Answer: x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter´s formula for this kind of polygons is

The triangle perimeter would be:

(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+3)

And the rectangle:

(x+2)+(x+2)+x+x

For them to have the same value, we should equal them:

(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+3)=(x+2)+(x+2)+x+x

Working with this:

3x+8=4x+4

x=4

There is a proportional relationship between your distance from a thunderstorm and the time from when you see the lightning and

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation would be 3 = k*9 as there is a direct proportional relationship.

So k = 3/9 = 1/3 and we can write the relation as d = 1/3 t where d=distance and t = time.

So if we double the time t we have:-

d = 1/3 * 18

= 6 kilometers.

So the distance is doubled.

suppose 60% of kids who visit a doctor have a fever, and 20% of kids with a fever have sore throats. what's the probability that

kkurt [141]

Answer:

0.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose there are 100 kids

60% have fever, so what is 60% of 100?

We convert percentage to decimal and multiply:

60/100 = 0.6

0.6 * 100 = 60 have fever

20% of the people having fever (60 of them) have sore throats, so,

What is 20% of 60?

We convert percentage to decimal and multiply:

20/100 = 0.2

0.2 * 60 = 12 have sore throat

So, how many people are there with fever AND sore throat, that is 12. We took initially there to be 100 people. Hence, the probability is:

$\frac{12}{100}=0.12$
