The long piece is 4 times the length of the short piece.

Short piece = 1 time
Long piece  = 4 times
--------------------------------
Full rope  =  5 times

                                   5 times = 70 inches

Divide each side by 5 :    1 time = 14 inches

<em>Short piece</em> = 1 time = <em>14 inches</em>

<em>Long piece</em> = 4 times = 4 x 14inches = <em>56 inches</em>


<u>Check:</u>

Ratio of long to short  =  56inches / 14inches  = <u>4</u>

Sum of both pieces =  (56 + 14)  =  <u>70 inches</u>

                                                                         yay !

Pavel [41]

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

2 out of every 5 people buys vanilla ice cream;

If Total number of ice cream sold in a day = 65 ; how many will be vanilla ;

Probability of purchasing vanilla ; p(vanilla) = 2/5 = 0.4

Hence, expected number who bought vanilla :

p(vanilla) * total number of icecream sold

0.4 * 65 = 26

Hence, about 26 of the 65 icecream sold are vanilla flavor.

Which point lies on the line with point-slope equation y - 3 = 4(x + 7)?
Sav [38]

Answer:

y=4x+31

your answer will have a line that

3 is your y-intercept located at your y-axis

and 4x your slope.

we start from our point on the y-axis 31

and rise/run

rise over run = 4/1

rise 4

run 1

so move up 4

and to the right 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is no image for me to tell you which line it is you can easily find out by chancing this expression to y=mx+b form. also known as slope intercept form.

y-3=4(x+7)

we want to do order of operations. pemdas

so first we do Parenthesis to do so we need to distribute the 4.

after we do so we get...

y-3=4x+28

now we need to move -3 to isolate y

to do so we need add 3

y=4x+31
