Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A = Area of First Rectangle 

B = Area of Second Rectangle 

w = Width

12(w)=320+B (1st Equation)

8(w) = B (2nd Equation)

w=B/8 (Plug this value of w into the first equation)

12B/8 = 320 +B (you get this)

12B= 2560 + 8B (Simplify)

4B = 2560

B =640 plug this value into the 2nd equation

8(w) = 640

w = 80

To Test This

12x80 = 960

8x80 = 640

<h3>960 - 640 = 320 Therefore the answer is correct the width is 80</h3>

A wire that is 48 centimeters long is shown below.

torisob [31]

Answer:

The sides of the square measure 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If we cut the wire in half, we have to:

48/2 = 24

We would have two 24 cm wires

With each wire a square will be formed, therefore the question I suppose must be how much each side of the square measures.

We know that the square has 4 equal sides, therefore:

4/24 = 6

The sides of the square measure 6 cm

3. A published poll has indicated that 1 out of 15 people who use regular gasoline will pay $.40/gallon more for regular gasolin

nadezda [96]

Answer:

2658936 * $(\frac{14}{15})_{11} ^{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

probability that the 20th person visiting the service station to purchase regular gasoline will be the 4th person to purchase regular gasoline without ethanol

probability of people who use regular gasoline without ethanol = 1/15 and will pay more ( $0.40) /gallon

The total number of customer in the service station (number of trials) X = 20

success ( r ) = 4

P = 1/15

The probability that the 20th person/customer visiting the station would be the 4th person to purchase regular gasoline without ethanol

GOD PLZ HELP:: Find x- and y-intercepts. Write ordered pairs representing the points where the line crosses the axes.

Annette [7]

Answer:

x intercept is (3.75, 0) and y intercept is (0, 2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 6y - 15 = 0

x int = (3.75, 0)

0*6 = 0

4x - 15 = 0

0 + 15 = 4x = 15

15/4 = 4x

x = 3 3/4 or 3.75

y int = (0, 2.5)

0*4 = 0

6y - 15 = 0

15 = 6y

15/6 = y

y = 2.5

Your friend tossed a fair coin when you weren’t around. She has a habit of messing with you every once in a while, and so there

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that your friend tossed a fair coin when you weren’t around.

Let A be the event that she said the outcome is head

B1 = Event she lied and B2 = Event she did not lie

$P(B1) = \frac{1}{3} \\ P(B2) \frac{2}{3}$

P(AB1) = $\frac{1}{2} *\frac{1}{3} =\frac{1}{6}$

P(AB2) = $\frac{2}{3} \frac{1}{2} =\frac{2}{6}$

Required probability = P(B1/A)= $\frac{P(B1A)}{P(B1A)+P(B2A)} \\=\frac{\frac{1}{6} }{\frac{1}{6}+\frac{2}{6}} \\=\frac{1}{3}$
