Answer:

20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract the total from what was left

$95 - 15 = 80$

Step 2: Divide the result into the 4 pieces

$80 \div 4$

$=\frac{80}{4}$

$= 20$

Each of the four pieces Lily cut was 20 inches.

Each was 10 inches because she had 95 and 95-15=40 divided by 4 = 10

Sixty seven percent of the employees in a company have managerial positions, and 58 percent of the employees in the company have

Kazeer [188]

Answer: The proportion of employees who either have MBAs or are managers are 0.58.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of employees having managerial positions = 67%

Probability of employees having MBA degrees = 58%

Probability of managers having MBA degrees = 67%

So, using probability formulas, we get that

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\P(A\cup B)=0.67+0.58-0.67\\\\P(A\cup B)=0.58$

Hence, the proportion of employees who either have MBAs or are managers are 0.58.

in parallelogram JKLM, the ratio of the measure of angle J to the measure of angle M is 5:4. Find the measurement of angle J and

Helga [31]

Since we know that these two are consecutive angles and consecutive angles add up to 180 deg, we can come up with the equation 4x +5x =180. Solving this out shows us that x = 20 and the measure of angle J is 100 deg while the measure of angle M is 80 deg.
