The claim can be true because it is more likely to rain tomorrow if we have rain today.
The claim cannot be true because raining tomorrow is not guaranteed. The claim can be true because it is possible to have rain tomorrow.

Answer:

  The claim cannot be true because any probability is between 0 and 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 times 0.30 is 1.20, a value that cannot be a probability. Any probability will be between 0 and 1 (inclusive).

The claim cannot be true because any probability is between 0 and 1.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be:

The claim cannot be true because any probability is between 0 and 1.

Because we can only be 100% certain of something or less.

If he's saying that tomorrow you have 4 times the probability of today, which is 30%, that would be 120%. But you can't be 120% sure that it will rain.

The width of a rectangle is the sum of the length and 1. The area of the rectangle is 20 units. What is the width, in units, of
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

W=5

Step-by-step explanation:

W=Width=Length + 1

L = Length

Area = Length * Width = 20

Area = L * W = L * (L+1) = 20

Distribute the L:   L^2 + L = 20

Subtract 20 from both sides: L^2 + L -20 = 20-20

Simplify:  L^2+L-20=0

Factor (L-4)(L+5)=0

Solve using the zero property: L-4=0, L=4      L+5=0, L=-5

The two options for length are 4 and -5. Only 4 will work for L since it cannot be negative.   Width is Length + 1 = 5

Two numbers are in the ratio 7:8. Find the numbers if their sum is 45.
Galina-37 [17]
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
7x + 8x = 45
15x = 45
x = 45/15
  = 3
Then the two numbers are
7x :8x
7 * 3:8 * 3
21: 24
Then the two numbers are 21 and 24. I hope the procedure in which the problem is done is clear to you. This is a simple but effective way of solving such problems. In future this method will make you confident about solving these kind of problems.

A rectangle has an area of 72 in². The length and the width of the rectangle are changed by a scale factor of 3.5. What is the a
kifflom [539]

Answer:

The area of the new rectangle is 882 in².

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l be the length and w be the width of the original rectangle,

So, the area of the original rectangle is,

A = l × w                  ( Area of a rectangle = Length × Width )

Given, A = 72 in²,

⇒ lw = 72 ------- (1),

Since, if the rectangle are changed by a scale factor of 3.5,

⇒ New length = 3.5 l,

And, new width = 3.5 w,

Thus, the area of the new rectangle = 3.5l × 3.5w

=(3.5)^2lw

=12.25\times 72  ( From equation (1) ),

= 882 in²
