A, E and B lie on a straight line segment. C, D and B lie on a straight line segment. BD = 3m, CD = 12m and AB = 19m. Work out the length of BE. Give your answer as a decimal. please help

3.8m

Step-by-step explanation:

If A, E and B lie on a straight line segment. C, D and B lie on a straight line segment, based on their similarities,

AB/CB = BE/BD

Given

BD = 3m,

CD = 12m

AB = 19m.

CB = CD+BD

CB = 12+3 = 15m

On substituting

19/15 = BE/3

Cross multiply

15BE = 19×3

15BE = 57

BE = 57/15

BE = 3.8m

Hence the length of BE is 3.8m

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.
