Answer:

The shorter piece is 39 inches long.

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio = 3 : 1

3+1=4

156/4 = 39

just to check:

39 x 3 = 117 (the lenght of the longer piece)

117 + 39 =156

hope this helps

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

h(g(2)) = h( 2²) = h(4) ; because g(x=2) = 2²

h(4) = 5*4+1 = 21

Svetach [21]

Function P . . . . . y = 5x + 3

Function Q . . . . . y = 2x + 4

Function P rate of change = 5
Function Q rate of change = 2

Julie has 5 cherry lollipops,1 lime lollipops, and 2 grape lollipops in a bag. She is going to select one lollipop, replace the

Georgia [21]

Answer: $\dfrac{15}{32}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of cherry lollipop = 5

The total number of lollipop = 8

the number of lollipops other than grape =6

The probability of selecting a cherry lollipop is given by :_

$\text{P(Cherry)}=\dfrac{5}{8}$

The probability of selecting a lollipop other than grape is given by :_

$\text{P(Other than grape)}=\dfrac{6}{8}$

Since, there is replacement , then the events are independent of each other.

Now, the probability that Julie will select a cherry lollipop and then a lollipop other than grape is given by :-

$\text{P(Cherry and other than grape)}=\dfrac{5}{8}\times\dfrac{6}{8}=\dfrac{15}{32}$

Hence, the required probability = $\dfrac{15}{32}$

Si Martha retira de su cuenta el 10% para los transportes del mes. ¿Cuál es el nuevo saldo de la cuenta?

notsponge [240]

Respuesta:

0,9 veces

Explicación paso a paso:

Deje que la cantidad en la cuenta de Martha se denote como x, que es la cantidad en la cuenta = x

Porcentaje retirado para transporte = 10%

El porcentaje total siempre será del 100%

Por lo tanto, si se retira el 10%, entonces; el porcentaje restante es:

Porcentaje total: porcentaje gastado en transporte

(100% - 10%) * monto en cuenta

90% * x = 0,9 * x = 0,9x

Saldo de cuenta nueva = 0.9x
