Formula for perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + W)
let the number be x
width = 2x + 8
length = 3(2x + 8)
substitute respectively
96 = 2 (2x + 8 + 3(2x + 8)) open the bracket
96 = 2 ( 2x + 8 + 6x + 24) collect like terms
96 = 2 (8x + 32) open the bracket
96 = 16x + 64
collect like terms
96 - 64 = 16x
32 = 16x
divide both sides by 16
32/16 = 16x/16
2 = x
therefore, the width = 2x + 8 = 2(2) + 8 = 4 + 8 = 12.
and the length = 3(2x + 8) = 6x + 24 = 6(2) + 24 = 12 + 24 = 36.
Answer:
1194 students last year
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement tells us ...
98% × (students last year) = 1170
Dividing by 98%, we get ...
1170/0.98 = (students last year) = 1193.88 ≈ 1194
___
<em>Check</em>
1170/1194 = 0.979899... ≈ 0.98 = 98%
Answer:
(a) The largest square side is 24 inches
(b) No. of pieces are 14
Step-by-step explanation:
As per the question:
The dimensions of the fabric are 
(a)To calculate the side length of the largest square piece, we need to find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the dimensions as:


Therefore,
The GCF of the dimensions = 
Therefore, the largest side of a square that can be cut from the fabric is 24 inches.
(b) The no. of pieces of 24 inches that can be cut from the fabric can be given as:
No. of pieces = 
No. of pieces =
= 14
Answer:
do the work on your calculator to double check yourself :)
Answer:
0.006369
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a test consists of 10 multiple choice questions, each with five possible answers, one of which is correct.
By mere guessing p = probability for a right answer = 1/5 =0.20
There are two outcomes and each question is independent of the other.
X no of questions right is Bin (10,0.20)
the probability that the student will pass the test
= prob of getting more than 60%
=
=0.006369
