zhenek [66]

Answer:

Total distance from Mr. West to dolphin $=27\frac{4}{5}\ meters$

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of cliff on which Mr. West is standing above the surface of ocean = $25 \frac{1}{5} \ meters$

Mr. West spot the dolphin under the water at a depth of = $2\frac{3}{5} \ meters$

∴ Total distance from Mr. West to dolphin= $(25 \frac{1}{5}+2\frac{3}{5})\ meters$

Adding mixed numbers

$(25 \frac{1}{5}+2\frac{3}{5})$

Adding whole numbers first.

$=25+2+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{5}\\=27+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{5}$

Adding fractions by taking LCD.

$=27+\frac{1+3}{5}\\=27+\frac{4}{5}\\=27\frac{4}{5}\ meters$

Perimeter of a rectangle is 15x+17y if the length is 7/2x+7y then find the width of the rectangle

bogdanovich [222]

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula,

$P=2l+2w$

We substitute,

$P=15x+17y$

and

$l=\frac{7}{2}x+7y$

into the above formula to obtain the expression,

$15x+17y=2(\frac{7}{2}x+7y)+2w$

$15x+17y=7x+14y+2w$

We now group the x and y terms on the Left Hand Side of the equation to get.

$15x-7x+17y-14y=2w$

$8x+7y=2w$

We now divide through by 2 to get,

$4x+\frac{7}{2}y=w$

Therefore the width of the rectangle is

$4x+\frac{7}{2}y$

There are 16 marbles in a bag 12 of them are blue and 4 are yellow. what is the probability of picking a blue marble then a yell

Art [367]

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

the prob that you will pick a blue marble would be 12/16, easy.

then the prob of picking a yellow marble after that would be 4/15 since one marble is already missing. multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction. so 12 x 4 and 16 x 15 to get 48/240. then divide each by 48 to get 1/5.
