Answer:

$\huge\boxed{6 ( 3d + 2 )}$

Step-by-step explanation:

18d + 12

The greatest common factor is 6, So we need to factor out 6

=> 6 ( 3d + 2 ) [Distributive property has been applied and this is the simplest form]

Find the missing side of triangle

Maksim231197 [3]

<u>Final Answer:</u>

x = 20

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

we'll be using the pythagorean theorem method, in this triangle the missing letter is a.

formula: $a=\sqrt{c^2-b^2}$

a = x

b = 21

c = 29

a = $\sqrt{29^2-21^2}$

a = $\sqrt{841-441}$ (note: 29² = 29 × 29 = 841 and 21² = 21 × 21 = 441)

a = $\sqrt{400}$

a = 20

x = 20

In a genetics experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained green peas and yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate

dem82 [27]

Complete Question

In a genetic experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 436 green peas and 171 yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the value of 3/4 that was expected? The probability of getting a green pea is approximately: Is the probability reasonably close to 3/4?

Answer:

The probability is $P(g) =0.72$

Yes the result is reasonably close

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The number of of green peas is $g = 436$

The number of yellow peas is $y = 171$

The sample size is $n = 171 + 436 = 607$

The probability of getting an offspring pea that is green is mathematically represented as

$P(g) = \frac{g}{n}$

$P(g) = \frac{436}{607}$

$P(g) =0.72$

Comparing $P(g) =0.72$ to $\frac{3}{4} = 0.75$ we see that the result is reasonably close

A plumber charges $50 to come to a house and $20 an hour for work time.

PolarNik [594]

Since the 50 remains the same every time, is has no letters next to it in the equation. The 20, however, is multiplied by the amount of hours, and will therefore have an h next to.

20h + 50- the answer is a.

Sally either walks, cycles or drives to work. She walks about 15% of the time and drives about 3/5 of the time. What percentage

goblinko [34]

Answer: She cycles 25% of the time

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, Sally walks 15% of the time.

She drives 3/5 of the time.

We then convert 3/5 to percentage.

Converting to percentage means multiplying by a factor of 100.

Hence, Sally drives 3/5*100 = 60% of the time.

If Sally walks 15% of the time and drives 60% of the time, adding up the percentage time used by these two media of transportation will give us

60% + 15% = 75%

Hence if she cycles for the remainder of the time, expressing it as percentage would mean subtracting the time used in other means by 100%

Hence it will be 100% - 75% = 25%
