----------------------------------------------- 
                    1 yard 
--------------  
 1/5 yard                                           ------------------ 
                                                              7/10 yard
<span>The distance poles B and D= (1-1/5)=4/5 yard

</span>The distance poles B and E= BD+DE=4/5+7/10=(8+7)/10=15/10=3/2 yard

the answer is 3/2 yard (distance poles B and E)

Triangle weighs 3 grams Circle weighs 6 grams. Write an equation to represent each hanger. Let x represent the pentagon.
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Answer: 3.75 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the weight of the square is x.

The hanger is in balance so the left side is equal to the right side.

Equation therefore is:

Triangle + Square + 3 * circle = 5* square + circle

3 + x + (3 * 6) = 5x + 6

3 + x + 18 = 5x + 6

5x - x = 3 + 18 - 6

4x = 15

x = 15/4

x =  3.75 g

Xander spends most of his time with his 10 closest friends. he has known 4 of his 10 friends since kindergarten. if he is going
Mademuasel [1]

Probability that the first 2 of the friends to show up to the movie are friends he has known since kindergarten but the third not is 1/10

Total friends = 10

Friends from kindergarten = 4

Probability is the chance that a given event will occur. Probability of an event lies within 0 to 1

P(E) = Favourable outcomes / Total outcomes

Probability of getting 1st friend from kindergarten = 4/10

Probability of getting 2nd friend from kindergarten = 3/9

Probability of getting 3rd friend not from kindergarten = 6/8

Since all these probabilities are independent, We can use Multiplicative identity.  Thus,

Required probability is 4/10 * 3/9 * 6/8

= 1/10

Thus, Probability that the first 2 of the friends to show up to the movie are friends he has known since kindergarten but the third not is 1/10

Jessica buys a lamp that costs $35 and a table that costs $75.00. If the tax rate is 10%, what will be the total cost of the lam
shepuryov [24]
Hello there!

75 + 35 = 110

110 x 10% = 0.1

110 x 0.1 = 11 ( the 11 is your tax )

75 + 35 = 110

110 + 11 = 121

$121 

Hope this helped!
