Length= 2x-1. 2(7)-1=13
Width=X. =7

2x-1+2x-1+X+X=40
6x-2=40
Add 2
6x=42
Divide by 6
X=7

Factor 3/4 out of 3/4z + 6

Alenkasestr [34]

ANSWER

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 8 )$

EXPLANATION

We want to factor
$\frac{3}{4}$
out of

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6$

The first term is already having a factor of
$\frac{3}{4}$
The constant term which is the second term is not having a factor of
$\frac{3}{4}$
so we need to use a trick of multiplying and dividing by the same factor to obtain,

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} z + \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{6}{ \frac{3}{4} }$

We can now factor
$\frac{3}{4}$
out of the right hand side to obtain,

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + \frac{6}{ \frac{3}{4} } )$
Let us rewrite the right most fraction using the normal division symbol.

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 6 \div \frac{3}{4} )$

We simplify to obtain,

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 6 \times \frac{4}{3} )$

This further gives us,

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 2 \times 4 )$

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 8 )$

You spin the spinner and flip a coin. Find the probability of the compound event. The probability of spinning a prime number and

elixir [45]

The probability of spinning a prime number and not flipping heads will be given as follows:
P(Prime)*P(Tails)
P(Prime)=3/5
P(Tails)=1/2
Thus
P(Prime) and P(Tails)
=3/5×1/2
=3/10

A triangle has sides with lengths of 6 inches, 13 inches, and 17 inches. Is it a right triangle?

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Nope

Step-by-step explanation:

To now if a triangle is a right angle, use Pythagoras Theorem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

C usually be the longest side of the triangle, C = 17

Then also let a and b be 6 and 13 respectively.

6^2 + 13^2 =205

C^2 = 205

C = sqrt(205) = 14.32

therefore no this is not a right angle triangle
