Answer:

The short piece is 46 inches long.

The long piece is 230 inches long.

Step-by-step explanation:

 

a + b = 276

 

5b + b = 276   ---------------- substitute a = 5b

 

6b = 276 ---------------Divide both sides by 6

 

6b/6 = 276/6

 

b = 46.

 

Substitute b = 46 to find a.

 

a + b = 276

a + 46 = 276

a = 230.

In a version of the game of roulette, a steel ball is rolled onto a wheel that contains 19 red, 19 black and 2 green slots. If t
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The probability is 0.3576

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability for the ball to fall into the green ball in one roll is 2/1919+2 = 2/40 = 1/20. The probability for the ball to roll into other color is, therefore, 19/20.

For 25 rolls, the probability for the ball to never fall into the green color is obteined by powering 19/20 25 times, hence it is 19/20^25 = 0.2773

To obtain the probability of the ball to fall once into the green color, we need to multiply 1/20 by 19/20 powered 24 times, and then multiply by 25 (this corresponds on the total possible positions for the green roll). The result is 1/20* (19/20)^24 *25 = 0.3649

The exercise is asking us the probability for the ball to fall into the green color at least twice. We can calculate it by substracting from 1 the probability of the complementary event: the event in which the ball falls only once or 0 times. That probability is obtained from summing the disjoint events: the probability for the ball falling once and the probability of the ball never falling. We alredy computed those probabilities.

As a result. The probability that the ball falls into the green slot at least twice is 1- 0.2773-0.3629 = 0.3576

Determine the gradient and the y-intersect point of:
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

gradient:

3x+2y=5

3(1)+2dy/dx=0

3+2dy/dx=0

2dy/dx=-3

dy/dx=-3/2.

y-intersect:

3x+2y=5

2y=5-3x

y=5-3x/2

Michael got a loan for the Playstation 5. His loan was $600. At a 3.75% interest rate he had to pay $7.50 in interest. How long
Semmy [17]

Answer:

4 mo.

Step-by-step explanation:

I = PRT      P = 600    R = .0375    I = 7.50

7.50 = 600(.0375)T

7.5 = 22.5T

T = 7.5/22.5 = 1/3 yr = 4 mo.

A home’s value increases at an average rate of 5.5% each year. The current value is $120,000. What function can be used to find
notsponge [240]
So we need to cover 5.5% into a decimal. 

0.055 = 5.5%

The house value is 120,000.
So 

(1.055x) * (120,000)= 

So

f(x)=1.055x * 120,000
