3/16=5/x
times both sides by 16x (aka cross multiply
3x=5*16
3x=80
divide both sides by 3
x=80/3
x=26 and 2/3
the missing number is 80/3 or 26 and 2/3
<h3><u>The length is equal to 13.</u></h3><h3><u>The width is equal to 8.</u></h3>
l = 2w - 3
2l + 2w = 42
Because we have a value for l, we can plug it into the second equation to solve for w.
2(2w - 3) + 2w = 42
Distributive property.
4w - 6 + 2w = 42
Combine like terms.
6w - 6 = 42
Add 6 to both sides.
6w = 48
Divide both sides by 6.
w = 8
Now that we have a value for w, we can solve for the exact value of l.
l = 2(8) - 3
l = 16 - 3
l = 13
(x+4)^2 / 9 - (y+3)^2 / 16 = 1
a^2 = 16 and b^2 = 9
a = +4 and -4
b = +3 and -3
Center is (-4, -3)
Vertices is (-4 + a, -3) and (-4 - a, -3)
Vertices is (-1, -3) and (-7, -3)
A multiple of 4 is a 12/50 chance and a multiple of 5 is a 10/50 chance or simplified 1/5 chance
