Answer:

36 feet squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the perimeter of an object is adding all of the sides together. If the width of the rug is 6 feet then we know that there are two sides that length. Add those together.

6 feet + 6 feet = 12 feet

You would subtract the number you get from the perimeter.

24 feet - 12 feet = 12 feet

And then divide the number by the number of sides left, 2, to get each of their lengths.

12 feet / 2 feet = 6 feet

To find the area of a rectangle you multiply length times width, which in this case both are 6 feets.

6 feet x 6 feet = 36 feet squared

Probability: If you roll a regular 6-faced die 1200 times, about how many times would you expect to get a 4?

just olya [345]

If you roll a six sided dice once, each outcome has a 1/6 probability.

This means 4 has a 1/6 probability.

If you roll a dice 1200 times....

1200 × 1/6 = 1200/6 = 200

You would expect to get a 4 200 times.

Answer:

◻️B. The value of the mode is the least value of the data.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mode is the data value that appears most often

5,7,9,5,18,6,8,5

Arranging the data from smallest to largest

5,5,5,6,7,8,9,18

The number that appears most often is 5

This is the smallest value of the data

. Find two consecutive odd integers whose product is 99. (Note: There are two different pairs of consecutive odd

Tom [10]

Answer:

9 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:Let the 2 consecutive odd integers be n and n+2.

n(n + 2) = 99

Solve for n.

n2 + 2n - 99 = 0

(n + 11)(n - 9) = 0 ⇒

Two solutions:

n = -11

n + 2 = -9

and

n = 9

n + 2 = 11

Calculate the axis of symmetry in the equation Y = (x+1) (x-4)

algol [13]

Answer:

Every parabola has a turning point called the axis of symmetry,so for this question you just have to find the turning points

x turning point= -b/2a,and the y turning point is gotten by replacing the value of x in the equation

y=(x+1)(x-4)

=x^2-3x-4

a is 1,b is -3 and c is -4

x= -(-3)/2(1)

=1.5

and y=x^2-3x-4

=1.5^2-3(1.5)-4

= -6.25

therefore the axis of symmetry is (1.5,-6.25)

I hope this helps
