In a game of rock paper scissors, what are the chances that someone playing against a person playing only paper would win?
As for the answer, if you were to make a chart to show rock, paper, and scissors, you'd be able to see that there's a 2/3 chance of winning by choosing rock. With scissors, there's also a 2/3 chance to win. Now with paper, there's only a 1/3 chance to win. Knowing that the other person will only play paper, the best answers would be to choose either rock or scissors.
(there are, of course, flaws with this concept, because the opponent could be lying about playing only paper. More or less, it's a good design to show probability.)

4x-2+1=3x+5
Subtract 3x from both sides
x-2+1=5
Same as
x-1=5
Add 1 to both sides
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Length = L
Width = W
L=8 more than 2W
L = 8 * 2W
L = 16W
Perimeter = 96
perimeter is the lengths of all sides added together
so
2L + 2W = 96
we have
L = 16W
2L + 2W = 96
let's do substitution
put what L = into 2L + 2W = 96
so
2(16W) + 2W = 96
can you rearrange that to get w

Plane #1 speed: x mph
Plane #2 speed: (x+30) mph
time = time becomes
170 mi 185 mi
---------- = --------------
x x+30
Solving for x, the speed of the slower plane, we get
170x + 5100 = 185 x
5100
Then 15x = 5100, and x = ---------- (mi/hr) = 340 mph
15
The slower plane flies at 340 mph, and the faster one at 370 mph.
