Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

7/3 and 14/3 inches

Discussion:

Let P1 = "Piece 1" and "P2 = Piece 2", Then P2 = 2 * P1 and

P1 + P2 = 7       => as P2 = 2 P1

P1 + 2P1 = 7      =>

3P1 = 7             => divide both sides by 7

P1 = 7/3


Then P2 = 2 P1 - 2* (7/3) = 14/3

Thank you,

MrB

According to the graph, what is the experimental probability of selecting the letter E?
Daniel [21]

The experimental probability of letter E is: 3/25

Step-by-step explanation:

The given diagram is the number of outcomes for each letter is given

We have to find the total number of outcomes for finding the experimental probability of letter E

So,

Total outcomes = n(S) = 5+12+8+10+6+9 = 50

Number of outcomes for Letter E = n(E) = 6

So the experimental probability will be:

P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(S)}\\\\=\frac{6}{50}\\\\= \frac{3}{25}

Hence,

The experimental probability of letter E is: 3/25

Suppose that 3 is a factor of a, a is a divisor of 12, and a is positive. What is the number of possible values of a?
Zina [86]
Answer: the number of possible values of a are 3 and 6

Explanation:
Since a is a divisor of 12
Then let’s see what are the divisor for 12
12= 6 x 2
12= 3 x 4
And we know that 3 is a factor of a
So if a was 3 then 3/3 is exactly 1
And if a was 6 then 6/3 is exactly 2 with no remainder

And 3 and 6 are also the divisor of 12
12/6=2
12/3=4
So a should be 3 and 6
