x = longer section
y = shorter section
x + y = 109
x = 2y + 10
so we sub in eq 2 into eq 1
2y + 10 + y = 109
3y + 10 = 109
3y = 109 - 10
3y = 99
y = 99/3
y = 33 <=== shorter section is 33 cm
x = 2y + 10
x = 2(33) + 10
x = 66 + 10
x = 76 <=== longer section is 76 cm
Answer:
x = ±1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2-1/4=0
Add 1/4 to each side
x^2 -1/4+1/4 = 0+1/4
x^2 = 1/4
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(1/4)
x = ±1/2
Answer:
c. 0.17
Step-by-step explanation:
The bag have 4 + 2 + 6 = 12 balls.
There are 2 red marbles, in 12, the probability to take one red is 2/12. Is important to remember that the first marble was replaced before the second outcome, so the chance for the second is also 2/12:
2/12 = 1/6 = 0.1666 ≈ 0.17
