Answer:

a = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In an equation our aim is to find the value of what we are looking for as well as keeping the equation balanced. For example if we took away 8 only from one side then the equation would change so it's an important rule to keep in mind when solving equations, that you need to keep both sides of the equation the same.

4 (2 + a) = 24

→ Expand the brackets

8 + 4a = 24

→ Minus 8 from both sides to isolate 4a

4a = 16

→ Divide both sides by 4 to isolate a and therefore find the value of a

a = 4

→ We can substitute a = 4 back into 4 (2 + a) = 24 to see if we have the correct solution, if we end with the same number on both sides then a =4 is correct.

4 (2 + a) = 24

4 (2 + 4) = 24

4 × 6 = 24

24 = 24

So a = 4 is correct

4 (2

irakobra [83]

Answer:

  3 ft by 7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Try the solutions and find the one that works.

  3.5 × 6 — area OK, perimeter = 19 ft

  4 × 6 — area = 24 ft², perimeter OK

  3 × 7 — area OK, perimeter OK

  3.5 × 7 — area 24.5 ft², perimeter 21 ft

___

The perimeter is the sum of the four side lengths; the area is the product of two adjacent side lengths.

Choice test you know the answer to the third question is not b or c you sure about a,d,or e. If you guess, what is the probabili
MrRissso [65]

If there were just one question, then the probability of guessing correctly would be 1/3.

Since all the answers are independent (the answer to one question has no bearing on the answers to the others), then this is the case with each question, so the chances of guessing all answers correctly is 1/3 × 1/3 × 1/3 = 1/27. Independent choices are linked by multiplication.

To have exactly 2 answers correct, we have to think of which one is wrong: there are 3 questions and any single one could be wrong. The probability that the first question is wrong is 2/3. And we know that the probabilities of the other two being right is 1/3 each, so the probability of just the first question being wrong and the others right is 2/3 × 1/3 × 1/3 = 2/27. But this is just one of the three cases: 1/3 × 2/3 × 1/3 and 1/3 × 1/3 × 2/3 also both equal 2/27 each. So here we add the cases together: 2/27 + 2/27 + 2/27 = 6/27 = 2/9. So the answer to part (a) of your question is 2/9.

To solve (b) Consider that (b) is the same as (a) with "all answers right" added in. So you can simply add answer (a) to the chance of guessing all answers correctly.

To solve (c) it might help you to think of the equivalent problem: what is the probability of getting 0 correct plus the probability of getting 1 correct?
