The answer is 3/5, or 60%

11 (comedies) + 19 (tragedies) = 30
30/50 = 3/5, or 60%

Solve these equations for the variable.<br> (4p-4)(13p+27)
kondaur [170]

Answer:

p is approximately equal to 1.125,  -1.925

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this first by expanding, giving us a quadratic equation in the usual ax² + bx + c format, then solving that for p:

(4p - 4)(13p + 27) = 0

52p² + 108p - 52p - 108 = 0

52p² + 52p - 108 = 0

13p² + 13p - 27 = 0

13p² + 13p  = 27

p² + p = 27 / 13

p² + p + 1/4 = 27/13 + 1/4

(p + 1/2)² = 108 / 52 + 13 / 52

(p + 1/2)² = 121 / 52

p + 1/2 = ± √(121 / 52)

p = -1/2 ± 11√(1/13) / 2

At that point we can simply plug those numbers into a calculator and solve it:

p ≈ 1.125,  -1.925

Which expression is equivalent to<br> 200?<br> O2./10<br> 1012<br> 10./20<br> 1002
solong [7]

Hey there!

We know options. B and D aren't going to be your answer because they are way too big to be equivalent to 200

In order for you to find out which one is equivalent to 200 you have to calculate you late the options until you get to 200 and then you could do process of elimination!

It can't be A because 2/10 = 0.20 aka 20%

It can't be option. C because 10/20 = 0.50 aka 50%

So none of the above would be your answer

The correct answer would most likely be: 10√2

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

the difference between two numbers is 9. three times the smaller is equal to twice the larger. what are the numbers?
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: 27 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 9  → x = 9 + y

3y = 2x

3y = 2(9 + y)

3y = 18 + 2y

3y - 2y = 18

y = 18

2x = 3(18)

2x = 54

x = 27

x - y = 9

27 - 18 = 9

9 = 9

The length of a rectangular garden is 9 feet longer than its width. the garden's perimeter is 202 feet. find the length of the g
Harman [31]
202 - 18 = 184 (the length is 9ft longer than the width, and you double the length to find the perimeter, so you double the 9)
184 ÷ 4 = 46 (4 being the 4 sides of the rectangle)
width = 46
length = 46 + 9 = 55

55 x 46 = 2530

Area = 2530ft²
