Answer:

v=2 s=5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) v=volleyball s=soccer

s × v = 7

" the soccer (s) practice lasts 1 hour (1) more than (+) twice as long (2) as the volleyball (v) practice; this simplifies to: s = 1 + 2v

b) substitute equation for soccer for s

(1 + 2v) + v = 7

solve for v

1 + 3v = 7 (2v + v = 3v; that's where the 3v comes from)

we subtract 1 from both sides

3v = 6

we divide 3 from both sides

v=2

solve for s

since we know what v equals, we substitute it in

s + 2 =7

subtract 2 from both sides

s = 5

a regular pentagon-based pyramid has 5 faces which are equilateral triangles the perimeter of it's net is 70cm what is the perim

netineya [11]

Answer:

35cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The net of a regular pentagon has 10 sides.

Since each of the faces are equilateral triangles, the side lengths are equal.

Therefore:

Length of each side of the net = 70/10 =7cm

Therefore, the base is a regular pentagon of side length 7cm.

The perimeter of the base of the pyramid = 5 X 7

=35cm

The perimeter of the base of the pyramid is 35cm.

Blood type AB is the rarest blood type, occurring in only 4% of the population in the United States. In Australia, only 1.5% of

Naddik [55]

Answer:

There is a 27.62% probability that exactly 2 of the U.S. residents have blood type AB.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each U.S. resident, there are only two outcomes possible. Either they have blood type AB, or they do not. This means that we can solve this problem using binomial probability distribution concepts.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

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

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

And $\pi$ is the probability of X happening.

In this problem, we have that:

50 U.S residents are sampled, so $n = 50$

4% of the U.S population has blood type AB, so $p = 0.04$ .

What is the probability that exactly 2 of the U.S. residents have blood type AB?

This is P(X = 2). So:

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{50,2}.(0.04)^{2}.(0.96)^{48} = 0.2762$

There is a 27.62% probability that exactly 2 of the U.S. residents have blood type AB.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 36m. If its length is increased by 1m and the width is increased by 2m, its area will increase b

maw [93]

Answer:

80 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information lets you write two equations involving length (x) and width (y).

2(x +y) = 36 . . . . the perimeter is 36 m
(x+1)(y+2) -xy = 30 . . . . increasing the length and width increases area

The second of these equations simplifies to another linear equation, giving a system of linear equations easily solved.

xy +y +2x + 2 -xy = 30

2x +y = 28 . . . . . . . subtract 2

Dividing the first equation by 2 gives

x +y = 18

and subtracting this from the above equation gives ...

(2x +y) -(x +y) = 28 -18

x = 10

Then

y = 18 -10 = 8

The area of the original rectangle is xy = 10·8 = 80 m^2.
