + \frac{34 \times 7.5}{100}) + x( 1 + \frac{33 \times 7.5}{100}) + ......... + x( 1 + \frac{1 \times 7.5}{100})

= 35x + \frac{x \times 7.5}{100} [35 + 34 + 33 + ......... + 1]

= 35x + \frac{x \times 7.5}{100} [\frac{1}{2} (35) (35 + 1)]

{Since sum of n natural numbers is given by \frac{1}{2} (n)(n + 1)}

= 35x + 47.25x

= 82.25x

Now, given that the final amount will be i million dollars = $1000000

So, 82.25x = 1000000

⇒ x = $12,158. 05 ≈ $12159

Therefore. I have to invest $12159 per year. (Answer)

On the first day of a family road trip, Kai's family travels 365 miles.
Gekata [30.6K]
They traveled 292 miles on day two.

Known: On the first day they traveled 365 and on the second they traveled 20% less.

Solution:

If they traveled 20% less on the second day, that means they traveled 80% of the distance they traveled the first day.

365 miles * .8 = 292.

You could also solve this as:
20% of 365 is 73 miles
365 * .2 = 73.
So they traveled 73 less miles on the second day.
365 miles on the first day - 73 miles less on the second day = 292 miles.

I hope this helps!
