Hey there!
We have 10 pieces of paper. The probability of drawing a 10 is 1/10. Therefore, if we were to draw ten times, the ten should probably be drawn once. If we multiplied our number of drawings by four (10*4=40), our outcome of seeing our slip with the ten should also quadruple and become four times. (1*4=4)
I hope that this helps! Have an awesome day!
The class is made up of male and female students.
"A drama class has a total of 26 students"
f + m = 26
"The number of females is 16 less than the number of males"
f = m - 16
Substitute the second equation into the first.
m - 16 + m = 26
- combine like terms -
2m - 16 = 26
- add 16 to both sides -
2m = 42
- divide by 2 -
m = 21
Now substitute that answer into either equation
f + 21 = 26
- subtract both sides by 21 -
f = 5
Remember that whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other
Hi, do you mean an area of 58 inches squared? If you do, then your answer is: 5.8... the width would be 5.8.
