I divided 5 by 9 and multiplied it by 100 to get the percentage for the probability the horse will win. I got 55.55%. I subtracted 55.55 from 100 and got 44.45% chance of not winning the race.
Answer:
I believe the answer is x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>3x</em> and<em> 4x-1 </em> are corresponding sides and so are <em>14</em> and <em>18</em>.
You cross multiply with the smaller triangle lengths at the top.
3x/(4x-1)= 14/18
Cross multiply to get
18(3x)= 14(4x-1)
54x=56x-14
Subtract 54x on the other side and add 14 to the other (or subtract 56x to the other side)
you get 14=2x and divide 14 by 2 to get x=7
Multiply 1300 mm by 800 mm to get 1040000 mm. Then convert this to meters. 1 meter=1000 mm. Therefore, 1040000 mm is the same as 1040 meters.
