It would be 23 and 24! YOU'RE WELCOME :)
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of a student winning is 1/4.
The probability of a prize being selected is 1/3.
The probability of Gail winning a scarf is 1/4 × 1/3 = 1/12.
The probability of Simon winning is 1/4.
The probability of either is 1/12 + 1/4 = 1/3.
Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of "another side." Then "one side" is ...
2x -10 . . . . . . 10 feet shorter than twice another side
The sum of these two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is ...
x + (2x -10) = 14 . . . . . two sides are half the perimeter
3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
(2x -10) = 2·8 -10 = 6 . . . . find "one side"
We have found "one side" to be 6 feet long, and "another side" to be 8 feet long. The shorter side is 6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(-2, 6)
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
<u>Algebra I</u>
- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
- Solving systems of equations by graphing
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define systems</u>
4x - 2y = -20
7x + 2y = -2
<u>Step 2: Rewrite systems</u>
4x - 2y = -20
- Add 2y to both sides: 4x = 2y - 20
- Divide 4 on both sides: x = 1/2y - 5
<u>Step 3: Redefine systems</u>
x = 1/2y - 5
7x + 2y = -2
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 7(1/2y - 5) + 2y = =-2
- Distribute 7: 7/2y - 35 + 2y = -2
- Combine like terms: 11/2y - 35 = -2
- Add 35 to both sides: 11/2y = 33
- Isolate <em>y</em>: y = 6
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define original equation: 7x + 2y = -2
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: 7x + 2(6) = -2
- Multiply: 7x + 12 = -2
- Subtract 12 on both sides: 7x = -14
- Divide 7 on both sides: x = -2
<u>Step 6: Graph systems</u>
<em>Check the system.</em>
