Answer:

60 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length x width

Area is constant at 1440 in^2

For first rectangle: W1 and L1

For second rectangle: W2 and L2

W1 = 32 in

W2 = W1 - 8 in = 24 in

1440 in^2 = L1 x 32 in = L2 x 24 in

L1 = 45 in

L2 = 60 in

Elan Coil [88]
The experimental data suggest that

\mathbb P(\text{red})\approx\dfrac{38}{75}
\mathbb P(\text{blue})\approx\dfrac{23}{75}
\mathbb P(\text{green})\approx\dfrac{11}{75}
\mathbb P(\text{yellow})\approx\dfrac3{75}

Because the marble is replaced after being drawn, and so the number of marbles of a given color remains the same, the event of drawing any given color is independent of what was drawn before. So

\mathbb P(\text{2 consecutive yellows})\approx\dfrac3{75}\cdot\dfrac3{75}=\dfrac1{625}

13. Mis the midpoint of PR, PM = 2x + 5, and MR = 4x – 7. Solve for x and find PR.
enyata [817]

Add 2x + 5 and 4x - 7

Then you isolate the variable or “get rid of” the numbers that re stopping you from getting “x”.

By doing the inverse operation.

If you add ___ you subtract ____ it form itself

If you subtract ___ you add ____ To itself.

So you Cancel out by getting rid of the other numbers.

Same thing with multiplying and dividing.

If you multiply ____ you divide___ but don’t divide “x”

Only the integer.

If you divide _____ you multiply ____ it
