Answer:

0.16 or 16%

Step-by-step explanation:

an easier way to work this out is to convert these decimals into percentage. to do this, multiply the number by 100:

0.2 x 100 = 20%

0.64 x 100 = 64%

a percentage is out of 100 (probability of a win = 20/100 = 1/5) so to work this out, you just have to subtract the percentages that are known from 100:

100% - 20% = 80%

80% - 64% = 16%

∴ the probability of a loss = 16% or 0.16 as a decimal.

<u>Another way to work this out</u> is to add together the amounts that are given then work out what number needs to be added to = 1

0.2 + 0.64 = 0.84

0.84 + <u>?</u> = 1

0.84 + <u>0.16</u> = 1

∴ the probability of a loss = 0.16

HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL :-)

To find the probability of a loss add .2 and .64 together. You will get .84. The remaining .16 is the probability of a loss. The probability of a loss is .16.

A rectangular prism has a base that is 6 m by 3.5 m in the prism is 9 m high what is the surface area of the prism
brilliants [131]

Answer:

213 meters squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a rectangular prism is found using the formula A=2(wl+hl+hw). Here substitute l = 6, w = 3.5 and h = 9.

A = 2((3.5*6) + (9*6) + (3.5*9))

A = 2(21 + 54 + 31.5)

A = 2(106.5)

A = 213
