P = s + (s + 5) + (s + 5) This represents the two sides that are 5 inches longer than the base (s + 5) and the base (s).
Simplifying.
100 = 3s + 10
subtract 10 from both sides
 90 = 3s
divide both sides by 3
30 = s
base = 30
sides = 35

CHECK 30 + 35 + 35 = 100

A box contains four red two white and three green marbles all of which are the same size two marbles are selected one after from
emmasim [6.3K]

The probability that the marbles selected are of the same colour is; 5/18

<h3>Probability of outcome</h3>

The probability that the marbles are the same colour includes:

  • The probability of 2 reds, 2 whites, 2 greens.

The total number of marbles = 9 marbles.

Since, the selection is without replacement;

The probability of selecting same colour marbles is;

  • {4/9×3/8} + {2/9×1/8} + {3/9×2/8}

The probability of selecting same colour marbles is therefore;

  • 12/72 + 2/72 + 6/72

  • = 5/18

1/3 (6y - 9) = -2y + 13
dlinn [17]

Answer: 3,75 ( 15/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 (6y - 9) = -2y + 13

6y/3  - 9/3  = - 2y + 13

2y - 2 = - 2y + 13

2y + 2y = 13 + 2

4y = 15

y = 15/4

y = 3,75
