Use the formula for the area of a parallelogram:

\sf A=bh

Plug in what we know:

\sf A=(7\dfrac{1}{2})(5\dfrac{2}{7})

Convert both of them into improper fractions. We do this by multiplying the denominator to the whole number, adding it to the numerator, which becomes our new numerator, and we keep the denominator the same:

\sf A=(\dfrac{15}{2})(\dfrac{37}{7})

Now multiply the numerators and denominators together:

\sf A=\dfrac{15}{2}\cdot\dfrac{37}{7}\rightarrow\dfrac{15\cdot 37}{2\cdot 7}\rightarrow\dfrac{555}{14}

Convert it back into a mixed number. 14 goes into 555 thirty-nine times. 14 * 39 = 546. 555 - 546 = 9. So we have 39 wholes and 9 left over, or:

\sf 39\dfrac{9}{14}

So this is the area of the parallelogram.

no usually the problem is set up this way f(x,y)= z if z= w/e ( it has an x and a y) where y= (something that has s and t) and x= ( something that has s and t) but your question does not make sense to me. Are you sure you wrote it right?

If you roll a six sided die what is the p(5)? Express your answer as a fraction and as a percent.
hodyreva [135]

When rolling one die, there is one "5" outcome and six total outcomes. The formula for probability is represented as:

P(A) = \dfrac{\textrm{number of outcomes resulting in} \,A}{\textrm{total number of outcomes}}


Thus in this case, to find P(5), we would go about the following:

P(5) = \dfrac{1}{6}


To convert \frac{1}{6} to a percent, we first multiply by 100 and then divide, as shown:

\dfrac{1}{6} \cdot 100 = \dfrac{100}{6} = 16.\overline{6} \,\%


The fraction would be 1/6 and the percentage would be 16.666...%, which is often rounded to 16.67%.

Find the sum. Write your answer in simplest form. 3/7+ 2/3
frosja888 [35]
3/7 + 2/3

3/7 x 3/3 = 9/21
2/3 x 7/7 = 14/21

9/21 + 14/21 = 23/21 = 1 2/21
