Answer:

[(6 + x) / 13+x] = 0.65

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of games = 13

Number of correct prediction = 6

Number of correct predictions needed to raise prediction % to 65%

(Number of correct predictions) / (total number of games) = 0.65

Let x = number of additional consecutive correct predictions

[(6 + x) / 13+x] = 0.65

Where x = number of consecutive predictions required

6 + x = (13 + x) * 0.65

6 + x = 8.45 + 0.65x

x - 0.65x = 8.45 - 6

0.35x = 2.45

x = 2.45 / 0.35

x = 7

7 consecutive correct predictions

A wire is first bent into the shape of a square. Each side of the square is 9cm long. Then the wire is unbent and reshaped into
EastWind [94]

Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter of a square with sides of 9 cm is 36 cm so the rectangle must have the same perimeter

if the length of the rectangle is 13cm, its opposite side is also 13cm

add 13 + 13 to get 26

let 'n' = width of rectangle

perimeter = 26 + n + n

36 = 26 + 2n

2n = 10

n = 5
