The answer is 2/5.

There is an 8/20 chance that the next person will receive a window seat. You simplify that probability to get your answer. 8/20 becomes 2/5. So the answer is 2/5.

Steven has $150. John has J dollars. Steven has 30 less than 2 times the amount John has. How much does John have?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

J = 90

John has 90 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find how much money John has. To find how much J equals we need to break it down.

We already know that Steven has 150 dollars. We also know that he has 30 less than two times the amount John has.

Steven has 30 less than two times the amount John has.

So 150 + 30 = 180

180 is two times the amount John has.

Because 180 is two times the amount John has we need to divide by two.

180 ÷ 2 = 90.

J = 90. Therefore John has 90 dollars.

This question was tricky! I hope I helped a little! Have a great day!!

2/3=1.2/x solve for x
Anvisha [2.4K]

First isolate x by multiplying by x on both sides.  It will look like this:

(2/3)x=1.2

Then devise by (2/3) on both sides to get:

x= 1.2/(2/3)

The easiest way to get this is plug that into a calculator and get the answer:

x=1.8

Could you guys help me find the area of these please? i don't understand how to do this
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

for 9, the answer is 246.49

Step-by-step explanation:

This is area of a circle correct?

The formula is PI x radius squared.

3.14 x the radius, which is 5, squared

I am re-editing this

so sorry the answer is actually 78.54

The reason why it is 78.54 is that you need to square the radius before multiplying with PI.

What is the lateral surface area of the solid? Assume the top and bottom of
timama [110]

Check the picture below.

so the lateral area will be just the area of the sides, namely excluding the bases at top and bottom, thus

\stackrel{\textit{\LARGE Lateral Area}}{\stackrel{\textit{front and back}}{2(4)(5)}~~ + ~~\stackrel{\textit{left and right}}{2(4)(7)}}\implies 40~~ + ~~56\implies 96~cm^2
