Answer:

14x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides for the square are equal to 2x-5 because that is the square root of the area.  The length of the rectangle is 3x+6 and the width is 3x-6 because that is what you get when you factor the equation.

Now, you have add them up.

4(2x-5)+2(3x-6)+2(3x+6)\\

To take out the line in the middle of the shape we will subtract 2(3x-6) because we are assuming that this equation is equal to the shorter side.  This makes the equation

4(2x-5)+2(3x-6)\\14x-8

If you are looking for a numerical answer, I can't say I know how to get it.

Hope this helps! <3

Answer:

0.335 = 33.5% probability that the student plans to go to medical school

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the probability that the student plans to go to medical school?

Sum of:

40% of 40%(freshmen)

30% of 10%(sophomores)

35% of 30%(juniors)

20% of 20%(seniors)

So

p = 0.4*0.4 + 0.3*0.1 + 0.35*0.3 + 0.2*0.2 = 0.335

0.335 = 33.5% probability that the student plans to go to medical school

Having some trouble with these questions, how do I work them out?
matrenka [14]

5.

Let x be the age of the father and y be the age of the son. As of today, he's 3 times older, so we have x=3y

10 years ago their ages were, respectively, x-10 and y-10, and the father was 5 times older: x-10 = 5(y-10)

So, we have the system

\begin{cases} x=3y\\x-10=5(y-10)\end{cases}

Using the first equation, we can substitute every occurrence of "x" with "3y" in the second equation:

3y-10=5(y-10) \iff 3y-10=5y-50 \iff 2y = 40 \iff y=20

So, the son is 20 years old, which means that the father is 60 years old.

Indeed, 10 years ago they were 10 and 50 years old, so the father was 5 times older.

6.

Let x be the age of the grandfather and y the age of the granddaughter. We know that the grandfather is 10 times older: x=10y

He also is 54 years older: x=y+54

Again, if we substitute x=10y in the second equation we have

10y=y+54 \iff 9y=54 \iff y=6
