12.4 / 6.2 = 2

so other side of enlarged rectangle = 1.8 x 2 = 3.6

Perimeter of enlarged rectangle = 2(3.6 + 12.4) = 32

Answer: 32 feet

------------------------

Another way to do:

12.4 / 6.2 = 2

SF = 2

The original rectangle has a perimeter of 16

Perimeter of the enlarged rectangle = 16 x 2 = 32

Answer: 32 feet

Part A
To estimate this, we should first look at our fractions and see if they can be combined to form a whole number. In this case, $\frac{3}{5}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$ equal approximately 1. We can add this "1" to the other to full gallons to estimate that the painter needs about 3 gallons.

Part B
To find the exact amount, we should first change the mixed numbers to improper fractions. We do this by multiplying the denominator by the whole number, adding the numerator, and placing that value over the denominator.

$1 \frac{3}{5} \\ \\ (5*1)+3 =8 \\ \\ \frac{8}{5} \\ \\ \\ \\ 1 \frac{2}{3} \\ \\ (3*1)+2=5 \\ \\ \frac{5}{3} 
$

Now, we need to find the least common denominator. This is the lowest value that both denominators will divide evenly into. In this case, that number is 15.

Next, we should multiply both fractions so that the denominator is that number. Remember that we must also multiply the numerator for the fraction to remain equivalent to its original value.

$\frac{8}{5} *3 = \frac{24}{15} \\ \\ \frac{5}{3} *5 = \frac{25}{15}$

Now, we can simply add our numerators.

$25+24=49$

We know that he needs $\frac{49}{15}$ gallons of paint, but this is not in the most simplified format. To simplify, we need to turn our improper fraction back to a mixed number. To do this, we need to divide our numerator by the denominator to create our whole number, and the remainder becomes our new numerator.

$\frac{49}{15} \\ \\ 49 / 15 = 3(Remainder: 4) \\ \\ 3\frac{4}{15}$

Using that logic, we can see that the painter needs exactly $3 \frac{4}{15}$ gallons of paint.

Factorise 5x 2 + 20x

pychu [463]

Answer:

5x^2 + 20x = 5x(x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to factorize;

5x^2 + 20x

To do this, we start by writing the common factors

The common actor that we can see which is in the form of the gcf of both is 5x

Thus, the factorization will be;

5x^2 + 20x = 5x( x + 4)

ramone has 5 difficult questions left to answer on a multiple choice test. Each question has 3 choices. For the first 2 of these

olchik [2.2K]

1. a b c
2. a b c
3. a b c
4. a b c
5. a b c

then she eliminated 1 choice in 1 and 2, say as follows

1. b c
2. a b
3. a b c
4. a b c
5. a b c

Probability of answering correctly the first 2, and at least 2 or the remaining 3 is
P(answering 1,2 and exactly 2 of 3.4.or 5.)+P(answering 1,2 and also 3,4,5 )

P(answering 1,2 and exactly 2 of 3.4.or 5.)=
P(1,2,3,4 correct, 5 wrong)+P(1,2,3,5 correct, 4 wrong)+P(1,2,4,5 correct, 3 wrong)
also P(1,2,3,4 c, 5w)=P(1,2,3,5 c 4w)=P(1,2,4,5 c 3w )
so
P(answering 1,2 and exactly 2 of 3.4.or 5.)=3*P(1,2,3,4)=3*1/2*1/2*1/3*1/3*2/3=1/4*2/9=2/36=1/18

note: P(1 correct)=1/2
P(2 correct)=1/2
P(3 correct)=1/3
P(4 correct)=1/3
P(5 wrong) = 2/3

P(answering 1,2 and also 3,4,5 )=1/2*1/2*1/3*1/3*1/3=1/108

Ans: P= 1/18+1/108=(6+1)/108=7/108
