You need to equate the two expressions to get the value of x. That is 3x - 5 = x + 3 and solve for x, you will get x = 4. Then get the length of line ZB and line BA by substituting the value of x you've got; hence line ZB = 3(4) - 5 = 7 and line BA = 4 + 3 = 7. Add the two lines to form a single line ZA, that is 7 + 7 = 14. So the answer is D.14
In first diameter=8,In second diameter=2/3,
P(over 6 ft) = 8/27
P(good aim) = 7/27
P(over 6 ft of good aim) = 8/27 + 7/27 = 15/27 = 5/9
A factor of 30 is chosen at random. What is the probability, as a decimal, that it is a 2-digit number?
The positive whole-number factors of 30 are:
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15 and 30.
So, there are 8 of them. Of these, 3 have two digits. Writing each factor on a slip of paper, then putting the slips into a hat, and finally choosing one without looking, get that
P(factor of 30 chosen is a 2-digit number) = number of two-digit factors ÷ number of factors
