Answer: B. one-third

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of picking a red marble, P(R) = 1/6

Probability of picking a yellow marble, P(Y) = 1/2

Therefore, the probability of picking a blue marble will be:

= 1 - (P(R) + P(Y))

= 1 - (1/6 + 1/2)

= 1 - (4/6).

= 1 - 2/3

= 1/3

The probability of picking a blue marble will be one third

You plant a rectangular rose garden along the side of your garage. You enclose 3 sides of the garden with 40 feet of fencing. Th
solmaris [256]

Let's assume

length of rectangle =L

width of rectangle =W

You enclose 3 sides of the garden with 40 feet of fencing

so, we get

L+2W=40

now, we can solve for L

L=40-2W

we know that

area of rectangle is

A=L*W

100=L*W

now, we can plug

100=(40-2W)*W

now, we can solve for W

-2W^2+40W-100=0

we can use quadratic formula

W=\frac{-40+\sqrt{40^2-4\left(-2\right)\left(-100\right)}}{2\left(-2\right)}

W=\frac{-40-\sqrt{40^2-4\left(-2\right)\left(-100\right)}}{2\left(-2\right)}

we can take anyone value ..because both are giving positive value

first dimensions:

W=2.929

now, we can find L

L=40-2*2.929

L=34.142

so, length is 34.142feet

width is 2.929 feet

Second dimensions:

W=17.071

now, we can find L

L=40-2*17.071

L=5.858

so, length is 5.858feet

width is 17.071 feet

Solve for the value of n.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

n= 27

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve first subtract the 90-degree angle:

180-90= 90

Then, convert into an equation:

3n+9= 90

Subtract 9 from both sides:

3n=81

Then divide by 3:

n= 27

Hope this helps!

In the Isoceles triangle, the legs
aalyn [17]

Check the picture below.

since we know that x = 3/7, we can then plug that on either of the twin legs, since it's an isosceles, and get the length of each leg, so say let's plug it in 5x + 16

5x + 16\implies 5\left( \cfrac{3}{7} \right)+16\implies \cfrac{38}{7}+16\implies \cfrac{38+112}{7}\implies \cfrac{150}{7}\\\\[-0.35em]\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\\stackrel{\textit{both legs}}{\cfrac{150}{7}+\cfrac{150}{7}}+\stackrel{\textit{base}}{6}\implies \cfrac{150+150+42}{7}\implies \cfrac{342}{7}\implies 48\frac{6}{7}\impliedby \textit{perimeter}
