Isn’t this 12/4 of a mile of thread every hour? If the factory produces 3/4 of a mile of thread every 1/4 of an hour, then all you need to do is 3/4 x 4. 1/4 is like .25 so to make a whole number, you have to do .25 x4 which makes the whole. I don’t know if my explanation is correct or not but I do believe my answer is. (12/4 is 3)
The triangles are shown to be similar, therefore

The answer is 9 units
Good evening.
This is a
incomplete quadratic equation, because it does not have the term
bx. Therefore, we can solve this faster with the following strategy:

Add
16 to both sides:

Take the square root:

Therefore:
The probability that a high school student in in the marching band is 0.47
so, 
The probability that a student plays a varsity sport is 0.32
so, 
the probability that a student is in the marching band and plays a varsity sport is 0.24
so, we get
P(M∩V)=0.24
a student plays a varsity sport if we know she is in the marching band
so,
P(V|M)=(P(V∩M))/(P(M))
now, we can plug values
and we get


So,
the probability that a student plays a varsity sport if we know she is in the marching band is 0.51063......Answer
