Answer:

No. She should have multiplied 12 and One-half to solve

6 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of girls = 12

Each girl needs = 1/2 yard of strings

Suzie workings:

12/1 ÷ 1/2

= 12/1 × 2/1

= 24/1

= 24 yards

No. She should have multiplied 12 and One-half to solve

Correct workings:

Total strings needed for 12 girls = 12 × 1/2 yards

= (12*1)/2

= 12/2

= 6 yards

otez555 [7]

Answer:

The selection probability to be assigned to each of the package designs is 0.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to assume that one design is just as likely to be selected by a consumer as any other design

so the probability of selecting any of the design is same and that is 1/5 = 0.20

Thus, what we are trying to say is that each of the package designs have an equal selection probability of 0.20

Answer:

This is a Right Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

12=a 16=b 20=c

Now lets solve

a^2+b^2=c^2

144+b^2=c^2

144+256=c^2

144+256=400

c^2=400

The square root of 400 is 20..

This IS a Right Triangle

Question 1 of 3 NE A scale drawing of a fishing boat has a scale of 1 cmn to 2 meters. If the length of the fishing boat is 6 cm
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

12 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Scale= 1cm:2m

Required

Determine the measurement when the scale reads 6cm

Represent this scale with x;

Such that:

Scale = 6cm:x

Equate

Scale= 1cm:2m and Scale = 6cm:x

1cm:2m = 6cm:x

Express as fraction

\frac{1cm}{2m} = \frac{6cm}{x}

Cross Multiply

x * 1cm = 6cm * 2m

x * 1 = 6 * 2m

x = 6 * 2m

x = 12m
