     162
   +207
=   369
     
      
Okay, so it says he descends 285 feet after he's climbed 369 feet. That means he needs to descend a bit more to reach 453 feet, which we'll just call 0 for now. First, we need to do some subtraction:

  369
- 285
=  84  

Okay, we know he needs to descend 84 feet to get to his starting point.
So your answer is C

P=2L+2W<br><br>solve for L <br>do the entire equation
VashaNatasha [74]
HEY THEIR!!

Taking commen 2 in RHS
p = 2 (L+W )

Divide by 2 on both sides.
p/2 = L+W

Subtract W on both sides.
p/2 - W = L

or L = p/2- W

Fraz is running a science fair experiment where mice run through a maze with 4 turns. At each turn, the mouse can take a right o
kherson [118]

Answer:

the probability is 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways in which the mouse can move in the 4 turns is calculated using the rule of multiplication as:

<u>       2           </u>* <u>            2            </u> * <u>             2             </u>* <u>         2           </u> = 16

  1st turn              2nd turn               3rd turn               4th turn

Because the mouse can take two options at every turn, right or left.

Now, from the 16 possibilities of movements, a mouse will find an exit in just two options:

1. right-right-left-left

2. left-right-right-left

So, the probability that a mouse will find an exit is:

P=\frac{2}{16}=0.125

Because, there are 16 possibilities and a mouse will find an exit using 2 of them.
