Answer:
a) As sides of squares are always equal.
So,
BC=CD
2b+CF=a+b
CF= a+b-2b
CF= a-b
b) Area of rectangle CDEF= CDxCF
=(a+b)(a-b)
=(a²-b²)
Hope it helps :-)
Answer:
84 feet of ribbon is needed
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Ribbon is sold by the foot. If Heather is making 84 bows, how many feet of ribbon must she buy?
Explanation : If ribbon is sold by the foot, then if Heather is making 84 bows, then Heather would need 84 feet
To put in simple terms - 1 bow needs 1 foot of ribbon
(7+x)+x=15
I did trial and error to get x=4.
If you are asking when you divide ten into a number, remember this, anything that ends with a 0, it is divisible by 10.
Answer:
The probability is
≅ 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's analyze the question.
There are 15 students in the 8th grade.
The students are randomly placed into three different algebra classes of 5 students each.
We are looking for the probability that Trevor, Terry and Evan will be in the same algebra class.
One possible way to solve this question is to think about the product probability rule.
We can use it because we are in an equiprobable space. (And also the events are independent).
Let's set for example a class for Evan.
The probability that Evan will be in a class is 
Then for Terry there are
places out of
that puts Terry in the Evan's class.
We write 
Finally for Trevor there are
places out of the remaining
that puts Trevor in the same class with Evan and Terry.
Using the product rule we write :

The probability of the event is
≅
