Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The length can be found by setting up a proportion. If the width is reduced by some ratio, then the length will share the same ratio.

3 / 8 = x / 10 Multiply both sides by 10.

3 * 10 / 8 = x Multiply first

30/8 = x Divide next. You don't need to do it in this order.

3 6/8 Simplify

3 3/4 Give another choice

3.75

The length = 3.75 inches

If none of these are correct, please leave a note with your choices.

(x - 2)²(x+1)

(x-2)(x-2)

multiply the two brackets together

(x)(x)=x^2

(x)(-2)=-2x

(-2)(x)=-2x

(-2)(-2)=4

x^2-2x-2x+4

x^2-4x+4

(x^2-4x+4)(x+1)

multiply the brackets together

(x^2)(x)=x^3

(x^2)(1)=x^2

(-4x)(x)=-4x^2

(-4x)(1)=-4x

A drug trial is testing the effectiveness of two drugs. If 50 patients are given Drug A, 20 patients are given Drug B, and 100 p

Vsevolod [243]

So, to find the answer you'd first add up how many patients you have:
20+50+100 = 170.
In a fraction your total would go on the bottom. Then you'd take how many patients are taking a real drug, which is represented by 20+50 = 70. This number would go on top.

So, the probability of a patient NOT getting a placebo is 70/170. Simplified would be 7/17.

The answer is D. 7/17.

A.) write an equation in slope intercept form for the total cost of any number of tickets at 7 tickets for $5.

marta [7]

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b

7 tickets for $5 means that 1 ticket costs 5/7 dollars

So for part a, the slope intercept form would be:

$y = \frac{5}{7}x$

where x is the number of tickets, and y is the price.

For part b)

The slope intercept form is:
$y = 25x$

where x is the number of all you can ride wristbands you buy, and y is the total price.
