Answer:
- square: 12 ft sides
- octagon: 6 ft sides
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be worked in your head.
If the perimeters of the square and regular octagon are the same, the side length of the 4-sided square must be the same as the length of 2 sides of the 8-sided octagon. Since the side of the square is 6 ft more than the side of the octagon, each side of the octagon must be 6 ft, and each side of the square must be 12 ft.
__
We can let s represent the side length of the octagon. Then we have ...
8s = perimeter of octagon
4(s +6) = perimeter of square
These are equal, so ...
4(s +6) = 8s
s +6 = 2s . . . . . . divide by 4
6 = s . . . . . . . . . . subtract s
The octagon has 6-ft sides; the square has 12-ft sides.
Answer:
the correct answer is d. -x + 3
To elaborate:
To do this problem, we assume that Mr. Sanchez is driving at a constant rate.
According to this information, he has driven 120 mi in 3 hr. To find how much he drives in 5 hr, we first have to find how many mi he drives in 1 hour. To do this, we divide 120 miles by 3 hours, since we assume that he managed to drive an equal amount in each hour.
120/3=40
Therefore Mr. Sanchez drove at a rate of 40 mph.
However, this isn't the final answer. 40 miles is the distance for one hour of driving. To find the distance for 5 hours, we have to multiply the distance by 5 as well.
40 times 5=200
In conclusion, Mr. Sanchez will drive 200 miles in 5 hours.
Answer:
Hence the probability that she paid cash is 0.105
Step-by-step explanation:
P(cash) = 0.3
P(credit card ) = 0.3
P(debit card ) = 0.4
P ( more than $50 | cash ) = 0.2
P (more than $50 | credit card ) =0.9
P (more than $ 50 |debit card ) = 0.6
P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) + P (more than $50 credit card ) * P(credit card ) + P (more than $ 50 |debit card )* P(debit card )
= 0.2 * 0.3 + 0.9 * 0.3 + 0.6* 0.4
= 0.57
P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) / P ( more than $50)
= 0.2* 0.3 / 0.57
= 0.105
