<em><u>The equation to find the length r of the red ribbon is:</u></em>

r = \frac{3b}{2}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "b" be the length of blue ribbon

Let "r" be the length of red ribbon

To find: equation for length r of the red ribbon.

The length of the blue ribbon is two - thirds the length of the red ribbon

Which means,

\text{Length of blue ribbon } = \frac{2}{3} \times \text{ length of the red ribbon }

Therefore,

b = \frac{2}{3} \times r\\\\3b = 2r\\\\r = \frac{3b}{2}

Thus the equation to find the length r of the red ribbon is found

an equation to find the length r of the red ribbon is r = \frac{3b}{2} , where b is the length of blue ribbon.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have , The length of the blue ribbon is two-thirds the length of the red ribbon. Let length of red ribbon is r cm , than length of blue ribbon is  two-thirds the length of the red ribbon i.e. \frac{2r}{3} .

Length of red ribbon = r cm

Length of blue ribbon = b = \frac{2r}{3} cm

⇒ Length of blue ribbon = b = \frac{2r}{3} cm

⇒ b = \frac{2r}{3}

⇒ r = \frac{3b}{2}

Therefore, an equation to find the length r of the red ribbon is r = \frac{3b}{2} , where b is the length of blue ribbon.

Solve by Elimination<br> 2x+5y=9<br> 3x-5y=11
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

x = 4 , y = ⅕

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5y = 9 (1)

3x - 5y = 11 (2)

Add (1) and (2)

5x = 20

x = 4

Using (1), find y

2(4) + 5y = 9

5y = 1

y = ⅕

If i roll 2 dice what is the probability that neither of them are prime nor even?
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

There are 3 prime numbers shown on the die: 2, 3 and 5. The probability of showing a prime number on a single die is 1/2, hence the probability of not showing a prime number is also 1/2. Total possible outcomes when two dice are rolled = 6*6 = 36. Total possible outcomes when two dice are rolled = 6*6 = 36.
