Answer: (2) /3

Step-by-step explanation:

#1 Way: Solve by a proportion

Let x be the unknown number

Given

8/12=x/3

Cross-multiply

12x=24

x=2

Ans: (2)/3

----------------------------------------------------------

#2 Way: Look at the product between numbers

Given

8/12=?/3

From this, we can see the difference (quotient) between the known value 3 and 12 is 4, meaning 12÷3=4.

Applying the same factor, 8÷4=2

Ans: (2)/3

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

28 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, given triangles have same perimeters.

\therefore \: 5x + 5x + 3x + 2 = 6x + 3 + 2x + 1 + 4x \\  \\ 13x + 2 = 12x + 4 \\  \\ 13x - 12x = 4 - 2 \\  \\ x =  2 \\  \\ \implies 12x + 2 = 12( 2) + 4 = 24 + 4 = 28 \: units \\  \\ \&\: 13x + 2 =13(2) + 2 = 26 + 2 = 28  \: units\\  \\

So perimeter of each triangle is 28 units

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

0.3164 = 31.64% probability the team wins all its conference games

Step-by-step explanation:

For each conference game, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the team wins it, or they lose. The probability of winning a game is independent of any other game. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

A football team has a probability of .75 of winning when playing any of the other four teams in its conference.

The probability means that p = 0.75, and four games means that n = 4

If the games are independent, what is the probability the team wins all its conference games?

This is P(X = 4). So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 4) = C_{4,4}.(0.75)^{4}.(0.25)^{0} = 0.3164

0.3164 = 31.64% probability the team wins all its conference games

4x square+ 8 x - 5=0<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%20%7Bx%7D%5E%7B2%7D%20%20%2B%208x%20-%205%20%3D%200" id="TexFormula1

Answer:

x = \frac{1}{2}

x = -\frac{5}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve Using the Quadratic Formula

     4x^2 + 8x − 5 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions.

    −b ± √b^2 − 4 (ac)

     -------------------------

               2a

Substitute the values a = 4, b = 8, and c = −5 into the quadratic formula and solve for x.

    −8 ± √82 − 4 ⋅ (4 ⋅ −5)

     -------------------------

              2 ⋅ 4

Simplify the numerator.

Raise 8 to the p ower of 2.

     −8 ± √64 − 4 ⋅ 4 ⋅ −5

x=     ---------------------------

               2 ⋅ 4

Multiply −4 by 4.

        −8 ± √64 − 16 ⋅ −5

x =       -------------------------

                2 ⋅ 4

Multiply −16 by −5.

        −8 ± √64 + 80

x =       -------------------

               2 ⋅ 4

Add 64 and 80.

        −8 ± √144

x =        --------------

             2 ⋅ 4

Rewrite 144 as 12^2.

        −8 ± √122

x =       ------------

            2 ⋅ 4

Pull terms out from under the radical, assuming positive real numbers.

multiply 2 by 4          

        −8 ± 12

x=     ------------

            8

simplify

    −2 ± 3

x=   ---------

        2

The final answer is the combination of both solutions.

x= 1/2, -5/2

Hope this helped!
