Decompose the rectangle along the diagonal and recompose the two pieces to make a different shape, then five different ways are shown.

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Area is the number of squares inside a two-dimensional shape.

Here are two important principles for finding area:

If two figures can be placed one on top of the other, then they have the same area so that they match up exactly.
We can decompose a figure (break a figure into pieces) and rearrange the pieces (move the pieces around) to find its area.

A rectangle has two diagonals. Each one is a line segment drawn between the opposite vertices (corners) of the rectangle. For rectangle, shapes can be decomposed and rearranged back to rectangles to find the area. When decomposing and rearranging shapes the area of the polygon does not change.

The rectangle is shown in the picture below. After decompose the rectangle along the diagonal, we can varied the pieces to make various different shape. Picture below also shown the five different ways pieces from the rectangle.

In a group of 100 adults, 70 say they are most likely to do spring houseclean-ing in March, April, or May. Of these 70, the numb

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Adults that clean in March = 18

Adults that clean in April = 48

Adults that clean in May = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Adults that clean in the months of March, April and May = 70

Let a represent March, b represent April and c represent May.

Therefore, a + b + c = 70 (i)

From the question, the number of adults that clean in April is 14 more than number of the adults cleaning in months of March and May combined.

b - ( a + c) = 14 (ii)

also, the total number who clean in April and May is 2 more than three times the number who clean in March.

b + c - 3a = 2 (iii)

From (i), a + c = 70 - b (iv)

Substituting (iv) into (ii), b - ( 70 - b) = 14

b -70 + b = 14

2b = 84, b =48

Therefore a + c = 70 - 48

a + c = 22; c = 22 - a (v)

Substituting (v) and b = 48 into (iii)

48 + 22 - a -3a = 2

4a = 72, a = 18

Therefore, c = 22 - 18

c = 4

A pair of dice are rolled. What is the probability of rolling 4 or greater?

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer: option D: 11/12

Explanation:

1) The sample space is formed by 36 pairs: 6×6 = 36.

2) Roolling 4 or more is the same that not rolling 3 or less

3) Rolling 3 or less are (1,1), (1,2), and (2,1). Those are 3 outcomes out of 36.

4) Therefore, not rolling 3 or less (the same that rolling 4 or more) has 36 - 3 = 33 outcomes out of 36.

5) The probability of 33 out of 36 is 33/36

6) Simplify the fraction 33/36 = 11/12

And that is the answer.

In the figure below, F,G,H and J are collinear. FG, GK, and HK are lone segments of equivalent length, and the measure of JHK is

ANEK [815]

The answer would be 30 degrees because points F, G, H, and J are collinear, all you would have to do is figure out /_GHK by subtracting 180 degrees from it.

Like this :

JHK = 180 degrees - 120 degrees = 60 degrees

The difference of sample means of two populations is 108.7, and the standard deviation of the difference in sample means is 32.

charle [14.2K]

Answer: A. The difference of the two means is significant at the 68% confidence level, so the null hypothesis must be rejected.

Step-by-step explanation:

I just got it right on PLATO, so I know it’s 100% correct.
