Answer:  1/ 233856 chance changed to 233856  x 2 = 467712

= 1 / 467712 chance as there are 2 drawings

Workings;

1 and 65 = 64

1 and 65 - 1 ball drawn = 63

1 and 60 -1 = 58

1/64 x 1/63 x 1/58 = 233856

1/4032 x 1/58 and to make these the same we 4038/58 =  69.62

then convert properly = 1/4032  x 69.62/4032 4032 x 4032 = 69.62/16257024 then 16257024/69.62 =233510.83

= 233511 chance if rounding before

1/ (233511 x 2) = 1/467022

Then one part is our actual probability

P) = 1/233856

But as they specified a special drawing

you need to repeat this as 64 x 63 x 58 x 2 as the last one cannot be in 1 drawing it has to be in 2nd drawing

233856  x 2 = 467712

= 1 / 467712 chance not rounding down before hand.

(-2h3n2)(-5h2n2)<br> How
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer: 9h x 8n^2

we rearrange this underneath the question (-5h-2h) (2nx3n)(2+2) or if 2^2 see explanation. It must therefore be 7h6n4

Step-by-step explanation:

if its ^2 )(power2) then the second reasonable answer is (7h-2h)(2n^2 x 2n^2)=9h x 4n^2 x4n^2 =9h 8n^2 or 17hn^2 but i leave as 9h 8n^2

You can expand only if multiplying 9hx4 for example but not combine the letters. The questions that ask you to mix are much different to this. but if you want to add them 9h+8n^2 =17hn^2

Tracy needs to find the length and width of the equipment storage room where she works. The room is 2 meters longer than it is w
____ [38]

Answer:

3 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the storage room is a rectangle, like most rooms, no indication it is otherwise.

We know it's a rectangle and not a square because it is longer than wide.

We have the perimeter measurement (16 meters).

So, we can make the following equation:

2x + 2y = 16

x being the width of the room, y being it's length.  A perimeter is the sum of all sides.

We also know the room is 2 meters longer than wide... so:

y = x + 2

If we replace y in the first equation by its value relative to x, we get:

2x + 2(x + 2) = 16 which becomes

2x + 2x + 4 = 16

4x =12

thus x = 3

Width: 3 meters

Length: 5 meters.

Confirms the 16 meters perimeter.
