The image for this is attached for reference. This problem can be used by the Pythagorean equation. To make solving convenient, let us see only one part of the tent. Hence, one side is half of the tend width which is 16/2ft. Height is 12 ft. The unknown side is the hypotenuse. The answer is:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The step shown indicates that y was eliminated from the equations. For choices A, B, D, this is done by adding the equations together (the y-coefficients are opposites). The result of doing that gives x-terms of 4x, 0x, and 0x, respectively. These x-terms do not match the one given: 2x.
For choice C, the y-term is eliminated by subtracting twice the second equation from the first. Doing that gives ...
(4x +2y) -2(x +y) = (14) -2(3)
4x +2y -2x -2y = 14 -6 . . . . eliminate parentheses
2x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
Answer:
5/9
Step-by-step explanation:
complement means not choosing an orange
P( not choosing orange) = (apple and fruit) / total
= (4+6) / (4+6+8)
=10/18
= 5/9
