Answer:

6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem involves using ratios to compare side lengths in similar triangles.

136/34=x/1.5

136/34*1.5=x

x=6

joja [24]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Yes the company can hire 6 carpenters and 12 pumbers

So first lets find out how much it costs to have 6 carpenter for $220 a day.

$220 × 6 = $1320  this is how much it cost to pay 6 carpenters for one day.

Now lets find how much it cost to 12 plumbers at $260 a day.

$260 × 12 = $3120 this is how much it costs to pay 12 plumbers a day.

The total amount you have to pay to the workers is:

$3120 + $1320 = $4440

Your budget was $4500 so the total costs for the workers is $4440 which means you can hire those workers and you would still have $60.

A number cube is rolled three times. What is the probability of rolling three even numbers?
ziro4ka [17]
It depends on how many numbers are on the cube. If the cube goes up to five then you have a 2/5 chance to roll an even number one time. If the dice goes up to 10 then you have 5/10 chance of rolling an even number.
