Answer:

The height is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios are just fractions. That being said, you also have part of a fraction. You know that the colorado flag is in 2:3, and 12 feet long is according to that ratio; it equals each other.

Make the equation.

$\frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{12}$

Now isolate x (in order to solve for it)

$12 * \frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{12}*12\\8 = x$

x= 8

The height is 8.

8/12 = 2/3 ✅

Determine the probability of a negative result for a batch of size 10 if the positivity rate

Vlad1618 [11]

The probability of a negative result for a batch will be "0.3487".

Given values are:

Positivity rate,

p = 10% or, 0.1

Batch size,

n = 10

Now,

The probability of negative result will be:

→ $P (batch \ negative) = (1-p)^n$

By substituting the values, we get

→ $=(1-0.1)^{10}$

→ $= (0.9)^{10}$

→ $= 0.3487$

Thus the answer above is right.

Mrs. CADY CONSTRUCTS A CUBE WITH 512 MAGNETIC BLOCKS. STUDENTS IN HER TWO CLASSES WILL EACH MAKE AN IDENTICAL CUBE. THERE ARE 28

Lilit [14]

YOU DON"T HAVE TO YELL

512 PER STUDENT

BASICALLY,
CUBES NEEDED=CUBES PER STUDENT TIMES NUMBER OF STUDENTS

NUMBER OF STUDENTS=28+25=53

CUBES PER STUDENT=512

CUBES NEEDED=512 TIMES 53 EQUALS 27136 CUBES

SHE NEEDS 27136 CUBES FOR ALL HER STUDENTS

-8x^2+4x+5=0 using quadratic formula

daser333 [38]

So you want to solve for x?

It would be nice if this would easily factor:
(-4x + 5)(2x +1) = 0    This will not work!

So you need to use the quadratic formula:
a = -8, b = 4, c = 5

$x = \frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}$

x = (-4 +/- $\sqrt{16-4(-8)(5)}$ )/2(-8)
   = (-4 +/- $\sqrt{16 + 160}$ )/-16
   = (-4 + $\sqrt{176}$ )/-16
   = 1/4 - $\sqrt{11}$ /4

Answer:

6. c = 5

7. b = 8

8. a = 0.75

9. b = 12

10. c = 0.5

11. c = 17

12. b = 1.34

13. a = 4.5

14. a = 1.2

15. c = 6.1

16. b = 15

17. c = 41

18. a = 7

19. c = 8.5

20. b = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use Pythagorean theorem. Put the number for a in a, b in b, and c in c. DON'T forget to square a, b, and c.
