There would be 60 pages in the book totally because you would set 40/x=2/3 and solve for x.

40/x=2/3

2x=120

x=60

What is the probability that a point chosen at random in the triangle is also in the blue square?

matrenka [14]

The probability that a point chosen at random in the triangle is also in the blue square can be calculated using geometrical definition of the probability:

$Pr=\dfrac{\text{desired area}}{\text{total area}}.$

1. Find the total area of the triangle:

$A_{total}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 6\cdot 9=27\ in^2.$

2. Find the desired area of the square:

$A_{desired}=3\cdot 3=9\ in^2.$

Then the probability is

$Pr=\dfrac{9}{27}=\dfrac{1}{3}.$

Answer: correct choice is B

Answer: number 3 is 32 number 4 is 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:You see in number 3 it says a millipede has 14 more legs than a caterpillar. Also it states the total of the legs are 46. This means you must subtract. 46-14 is equal to 32. And for number 4 it states the total time of all her classes are 1 hour and 10 minutes. The yoga class is 30 minutes longer. This means you must subtract those 30 minutes from the 1 hour and 10 minutes. 1 hour and 10 minutes- 30 minutes is equal to 40 minutes. This is the answer.

Hope this helps!!
