x = length

y = width

---

2x + 2y = 60

x/y = 3/2

2x = 3y

---

put the system of linear equations into standard form

---

2x + 2y = 60

2x - 3y = 0

---

solution:

length = 18 cm

width = 12 cm

Hope this helps!

(2.)2/3

(3.) 2:1

(4.) 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(1.) 12 mult. problems and 12+24=36 total so 12/36 =1/3

(2.) 24 div. problems and 36 totals so 24/36 =2/3

(3.) 24 div and 12 mult =24/12 or 2/1

the excursion boat on the river takes 2 1/2 hours to make the trip to a point 12 miles up stream and to return. If the rate at w
MissTica
Let V, be the rate in still water and let C = rate river current
If the boat is going :
upstream, its rate is V-C and if going 
downstream, its rate is V+C,
But V = 5C, then
Upstream Rate: 5C - C = 4 C
Downstream rate: 5C+C = 6C

Time = distance/Rate,  (or time = distance/speed) , then:
Upstream time 12/4C and
Downstream time: 12/.6C

Upstream time +downstream time:= 2h30 ' then:

12/4C + 12/.6C = 2.5 hours
3/C + 2/C = 5/2 (2.5 h = 5/2)
Reduce to same denominator :
 5C = 10 and Rate of the current = 2 mi/h

A person trying to gain access to a bank vault must pass through a series of three security doors. If an attempt to pass through
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

C) S = {F, PF, PPF, PPP}

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case, we know that a person is trying to gain access to a bank vault and needs to go through 3 security doors, and we know that if the person does not pass a door, then he/she has no other attempts. We denote P= Successful pass , F= Failed pass

And we are interested on the sample space, we need to remember that the sample is the set with all the possible values for an experiment.

For this case the person can fail at the 1,2 or 3 try

For the case that fails at the 1 try we have F

For the case that fails at the 2 try we have PF

For the case that fails at the 3 try we have PPF

And the last option is that the person not fails at any try and we have PPP

So then the sample space would be given by:

C) S = {F, PF, PPF, PPP}

Which of the numbers below could be terms in the sequence an = 4n - 7? Check all that apply.
cluponka [151]
There are several possible terms which can be included given the sequence formula an = 4n - 7. If we list all the possibilities, here are as follows:

n      an
0      -7
1      -3
2      1
3      5
.       .
.       .
.       .
n      an

Substitute any number n to an and you can get all the terms in the sequence.
