Let a = longest side      
let b = shortest side
let c = third side

P = 14.5                     
a = 6.2
b = 1/2(a)

P = a + b + c
P = 6.2 + 3.1 + c        

P = 9.3 + c                

14.5 = 9.3 + c           
c = 14.5 - 9.3          
c = 5.2

Four students about to purchase concert tickets for $20.00 for each ticket discover that they may purchase a block of 5 tickets
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Each student's contribution = $17

Each student will save $ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of the block of 5 tickets is $85.00.

Dividing the $ 85 by 5 would give the equal amount each would have to contribute.

$ 85/5=$ 17

Each will have to pay $ 17 to buy a block of 5 tickets for $85.00.

We can find the amount each will save by subtracting the amount to be shared by the 5 students from the amount paid by the 4 students.

They will save

$ 20-$17=

$3

Each of them will save $3 if they can get a fifth person to join them and the 5 people equally divide the price of the 5-ticket block.

What is the length of side BC of the triangle? Enter your answer in the box. units Triangle A B C with horizontal side B C. Vert
harina [27]

Answer:

The length of BC = 28 units

Step-by-step explanation:

* In triangle ABC

∵ Angles B and C are congruent

∴ m∠B = m∠C

* In any triangle if two angles are equal in measure, then the triangle is isosceles means the two sides which opposite to the congruent angles are equal in length

∴ AB = AC

∵ AB = 4x - 7

∵ AC = 2x + 7

∴ 4x - 7 = 2x + 7 ⇒ collect like terms

∴ 4x - 2x = 7 + 7

∴ 2x = 14 ⇒ divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 14 ÷ 2 = 7

* Now we can find the length of BC

∵ The length of BC = 4x ⇒ substitute the value of x

∴ The length of BC = 4 × 7 = 28 units

You're pretty sure that your candidate for class president has about 55% of the votes in the entire school. but you're worried t
Pavlova-9 [17]
Part A:

A component is one voter's vote. An outcome is a vote in favour of our candidate.
Since there are 100 voters, we can stimulate the component by using two randon digits from 00 - 99, where the digits 00 - 54 represents a vote for our candidate and the digits 55 - 99 represents a vote for the underdog.



Part B:

A trial is 100 votes. We can stimulate the trial by randomly picking 100 two-digits numbers from 00 - 99. Whoever gets the majority of the votes wins the trial.



Part C:

The response variable is whether the underdog wants to win or not. To calculate the experimental probability, divide the number of trials in which the simulated underdog wins by the total number of trials.
