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.

Answer:

10.55% probability

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the CDs are chosen is not important. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

1 Bach CD, from a set of 4.

1 Beethoven CD, from a set of 6.

1 Brahms CD, from a set of 3.

1 Handel CD, from a set of 2.

So, D=144

4 CDs from a set of 4+6+3+2 = 15.

So, T= 1365

p= D/T= 144/1365 = 0.1055

10.55% probability that she will choose one by each composer

How to answer this question??? <br>thanks

$\dfrac{2m}{5}+3=7(4m-3)\ \ \ \ |use\ distributive\ property:a(b-c)=ab-ac\\\\\dfrac{2m}{5}+3=28m-21\ \ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\\\2m+15=140m-105\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 140m\ from\ both\ sides\\\\-138m+15=-105\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 15\ from\ both\ sides\\\\-138m=-120\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ (-138)\\\\m=\dfrac{120:6}{138:6}\\\\\boxed{m=\frac{20}{23}}$
