Answer:

LM = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

BC = 4

CD is twice that, so CD is 8

Now, remembering that the area of ABCD = 32 and JKLM = 72, divide 72 by 32.

You get 2.25. This is how much bigger JKLM is than ABCD.

Using that, multiply the length of CD (which is 8) by 2.25 to get the length of LM.

You'll get 18.

Hope this helps!

Answer: 1,356 tickets

12x=16,272

divide by 12 on both sides

12x÷12=16,272÷12

x=16,272÷12

x=1,356

Expand and simplify 2(a + 3) + 3(2a - 1)
Svetlanka [38]
2(a+3) + 3(2a-1)
First, let's use the distributive property to expand 2(a+3):
2(a+3) = 2*a + 2*3 = 2a + 6
Let's use the distributive property now to expand 3(2a-1):
3(2a - 1) = 3*2a - 3*1 = 6a - 3

So 2(a+3) + 3(2a-1) = 2a + 6 + 6a - 3
Now you calculate variables between each others, and numbers between each others:
2a + 6 + 6a - 3 = 2a + 6a + 6 - 3 = 8a + 3

So the simplified form of 2(a+3) + 3(2a-1) is 8a + 3.

Hope this Helps! :)

gregori [183]
<h3>Answer:  3/5</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

The set {1, 2}U{2, 6, 7, 9}U{5, 6, 7} simplifies to {1,2,5,6,7,9} after we combine everything and sort the values. We toss any duplicates.

Let B = {1,2,5,6,7,9}

There are 6 items in set B out of 10 items in set A.

The probability of landing in set B, if you pick something randomly from A, is 6/10 = 3/5
