I think it’s p=36 because you have to do the opposite on both sides..

So..
q=-12
P/-12=-3
+12 *12
P=36

P/q = -3
p/-12 = -3
(p/-12) * -12 = -3*-12
p = 36

Hope this helped!

Answer:

The probability it will land on green every time is $\frac{1}{27}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a spinner is used for which it is equally probable that the pointer will land on any one of six regions. Three of the regions are colored red, two are colored green, and one is colored yellow.

The pointer is spun three times.

<u>As we know that the probability of an event is described as;</u>

Probability of an event = $\frac{\text{Favorable number of outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$

Here, the favorable outcome is that the spinner will land on green every time.

So, the number of green regions = 2

Total number of regions = 3(red) + 2(green) + 1(yellow) = 6 regions

<em>Now, the probability it will land on green every time is given by;</em>

Probability = $\frac{2}{6}\times \frac{2}{6}\times \frac{2}{6}$

= $\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{3}$

= $\frac{1}{27}$

Hence, the probability it will land on green every time is $\frac{1}{27}$ .

The proper angle for a ladder is about 75 ∘ 75∘ from the ground. suppose you have a 14 foot ladder. how far from the house shoul

jonny [76]

We just use the sinus rule to calculate this

a / sin alpha = b / sin beta

Alpha is the 90 degree angle from the wall to the floor
beta is the angle from the top of the ladder to the wall,
wich is 90 degrees - 75 degrees (triangle has 180 degrees angles, one is 90 degrees), so beta = 15 degrees

14 foot / sin 90 = b / sin 15
sin 90 = 1
we move the sin15 over to the other side

14 foot x sin 15 = b
b = 3.62 foot

babymother [125]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

$x^4+xy^3+x^3+y^3\\\\=x^3*x+x*y^3+x^3+y^3\\\\=x(x^3+y^3)+x^3+y^3\\\\\boxed{=(x+1)(x^3+y^3)}\\$

Thank you
