Answer:

b=\dfrac{5}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

\dfrac{1}{3b}=\dfrac{4}{5}

hence by multiplying both sides by 3b we get that

1=\dfrac{12b}{5}

and so we multiply both sides by  \dfrac{5}{12}  to get that

b=\dfrac{5}{12}

1/(3b)=4/5  multiply both sides by 5

5/(3b)=4 multiply both sides by 3b

5=12b divide both sides by 12

b=5/12  (not sure why you don't have that as an option in your answers, perhaps I misunderstood your description of the original equation...)

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation 2x^2-8x-24=0
Vinvika [58]

2x^2 - 8x - 24

First, we can factor a 2 out of this expression to simplify it.

2(x^2 - 4x - 12)

Now, we can try factoring this two ways: by using the quadratic formula, or by using the AC method.

We're gonna try using the AC method first.

List factors of -12.

1 * -12

-1 * 12

2 * -6

-2 * 6 (these digits satisfy the criteria.)

Split the middle term.

2(x^2 - 2x + 6x - 12)

Factor by grouping.

2(x(x - 2) + 6(x - 2)

Rearrange terms.

<h3><u>(2)(x + 6)(x - 2) is the fully factored form of the given polynomial.</u></h3>

A rectangular pyramid measures three feet by four feet at the base, and has a height of seven feet. Find its volume. A. 21 ft3 B
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

C. 28 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for the volume of a pyramid:

V = \frac{1}{3}Bh, where B = the area of the base and h = height of the pyramid

Since the base is a rectangle, we can find area using the formula:

A = l x w or A = 3 x 4 = 12 ft²

Using B = 12 and h = 7:

V = \frac{(12)(7)}{3}

V = 28 ft³

GIVING BRAINLIEST TO THE CORRECT ANSWER!!
arlik [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No of total brown = 2 + 1 = 3 .

probability = 3 / 6

= 1 /2 .

no of males = 2

probability

= 2 / 6

= 1 /3

no of person who is both male and brown = 1

probability = 1 /6

Required probability

= probability of being brown + probability of being male - probability of being both

= 1 / 2 + 1 / 3 - 1 /6

= 4 / 6

= 2 / 3 .
