$1inch = 3ft. \\ 4inches = x$
$x = 4 \times 3 \\ x = 12$
The answer is the real giraffe is 12 ft.

Hope this helps. - M

The answer is 12ft. Because if 1in is 3ft then 4in will be 4 multiplied by 3

A spinner numbered 1 through 12 is spun. Find the probability that

anastassius [24]

Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event of getting an odd number.

P(A) be the probability of getting an odd number.

Total odd numbers here are 6 i.e. $\{1,3,5,7,9,11\}$

Here, total numbers in the game are 12 i.e $\{1,2,3,....,12\}$ .

Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as:

$P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}$

$P(A) = \dfrac{6}{12}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}$

Let B be the event of getting 11.

P(B) be the probability of getting 11.

Total number of possible cases is 1.

$P(B) = \dfrac{1}{12}$

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability that we get 11 and an odd number.

Possible number of cases = 1

$P(A\cap B) = \dfrac{1}{12}$

P(B/A) is the probability that we get an 11 given that it is an odd number.

$P(B/A) = \dfrac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{12}}{\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{6}$

Hence, P(B/A) = $\dfrac{1}{6}$

1. What is a perfect square? 2. What is the square root of 4x²? 3. What is the square root of 25? 4. Factor 4x² + 20x + 25.

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) A perfect square is a whole number which is a product of a smaller whole number and itself. Examples of perfect squares are

4(2 × 2)

9(3 × 3)

16(4 × 4)

25(5 × 5)

36(6 × 6)

2) Square root of 4x² is 2x(product of square root of 4 and square root of x²)

3) square of 25 is 5

4) 4x² + 20x + 25

The general formula for solving quadratic equations is expressed as

x = [- b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/2a

From the equation given,

a = 4

b = 20

c = 25

Therefore,

x = [- 20 ± √(20² - 4 × 4 × 25)]/2 × 4

x = [- 20 ± √(400 - 400)]/8

x = [- 20 ± 0]/8

x = - 20/8

x = - 2.5
