Answer:

1/4 or 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of picking a yellow marker is the same as how "big of a part" the yellow markers are out of the total number of markers.

Let's find the total number of markers:

7 + 3 + 4 + 2 = 16

There are 16 markers in total. Out of these, 4 are yellow.

Thus, the probability of picking a yellow will be:

\frac{yellow}{total}=\frac{4}{16}  = \frac{1}{4}

Answer: 1/4

We can also write it as a percentage:

\frac{1}{4} * 100\% = 25\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the bracket first. starting with multiplication and then subtraction

0.00035 + (4.2 x 10-5)

0.00035 + (42-5)

0.00035 + 37

Alex wants to fence in an area for a dog park. He has plotted three sides of the fenced area at the points E (1, 5), F (3, 5), a
hram777 [196]

Answer:

(1,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: E, F, G, H denote the three coordinates of the area fenced

To find: coordinates of point H

Solution:

According to distance formula,

length of side joining points (x_1,y_1)\,,\,(x_2,y_2) is equal to \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

So,

EF=\sqrt{(3-1)^2+(5-5)^2}=2\,\,units\\FG=\sqrt{(6-3)^2+(1-5)^2}=\sqrt{9+16}=5\,\,units\\GH=\sqrt{(x-6)^2+(y-1)^2}\\EH=\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-5)^2}

Perimeter of a figure is the length of its outline.

EF+FG+GH+EH=16\\2+5+\sqrt{(x-6)^2+(y-1)^2}+\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-5)^2}=16\\\sqrt{(x-6)^2+(y-1)^2}+\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-5)^2}=16-2-5\\\sqrt{(x-6)^2+(y-1)^2}+\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-5)^2}=9

Put (x,y)=(1,1)

\sqrt{(1-6)^2+(1-1)^2}+\sqrt{(1-1)^2+(1-5)^2}=9\\\sqrt{25}+\sqrt{16}=9\\5+4=9\\9=9

This is true.

So, the point (1,1) satisfies the equation \sqrt{(x-6)^2+(y-1)^2}+\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-5)^2}=9

So, point H is (1,1).

Please help me out and show work
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

s(x)=\frac{0.2}{x+5}

Step-by-step explanation:

In 5 liters, there is 4% salt.

Lets find liters of salt.

First, converting 4% to decimal (dividing by 100):

4% = 4/100 = 0.04

0.04 * 5 = 0.2

So, there is 0.2 liters of salt.

Now, x liters of water is added to total, so total is now:

5 + x

The concentration of salt will be amount of salt divided by amount of salt water solution.

Amount of salt = 0.2 (as seen above)

Amount of new salt water solution = x + 5

So,

Concentration of salt in new solution is  \frac{0.2}{x+5}

2nd choice is right.
