7/4*1/5= 7/20
always remember that in math the word "of" always means you need to multiply.
so the answer is 7/20
125 minutes. 175 divided by seven is 25 and 25 multiplied by 5 is 125
Hello!
If there is 4 faces and 1/4 chance of any side end up face down, we just have to decrease one chance, so, the chance of the face "2" does not end up face down is equal the sum of the chances of the others faces end up face down, so, we have: 3/4.
Hugs!
Answer:
x(6 + 15y)
Step-by-step explanation:
In this instance, you can divide by a factor of x.
6x/x = 6
15xy/x = 15y
Therefore, we are left with 6 + 15y.
Step-by-step answer:
Given:
A triangle
Perimeter = 60 cm
longest side = 4* shortest side (x)
Solution:
longest side = 4x
shortest side = x
third (intermediate side = 60 -x -4x = 60-5x
The triangle inequality specifies that the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the longest side to form a triangle. Hence
x + y > 4x
x + 60-5x > 4x
60 - 4x > 4x
8x < 60
x < 60/8 = 7.5, or
x < 7.5
Therefore to form a triangle, x (shortest side) must be less than 7.5 cm.
Examine the options: both 7 and 5 are both less than 7.5 cm.
40, 30 and 25 all have a problem because the longest side (4 times longer) will exceed the perimeter of 60.
Now also examine cases where 4x is NOT the longest side, in which case we need
4x>=y
or
4x >= 60-5x
9x >=60
x >= 6.67
so x=5 will not qualify, because 4x will no longer be the longest side.
The only valid option is x=7 cm
The side lengths for x=7 and x=5 are, respectively,
(7, 25, 28)
5, 20, 35 (in which case, the longest side is no longer 4x=20, so eliminated)
