<span>Let x = the width
:
It says,"The length of a rectangle is 4 less than 3 times the width." write that as:
L = 3x - 4
:
If the perimeter is 40, find the dimensions of the rectangle.
:
We know: 2L + 2W = 40
:
Substitute (3x-4) for L and x for W
2(3x-4) + 2x = 40
:
6x - 8 + 2x = 40; Multiplied what's inside the brackets
:
6x + 2x = 40 + 8; do some basic algebra to find x; (added 8 to both sides)

:
8x = 48
:
x = 48/8
:
x = 6 which is the width
:
It said that L = 3x - 4, therefore:
L = 3(6) - 4
L = 18 - 4
L = 14; is the length
:
Check our solutions in the perimeter:
2(14) + 2(6) =
28 + 12 = 40</span>

Length= 3x-4
width= x
perimeter= 72 feet
2(3x-4)+2x=72
6x-8+2x=72
8x-8=72
8x=80
x=10
The width is 10 and the length is 26.

Hope this helps!

A coordinator will select 6 songs from a list of 9 songs to compose an event's musical entertainment lineup. How many different

g100num [7]

Answer:

84 different lineups are possible

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the songs are chosen is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this question:

6 musics from a set of 9. So

$C_{9,6} = \frac{9!}{6!(9-6)!} = 84$

84 different lineups are possible

If synthetic division reveals a zero, why should we try that value again as a possible solution?

Polynomials can have double roots, in fact they're pretty common. if you get a reasonable zero it costs very little time to try it again for a double root. answer is the second choice

The most appropriate choice for square root will be given by-

$\sqrt{12}$ lies between 3 and 4

What is square root of a number?

Number raised to the power $\frac{1}{2}$ is the square root of the number.

Here

$\sqrt{12}\\ 2\sqrt{3}\\ 2*1.732\\3.464\\$

3.464 lies between 3 and 4

$\sqrt{12}$ lies between 3 and 4

Answer:

The most suitable experimental simulation to find the probability of getting the six toys is by rolling the dice and recording the occurrences.

Step-by-step explanation:

As there are a total of 6 different dinosaurs, the probability of each of them is given as

P(X=one dinosaur)=1/6

In order to design an experiment, as the data is completely random and unknown, thus the experiment is designed such that the probability of individual option is 1/6.

In this regard the most suitable option is rolling a dice, numerous times and recording the occurrences accordingly.
