Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

L = D + 28

⅓L = ⅘D

Solve the system of equations using elimination or substitution.  Using substitution:

⅓L = ⅘(L − 28)

Multiply both sides by 15:

5L = 12(L − 28)

Distribute:

5L = 12L − 336

Combine like terms:

336 = 7L

Divide:

L = 48

An open box is made from a 40​-cm by 80​-cm piece of tin by cutting a square from each corner and folding up the edges. The area
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the edge length of the square removed at each corner;

Hence the area of the base is:

A_b(80-2x)(40-2x)=2736\\\\3200-160x-80x+4x^2=2736\\\\\\4x^2-240x+3200=2736\\\\4x^2-240x+464=0\\\\x^2-60x+116=0

Using the quadratic equation formula, or completing the square, x, or length of a side of one of the squares is x=2 or x=58

#Given that x=58 is larger than 40cm, the side length is x=2

Find the probability of throwing a sum of 10 at least 9 times in 10 throws of a pair of fair dice.
jekas [21]
So the possible ways of throwing a sum of 10 is 4&6, 5&5, 6&4. All possible ways of throwing a pair of dice equal 36, so divide 3 by 36. Then, divide this number by 9 to get the possibility of it being at least 9 times, because the last throw doesn't affect it.
