3 a plus b equals 54, when b equals 9?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tema [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a = 15 when b = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

3 a plus b equals 54  in symbolic terms is 3a + b = 54.

Now, if b = 9, 3a + b = 54 becomes 3a + 9 = 54.

Subtracting 9 from both sides yields an equation for 3a:

3a = 45

Dividing both sides by 3 yields a = 15 when b = 9

The probability that a plant is edible is 4/5 and the probability that a plant grows at a constant rate and is edible is 14/19.
miskamm [114]

Answer: Probability that a plant grows at a constant rate, given it is edible is given by \frac{35}{38}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B be an event that getting a plant grows at a constant rate.

Since we have given that

The probability that a plant is edible is given by

P(A)=\frac{4}{5}

The probability that a plant grows at a constant rate and is edible is given by

P(A\cap B)=\frac{14}{19}

We will use "Conditional probability ", i.e.

P(A\mid B)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}

P(A\mid B)=\frac{\frac{14}{19}}{\frac{4}{5}}\\\\P(A\mid B)=\frac{14\times 5}{19\times 4}\\\\P(A\mid B)=\frac{70}{76}\\\\P(A\mid B)=\frac{35}{38}

Hence, Probability that a plant grows at a constant rate, given it is edible is given by \frac{35}{38}.

The trapezoid ABCD has bases AB = 15 and CD = 5, thigh AD = 9 and diagonal BD = 12. Find:
Fed [463]

Answer:

The height of the trapezoid is 6.63 units

The perimeter of the trapezoid is 38 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever a geometry problem is given, it is often useful if it is sketched out. A sketch of this problem can be found in the image attached.

A)

We can see that a right-angled triangle is formed between points BED, with line BE being the height, h.

To get the dimensions of the line EB, we subtract the dimensions of DC from AB. This will give 15 -5 = 10

hence the dimensions of the righ angled triangle are

DE= h

DB = 12 (diagonal)

EB = 10

From Pythagoras' theorem,

h =\sqrt{12^2 -10^2}=6.63

The height of the trapezoid is 6.63

B)

We can get the perimeter of the trapezoid by adding the dimensions of all four sides together.

This will be

AD + DC + CB + AB

However we can assume for this case that it is a symmetrical trapezoid, and hence AD = CB

Thus, perimeter =

2 (AD) + DC +AB

2(9) +5 +15 = 38.

The perimeter of the trapezoid is 38 units

Please help with the problem in the picture ^ I’ll give brainliest if you give me a small explanation! :)
dlinn [17]

Answer:

i got negative 108

Step-by-step explanation:

i got this because just put it in a porportion like x/y = x/?

then plug in the numbers it gives you. so it should look like this 5/-45 = 12/?

then multiply 12 and -45 and then divide by 5. you should get -108

pls mark branliest
