Answer:

60.75 ≈ 60.8

Step-by-step explanation:

4u-> 81

1u -> 20.25 (width)

3u-> 60.75 (length)

Answer:

W ≈ 5.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the length and width by L and W respectively.

Then L * W = 81 cm^2, and L = 3W.

Substituting 3W for L in the first equation, we get:

3W * W - 81 = 0, or 3W^2 - 81 = 0.

To make it easier to find the final answer, rewrite 3W^2 - 81 = 0 as

            81

W^2 = ------- = 27

              3

Then W (the width) is the positive square root of 27, or W ≈ 5.2 cm

Find the sum of the even integers from 20 to 50.<br><br><br>with solutions please help​
alina1380 [7]

Answer: 560

Step-by-step explanation:

There are [20, 22, 24, 26, 28]: 5 even integers for each ten numbers.

The 20's set can be written as 5*20 + (2+4 + 6 + 8) = 5*20 + (20) = 120

The 30's can be written: 5*30 + 20 = 170

40's: 5*40+20 = 220

50's: 5*50+20 = 270

60's: 5*60+20 = 320

Each set is incremented by 50

We want the sets for 20, 30, and 40, plus the number 50.

(120+170+220+50) = 560

You can also do this in Excel (attached). Set the first cell to 20, the next cell below equal to the cell above plus 2. Then draw the second cell down until you've reached 50. Then sum the cells to arrive at 560.

Can anyone help please
Akimi4 [234]

Answer: X = 27

Step-by-step explanation: If we observe very closely, we have two similar triangles in the diagram. The first one is ABC and the other triangle is EDC. Also take note that angle ACB in the first triangle is equal in measurement to angle ECD (45 degrees) in the other triangle, (Opposite angles).

Hence in triangle ECD, we have identified two angles so far which are angle 2x + 10 and angle 45. Same applies to triangle ABC, we already have two angles which are, 3x - 10 and 45.

However angle D in the second triangle is equal in measurement to angle B in the first triangle

(Alternate angles).

Hence we have a third angle in triangle ABC which is

Angle B = 2x + 10.

Therefore 3x - 10 + (2x + 10) + 45 = 180

(Sum of angles in a triangle)

3x - 10 + 2x + 10 + 45 = 180

By collecting like terms we now have

3x + 2x = 180 + 10 - 10 - 45

5x = 135

Divide both sides by 5,

x = 27

20 business cards are placed in a hat, 10 belong to women, 10 belong yo men If 2 cards are drawn at once. what's the probability
erik [133]

Answer:

First choice:

               \large\boxed{\large\boxed{5/19}}

Explanation:

<em>The probability that the first is a man's card and the second, a woman's card</em> is calculated as the product of both probabilities, taking into account the fact that the second time the number of cards  in the hat has changed.

In spite of it is said that the cards are drawn at once, since it is stated a specific order for the cards (first is a man's card and the second, a woman's card) you can model the procedure as if the cards were drawn consecutively, instead of at once.

<u>1. Probability that the first is a man's card</u>

  • Number of cards in the hat = 20 (the 20 business card)

  • Number of man's card in the hat: 10

  • Probability = favorable oucomes / possible outcomes = 10/20 = 1/2.

<u />

<u>2. Probability that the second is a woman's card</u>

  • Number of cards in the hat = 19 (there is one less card in the hat)

  • Number of wonan's card in the hat: 10

  • Probability = favorable oucomes / possible outcomes = 10/19.

<u>3. Probability that the first is a man's card and the second, a woman's card</u>

<u />

  • (1/2) × (10/19) = 5/19

That is the first choice.

Let f(x) = x2- 3x - 7. Find f(-3)
Alexxx [7]
F(x) = x^2 - 3x - 7
f(-3) = (-3)^ 2 - 3(-3) - 7
f(-3) = 9 + 9 - 7
f(-3) = 18 - 7
f(-3) = 11
