Answer:
Probability that the measure of a segment is greater than 3 = 0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given attachment,
AB ≅ BC, AC ≅ CD and AD = 12
Therefore, AC ≅ CD = 
= 6 units
Since AC ≅ CD
AB + BC ≅ CD
2(AB) = 6
AB = 3 units
Now we have measurements of the segments as,
AB = BC = 3 units
AC = CD = 6 units
AD = 12 units
Total number of segments = 5
Length of segments more than 3 = 3
Probability to pick a segment measuring greater than 3,
= 
= 
= 0.6
Answer:
m = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 8 + 6m =
(4m + 16) ← distribute parenthesis
- 8 + 6m = 2m + 8 ( subtract 2m from both sides )
- 8 + 4m = 8 ( add 8 to both sides )
4m = 16 ( divide both sides by 4 )
m = 4
$87.5 because 30% of 125 is 37.5 so 125-37.5 is 87.5
The sum of two numbers:
x + y = 108
The difference of the same two numbers:
x - y = 78
We can use substitution to figure out x and y:
x - y = 78 can be changed to x = 78 + y
We can plug this into the first equation:
78 + y + y = 108
78 + 2y = 108
2y = 30
y = 15
Now solve for x using any of the two equations. I'll use the first equation since it's easier:
x + 15 = 108
x = 93
