6 inches 
6 1/14 inches  
Since area is defined as length multiplied by width, this is a simple matter of division. I suspect this problem is more a matter of handling fractions, so to make things easier, convert the fractions to improper fractions in order to do the math, then convert to proper fractions after you've gotten the result. Since the area of each rectangle is 12 3/4, multiply 12 by 4 and then add 3 to get 51/4 as the area. Doing the same for the values 2 1/8 and 2 1/10 gives sizes of 17/8 and 21/10 for the widths respectively. So 
 51/4 / 17/8 = 51/4 * 8/17 = 408/68 = 6/1 = 6 
 51/4 / 21/10 = 51/4 * 10/21 = 510/84 = 85/14 = 6 1/14

The coordinates of the vertices of quadrilateral ABCD are A(-5, 1), B(-2,5), C(5, 3),
sladkih [1.3K]

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate a slope, we need to apply: m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

Applying formula to each slope:

m_{AB}=\frac{5-1}{-2-(-5)} = \frac{4}{3}  \\m_{BC}=\frac{3-5}{5-(-2)} =\frac{-2}{7}\\m_{CD}=\frac{-1-3}{2-5}=\frac{-4}{-3} =\frac{4}{3}

So, as you can see, there are equal pair of slopes, meaning that they are parallels, which<em> demonstrate that it's actually a quadrilateral figure.</em>

What's the answer to this math problem
GarryVolchara [31]
Total number of marbles:
75 + 50 + 100 + 25 = 250

Probability of selecting a red marble:
25/250 (since 25 out of 250 marbles are red)
Since the top and bottom of this fraction are both divisible by 25, we can go ahead and divide them both by 25, simplifying to 1/10.

Probability of selecting a green marble:
50/250
Simplifies to 2/10
Simplifies to 1/5.

Probability of selecting a blue or orange marble
(75+100)/250
175/250
Simplifies to 7/10.

To find the probability that each event occurs in order, simply multiply them all together.

\frac{1}{10}\times\frac{1}{5}\times\frac{7}{10}=\frac{1\times1\times7}{10\times5\times10}=\boxed{\frac{7}{500}}

— 7x — бу = — 15 Determine the intercepts of the line.
____ [38]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

— 7x — бу = — 15

To find the x intercept set y = 0 and solve for x

-7x - 0 = -15

-7x= -15

Divide by -7

-7x/-7 = -15/-7

x = 15/7

The x intercept is (15/7,0)

To find the y intercept set x = 0 and solve for y

o— бу = — 15

— бу= -15

Divide by -6

— бу/-6= -15/-6

у= 5/2

The y intercept is (0,5/2)
