Answer: 720

Step-by-step explanation:

480 : 16 marked

480-16 = 464

They saw 464 unmarked squirrels and 16 marked squirrels

464/16 = 29

They saw 29 unmarked squirrels for every 1 makes squirrel

29 * 24 = 696

They would have seen 696 unmarked squirrels for the 24 marked squirrels.

696 + 24 = 720

You roll a number cube twice. Find the probability of the events. Rolling an odd number 2 or a 4.
forsale [732]

Answer: see below

Step-by-step explanation:

If this is a 6 sided die then the only possible roll that isnt an odd, a 2, or a 4 is 6.

The probability of something happening is also the probability of something not happening. So in order to not roll an odd, a 2 or a 4 in two rolls, you have to roll a 6 twice.

P = 1 - (1/6)(1/6) = 1 - (1/36) = (35/36)

Given BE= 2x+6 and ED= 5x-12 in a parallelogram ABCD, find BD
Brrunno [24]
1.BE = 2x + 6
   ED = 5x - 12
2. To get the entire side of BD, we must add both half's which equals to the entire length.
3. 2x + 6 + 5x - 12
4.Add like terms.
2x + 5x = 7x
-12 + 6 = -6
5. So, we have 7x - 6

=7x - 6

Bridgette made a graph of her neighborhood on a coordinate grid. The points A(-2, 3), B(-2, -2), C(2, -2), and D(2, 3) represent
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{18 blocks}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance travelled on graph = AB + BC + CD + DA  

AB = CD  = (3 +2) = 5

BC = AD = 2 –(-2) = 4

Distance on graph = 2 × 5 + 2 × 4 = 10 + 8 = 18 spaces = 18 blocks

Bridgette jogs \boxed{\textbf{18 blocks}}each day.
