To determine how many different types of shelves could be ordered, you will multiply all the numbers from each different aspect of the shelves to create all the possible combinations that could occur.

The reason for doing this has to do with the groupings that will occur using all three numbers.

4 x 3 x 6 = 72 

There are 72 different possibilities of shelves.

Step 2 :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

2.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using x as the denominator :

3 3 • x
3 = — = —————
1 x
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

2.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

2 - (3 • x) 2 - 3x
——————————— = ——————

Equation at the end of step 2 :

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :

4.1 Adding a whole to a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using x as the denominator :

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

4.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions

8 + 9 • x 9x + 8

Step 5 :

Adding fractions which have a common denominator :

5.1 Adding fractions which have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

(9x+8) - ((2-3x)) 12x + 6
————————————————— = ———————
x x
Step 6 :

Pulling out like terms :

6.1 Pull out like factors :

12x + 6 = 6 • (2x + 1)

Equation at the end of step 6 :

6 • (2x + 1)
———————————— = 0
x
Step 7 :

When a fraction equals zero :

7.1 When a fraction equals zero ...
Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

6•(2x+1)
———————— • x = 0 • x
x
Now, on the left hand side, the x cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :
6 • (2x+1) = 0

Equations which are never true :

7.2 Solve : 6 = 0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

kupik [55]

The probability of no boys being chosen will be 0.29.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.

Mr. Larsen's third-grade class has 22 students, 12 girls, and 10 boys.

Two students must be selected at random to be in the fall play.

Then the probability of no boys being chosen will be

Total event = ²²C₂ = 231

Favorable event = ¹²C₂ = 66

Then the probability will be

P = 66 / 231

P = 0.2857

P ≅ 0.29

A bedroom has a length of x+ 3 feet and a width of x-1 feet. Write a polynomial to express the area of the bedroom. Then calcula
jekas [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = x+3

Width = x-1

Area = l*b

where l is the length of the bedroom

and b is the breadth or width of the bedroom

The polynomial can be written as:

Area=(x+3)(x-1)

Now we will find the area of the room when x=10

First we will find the values of length and width.

Length = x+3

Length = 10+3 = 13

Width = x-1

Width = 10-1=9

Now put the values in the formula:

Area=l*b

Area=13*9

Area = 117 square feet....
