Since one piece is four time the length <em>x, </em>we can represent that as 4x.

Thus making the equation:

4x+x=275

5x=275

x=55

4(55)=220

220+55=275

So, the length of the longer piece is 220 inches, and the length of the shorter piece is 55 inches.

MrMuchimi

Answer: {(MBV), (MBH) , (MEV) , (MEH) , (OBV), (OBH) , (OEV) , (OEH)}

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Sample space is a set that contains all the possible outcomes for an event.

For salad:

Choices for extra toppings (mushrooms, olives) =2

Choices for meats (bacon, eggs) =2

Choices for dressings (vinaigrette, honey mustard.)= 2

By Fundamental counting principal .

The number of different salads can be made= (Choices for extra toppings) x (Choices for meats ) x (Choices for dressings)

= 2 x 2 x 2 = 8

All the possible outcomes = (MBV), (MBH) , (MEV) , (MEH) , (OBV), (OBH) , (OEV) , (OEH)

Required Sample space would be : {(MBV), (MBH) , (MEV) , (MEH) , (OBV), (OBH) , (OEV) , (OEH)}
