A)He can cut 5 strips of of 7/10m.
7/10=0.7m
0.7*5=3.5m
3.5m of wire wil be used in cutting possible 7/10m pieces.
b)Leftover will be 0.6m.
4.1-3.5=0.6m
Answer:
The probability that an applicant does not get a job if he or she has an interview is 20%.
Step-by-step explanation:
- If the applicant has been interviewed, then she/he belongs to the group of 20 people that had an interview.
- 16 of the 20 people who were interviewed were offered a job, which means that 4 of the 20 people interviewed were not offered a job.
- Then, 4/20= 20% of the people who were intervied did not get a job, which means that the <u>probability that an applicant does not get a job if he/she were interviewed is 20%</u>.
- Pat attention: this probability results from analysing the probability of getting a job once you have had an interview (this condition restricts our attention to the group of 20 people who had an interview, and not to the hole group of 500 people who did apply for the job).
The patch doubles in size each day so, on the 47th will be half the size than on the 48th day
Answer:
B = 48
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given that the two vertical lines are parallel. That means that the alternate interior angles are equal (they form a Z shape).
So the given is that A = B
A = 5x - 12
B = 2x + 24
Solution
5x - 12 = 2x + 24
5x - 12 = 2x + 24 + 12
5x = 2x + 36
5x - 2x = 36
3x = 36
x = 36/3
x = 12
================
B is
B = 2x + 24
B = 2*12 + 24
B = 24 + 24
B = 48
Answer: Your brother is 15 years old right now.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "m" your currently age and "b" your brother's currently age.
Knowing that right now he is three times (this indicates multiplication) as old as you, you can write the following equation:
In five years your age will be:
And your brother's age will be:
Then, if in five years, your brother will be twice as old as you, you can set up the second equation:
Then, the System of equations is:
Apply the Substitution method and substitute the first equation into the second one and solve for "m":
Substitute the value of "m" into the first equation and evaluate in order to find "b":
