4/8 is equal to 1/2. While this is true of one coin toss, it is not a 50% chance if you toss the coin twice. In tossing the coin twice you have the options of: heads, tails, heads, tails (One head and one tail per coin). Since there are four options, it is a 25% chance you will get heads twice in a row. 25% equals 1/4 which equals 2/8.

A chemist mixes a 10% hydrogen peroxide solution with a 25% hydrogen peroxide solution to create 30 liters of a 15% hydrogen per
FromTheMoon [43]
Your two equations are at the top, in the box is what each variable represents. Below the box is total liters of the 15%, which is going to equal the total liters for 10% plus the total liters for 25%. Make your percentages into decimals. There’s a total of 30 liters so, x+y needs to equal 30. Isolate a variable, I chose y, you can do either or (isolating x would be more math). Y is going to equal 30-x, substitute that for the Y in the second equation, then you need to distribute 0.25 into 30-x. Then it’s simple math, subtract 7.50 from both sides, add like gets, divide both sides by -0.15, making x=20.

a paper airplane can be made out of two different pieces of paper: a circular piece 10 inches wide and a square piece 11 inches
madreJ [45]
Compare the areas of the 2 different pieces of paper.

For the circle, the area is A=pi * r^2, which works out to A = pi(5 inches)^2.

For the square, the area is A = s^2, where is the side length, which here is 11 inches.

Finish these calculations, and then compare your two areas.  Which is the larger?

If k is a positive integer and n = k(k + 7), is n divisible by 6 ? (1) k is odd. (2) When k is divided by 3, the remainder is 2.
olganol [36]

Answer:

1.) Yes

2.) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

n = k(k + 7)

If k is a positive integer and n = k(k + 7), is n divisible by 6 ?

(1) k is odd. Yes.

Let assume that k = 3

Then, n = 3(3 + 7)

n = 3 × 10

n = 30.

30 is divisible by 6.

(2) When k is divided by 3, the remainder is 2. That is,

Let k = 5

Then,

5/3 = 1 remainder 2

Substitute k into the equation

n = k(k + 7)

n = 5(5 + 7)

n = 5 × 12

n = 60

And 60 is divisible by 6.

Therefore, the answer to both questions is Yes.

What is the surface area of the figure?
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The total surface area = 582 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of it count the number of faces at first

The figure has 8 faces each 2 are equal

1- Two faces with dimensions 4 ft and 15 ft ( base and shaded face)

2- Two faces with dimensions 9 ft and 4 ft

3- Two faces with dimensions 4 ft and 6 ft

4- Two faces with dimensions 15 ft , 9 ft and 6 ft

Area of (1-) = 2(4 × 15) = 120 ft²

Area of (2-) = 2(4 × 9) = 72 ft²

Area of (3-) = 2(4 × 6) = 48 ft²

Area of (4-) = 2[(9 × 9) + (6 × 15)] = 2[81 + 90] = 2 × 171 = 342 ft²

∴ The total surface area = 120 + 72 + 48 + 342 = 582 ft²
