Last choice 1 9/50

118/100 =

(2 × 59)/(22 × 52) =

((2 × 59) ÷ 2) / ((22 × 52) ÷ 2) =

59/(2 × 52) =

59/50

Then

59 ÷ 50 = 1 and remainder = 9 =>

59 = 1 × 50 + 9 =>

59/50 =

(1 × 50 + 9) / 50 =

1 + 9/50 =

1 9/50

The length of a rectangle is 3 cm greater than its width. The perimeter is 24 cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The width is 4.5, and the length is 7.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the perimeter is 24 cm, and the length is 3 cm greater than the width. We know that the perimeter = l*w. This info gives us an equation:

24 = (x + 3)*2 + x * 2. The 24 is the perimeter, and x is the width, so l is x + 3. Now we just have to solve for x.

24 = (x + 3)*2 + x * 2 | Simplify the Parenthesis

24 = 2x + 6 + x * 2 | Subtract 6 from both sides

18 = 2x + x * 2 | x * 2 is 2x

18 = 2x + 2x | 2x + 2x = 4x

18 = 4x | Now we divide by 4

4.5 = x. This mean the width is 4.5, and the length is 4.5 + 3, or 7.5. We can plug these into the original formula to confirm.

24 = 7.5*2 + 4.5*2, 24 = 15 + 9, 24 = 24.

Answer:

The probability that it would contain at least 6 letters is: 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above,

We know that there are 8 planet that was given.

Mercury 7 letters

Venus 5 letters

Earth 5 letters

Mars 4 letters

Jupiter 7 letters

Saturn 6 letters

Uranus 6 letters

Neptune. 7 letters

Therefore,

P(at least 6 letters) + P( Less than 6 letters) = 1

P (at least 6 letters) + P (3 planet) = 1

P (at least 6 letters) + ( 3/8) = 1

P(at least 6 letters) = 1 - (3/8)

= 5/8
