The length of the fencing needed for the dog run will be 76 feet

<h3>What is the length?</h3>

The measure of the size of any object or the distance between the two endpoints will be termed the length.

Given that:-

Area of Dog Run = 240

Length of Dog Run = 30

The solution will be done as below:-

Width of Dog Run = 30 - x

Area of Dog Run:  30 * (30 - x) = 240

240 / 30 = 30 - x

8 = 30 - x

x = 24

Width of Dog Run = 8

How many feet of fencing will George need for the dog run?

Perimeter of Dog Run = 2Length + 2Width

Perimeter of Dog Run = (2 * 30) + (2 * 8)

Perimeter of Dog Run = 60 + 16

The perimeter of Dog Run = 76

Therefore the length of the fencing needed for the dog run will be 76 feet

A cereal company is creating new boxes for its product. In order to display the boxes, the stores they sell to require that the
SashulF [63]

If the problem says "space", that usually means that they are talking about volume. The maximum length the box can be is 8.4 inches. To find volume, you do length * width * height. You know the length and height, as well as the volume. You can replace the width with "x". Your equation should be:

11.5 * 8.4 * x = 272.8

Then you can just solve for x by dividing both sides by (11.5 * 8.4). The answer should be about 2.82 inches.

Maria has a bag with 6 red marbles, 6 blue marbles, and 4 green marbles looking Maria picks one . She does not replace it and sh
Sati [7]

Answer: Hello there!

initially Maria has 6 red marbles, 6 blue marbles, and 4 green marbles.

You know that in the first pick, Maria gets a green marble ( this means that now there are 3 green marbles left)

Now we want to know the probability that she gets a red marble on the second pick.

Now there are 6 + 6 + 3 = 15 marbles in the bag, and 6 of them are red ones. Then the probability of getting one red is the number of red ones divided by the total amount ( which is the ratio of red marbles to total marbles)

this is 6/15.

now you can see that there is no 6/15 in the options, so we need to see which one is equivalent.

if we took the option C, 2/5, and multiply both denominator and numerator by 3, we get (3*2)/(3*5) = 6/15, then 2/5 and 6/15 are equivalents.

Then the correct answer is C.
