We can use the distributive property for this:
4 (p+2) = 28
4p + 8 = 28.
4p = 28 - 8.
4p = 24.
Divide by 4 on both sides:
p = 6
Answer:
50 stuffed animals and 22 mystery boxes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we assign variables.
Let the number of stuffed animals be x and the number of mystery boxes is y
The probability of selecting a stuffed animal is x/72 while the probability is selecting a mystery box is y/72
Now, since the total probability can be 1:
This means that
x/72 + y/72 = 1 •••••••(i)
Answer:
600 ft cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle volume formula V = 1/2(l*w*h)
1/2(4*12*9) = 216 ft cubed
Formula for rectangular prism V = (l*w*h)
(4*16*6) = 384 ft cubed
Adding the values: 600 ft
