If C is a point between AB then we can write AC + CB = AB

Same way we can write tu + ub = tb
tu = 4x - 1 , ub = 2x - 1 and tb = 5x
So we can write it as

4x - 1+ 2x - 1 = 5x

6x - 2 = 5x

6x - 5x = 2

x = 2

So x is  = 2.

A stick has a length of $5$ units. The stick is then broken at two points, chosen at random. What is the probability that all th
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

4/25 = 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest stick must be between 0 and 5/3.  The probability that it is longer than 1 is therefore:

(5/3 − 1) / (5/3 − 0)

(2/3) / (5/3)

2/5

So the probability that both of the shortest sticks are longer than 1 is (2/5)² = 4/25.

liq [111]

Answer:

John received 10% of the overall votes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the number of votes John got  = m

So, the number of votes Vivienne received =   3 times (John's share )

 = 3  times m   =  3 m

Also, The number of Votes Nassim received = 2 times ( Vivienne's share)

2 x (3 m)   = 6 m

Total Votes in the grade 6  

= Votes received by { John + Vivienne + Nassim}

= m + (3 m) + (6 m) = 10 m

Hence, the total number of students who voted in grade 6  = 10 m

\textrm{The percentage of John's Votes }  = \frac{\textrm{Number of votes John received}}{\textrm{Total number of votes }}  \times 100

= \frac{m}{10m}  \times 100 = 10

or, The percentage of John's Votes  = 10%

Hence, John received 10% of the overall votes.
