Answer:

Third Option: $\frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

When there are two negatives, the answer has to be positive, so it cannot be the first and second options. This fraction can be reduced, so:

- $\frac{1}{3}$ × - $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Each vertex has a single-letter label.

Each edge joins two vertices, and is named by naming those two vertices.

Each polygon is named by listing the vertices at its corners. It is a plane figure.

The base is the polygon opposite the point where all of the triangles come together.

16. figure: pentagonal pyramid ABCDEF

17. base: ABCDE

18. faces: ABF, BCF, CDF, DEF, AEF, ABCDE (the bottom face, or base)

19. edges: AB, BC, CD, DE, AE, FA, BF, CF, DF, EF

20. vertices: A, B, C, D, E, F

The length of the rectangle is twice its width. Write and solve a system of linear equations to find the length L and width W of

vazorg [7]

Answer:

The length is equal to 12 and the width is equal to 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the values here, we start by setting the width equal to x. Now knowing this, we know that the length is twice that long. Therefore, the length would be equal to 2x. Now we can use the perimeter formula to solve the equation.

2L + 2W = P

2(2x) + 2(x) = P

4x + 2x = 36

6x = 36

x = 6

Now with the given value for x, we can tell that the width is 6 and then we multiply it by 2 to get the length value (12).

Pat is required to sell candy bars to raise money for the 6th grade field trip. There is a 40% chance of him selling a candy bar

labwork [276]

Answer:

It will take him about 13 houses to sell the 5 candy bars.

Pat has an 18% chance of selling his last candy in the 11th house.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Pat is required to sell candy bars to raise money for the 6th grade field trip, and there is a 40% chance of him selling a candy bar at each house, and he has to sell 5 candy bars in all, to determine the number of houses it takes and determine the probability he sells his last candy bar at the 11th house, the following calculations must be performed:

5 / 0.40 = X

12.5 = X

So, it will take him about 13 houses to sell the 5 candy bars.

5/11 = X

0.45 = X

0.45 x 0.4 = 0.18

Thus, Pat has an 18% chance of selling his last candy in the 11th house.
