For the order of operation use PEMDAS

To find the probability of pulling something first take note of the total number and the amount of which you want to select.
100 and 10
Now set them up as a fraction
10/100 and simplify
1/10 or 10%
For this, it's like finding a partial volume. Altogether, there will be 10 inches of sand, because 4+6 is 10. Because it is in inches, we have to convert it to feet. 10 inches in feet is 10/12 feet, or about .833. This is then used for the volume formula instead of the 1 foot height. So, the equation is 6 times 4 times 10/12. This comes out to be 20.
Hope this helps :)
In this problem, you have already shown the solution.
24 = 3y - 6 => 30 = 3y, y =10
12 = 5x + 2 => 10 = 5x , x = 2
And yes, basically parallel sides must have the same length
These are the answers:
for 17.) x = 2
y = 10
for 18.) mid segment = (side 1 + side 2) / 2 -->
19 = (24 + side2) / 2 -->
38 = 24 + side2,
thus, side 2 = 14 units
I believe 6 because either
