Answer:

  The rectangle is 10 cm by 18 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance from the center of the rectangle to the longer side. Then the distance to the shorter side is x+4. The short side of the rectangle will have length 2x, and the long side will have length 2(x+4) = 2x+8.

The perimeter is twice the sum of the side lengths, so is ...

  56 = 2(2x +(2x+8)) = 8x +16

  40 = 8x . . . . . . . subtract 16

  40/8 = x = 5 . . . divide by the coefficient of x

The side lengths are 2x=10 and 2x+8 = 18 centimeters.

What's the probability of pulling two red cards in a row from a deck of cards?​
monitta

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's say that we don't have jokers. In that case, there are 52 cards, and half of them are red (so 26 are red). The probability of pulling a red card once is 1/2 since half the cards are red.

If we pick one out, there are only 51 total cards left and 25 red cards. So, the probability of picking one again would be 25/51.

We multiply the probabilities of these two events to find the probability of them both happening.

1/2×25/51=25/102

The probability of picking two red cards in a row is 25/102 or around 24.5%.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Determine whether
lora16 [44]

Answer:

(a) and (b) are not equivalent

(c) is equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{25^m}{5}

Required

Determine an equivalent or nonequivalent expression

(a)\ 25^{m-1

We have:

25^{m-1

Apply law of indices

25^{m-1} = \frac{25^m}{25}

<em>This is not equivalent to </em>\frac{25^m}{5}<em></em>

(b)\ 25^{2m - 1}

We have:

25^{2m - 1}

Apply law of indices

25^{2m - 1} = \frac{25^{2m}}{25}

<em>This is not equivalent to </em>\frac{25^m}{5}<em></em>

<em></em>

<em />(c)\ 5^{2m-1}<em />

We have:

<em />5^{2m-1}<em />

Apply law of indices

<em />5^{2m-1} = \frac{5^{2m}}{5^1}<em />

<em />5^{2m-1} = \frac{5^{2m}}{5}<em />

<em>Evaluate the numerator</em>

<em />5^{2m-1} = \frac{25m}{5}<em />

<em />

<em>This is an equivalent expression</em>

Madison wants to make cookies for her little sisters .she is cutting a roll into pieces that are 1/2 inch if the roll is 13 inch
Serggg [28]
If you’re cutting it into half inch pieces, you’ll take the length of the roll and multiply it by 2, so 13•2=26
