12 + 3x = 30 // what is x?
3x = 18
x = 6
Answer:
The length of the park is 175 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us solve the question
∵ The perimeter of a rectangular park is 500 feet
∵ The formula of the perimeter of the rectangle is P = 2(L + W)
∵ L is the length and W is the width
→ Equate the rule of the perimeter by 500
∴ 2(L + W) = 500
→ Divide both sides by 2
∴ L + W = 250 ⇒ (1)
∵ The length of the park is 100 feet longer than the width
→ That means L is W plus 100
∴ L = W + 100 ⇒ (2)
→ Substitute L in (1) by (2)
∵ W + 100 + W = 250
→ Add the like terms
∵ (W + W) + 100 = 250
∴ 2W + 100 = 250
→ Subtract 100 from both sides
∵ 2W + 100 - 100 = 250 - 100
∴ 2W = 150
→ Divide both sides by 2
∴ W = 75
→ Substitute the value of W in (2) to find L
∵ L = 75 + 100 = 175
∴ The length of the park is 175 feet
Answer:
Answer is 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The text implies that the number of traffic accidents determines the number of ambulances required on the road. Hence, 1 traffic accident requires 1 ambulance.
The time slot and time of day remain same in both the text and the question.
The average or mean number of accidents is 1.1
QUESTION: What then is the probability that there is need for exactly 2 ambulances on that road and in that time frame?
In other words, what is the probability that there'll be 2 accidents on that road and in that time frame?
Since the mean number of accidents is 1.1, 2 is above the mean.
Probability of 1.1 accidents is 1, since that's the mean (expected value).
Probability of 2 accidents is 1/2 which is = 0.5
Percent is parts out of 100 so
45%=45/100=9/20
'of' means multiply
18 =9/20 times something
multiply both sides by 20/9 to clear fraction
360/9=something
40=something
the value is 40
