The answer is 17cm by 20cm.
The original area is 460cm (20x23), minus 120cm gives a new area of 340cm.
20cm-3cm=17cm and 23cm-3cm=20cm
17cmx20cm = 340cm

Answer:

71 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Paper 1 :

65% of 120 = 0.65 X 120 = 78

Paper 2 :

80% of 80 = 0.8 X 80 = 64

Total Percentage:

Add the two scores 78 + 64 = 142

Add the what it was out of 120 + 80 = 200

Use (Score / Total marks available) X 100

(142 / 200) X 100 = 71

a person who weighs 120 lb on Earth would weigh 45 1/5 pounds on Mars set up a proportion to determine how much a 90 pound perso
Lunna [17]
Weight on Mars for a 90lb person: 34.05lbs

Weight on Mars : Weight On Earth/91.8m/s^2 • 3.711m/s

Earths Force : 91.8m/s^2

Mars Gravitational Force : 3.711m/s

So an object or person on Mars would weigh 37.83% its weight on earth. Therefore, a person would be much lighter on mars. A person is about 62.17% heavier on earth than on Mars.

Andrews [41]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no = 75

N (P) = 48 , N (H) = 45 , N (T) = 58

N (P∩H) = 28 , N (H∩T) = 37 , N (P∩T) = 40

N (P∩H∩T) = 25

Total no = N (P) + N (H) + N (T) - N (P∩H)  -  N (H∩T) - N (P∩T) + N (P∩H∩T) + neither

75 = 48 + 45 + 58 - 28 - 37 - 40 + 25 + neither

75 = 71 + neither → neither = 4

N (only P) = N (P) - N (P∩H)  - N (P∩T)  + N (P∩H∩T) = 48 - 28 - 40 + 25 = 5

N (only H) = N (H) - N (P∩H) - N (H∩T) +  N (P∩H∩T) = 45 - 28 - 37 + 25 = 5

N (only T) = N (T) - N (H∩T) - N (P∩T) + N (P∩H∩T) = 58 - 37 - 40 + 25 = 6

So, total liking either one or neither = 4 + 5 + 5 + 6 = 20

If 2x − 4(x + 1) = −12, evaluate x2 − 1.
Vlad [161]
2x-4(x+1)=-13
1) we solve this equation:
2x-4(x+1)=-12
2x-4x-4=-12
-2x=-12+4
-2x=-8
x=-8/-2
x=4

2) we evalute x²-1
x²-1=4²-1=16-1=15
