Answer: Jarrah has to rake 25 bags.

Step-by-step explanation: Jarrah

Jarrah needs to get $159 dollars, right? Well since he already has $38, we just need to subtract 159 and 38. 159-38 is 121. (121 is how much heneeds )Each bag raked costs $5, and 5 can't go into 121, so it's best to have more than less. Multiply 5 and 25, and you will get $125. That is more than enough, you cannot do 5x24 because it would be 120, which is too low. Therefore, Jarrah needs to rake 25 bags.

a fair (6 sided) die is rolled TWO times. What is the probability that the first die is a 2 or the second die is a prime

alexdok [17]

Answer:

The probability that the first die is a 2 or the second die is a prime = 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,a fair (6 sided) die is rolled TWO times.

The sample space for rolling 2 dies

(1, 1), (1, 2) .......... (1,6)

(2,1) ..........................

(6, 1) ..........................(6, 6)

There are total of 6^2 = 36 sample space

To find the probability

The prime numbers from 1 to 6 are 2, 3 and 5

the possible outcomes are(2,1), (2, 3) and (2, 5)

The probability that the first die is a 2 or the second die is a prime = 3/36 = 1/12

Hunter installed tiles on a floor with a length of 12 feet and a width of 9 feet in

salantis [7]

I don’t know if you meant 7 hours or 7 1/2 hours, but if it was in 7 hours, the answer would be around 15 square feet. If it was 7 1/2 hours, it would be 14 square feet.

Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Solving systems of equations by graphing

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

16x + 14y = 8

-63x - 14y = 133

Step 2: Solve for x

Elimination

Combine 2 equations: -47x = 141
Divide -47 on both sides: x = -3

Step 3: Solve for y

Define original equation: 16x + 14y = 8
Substitute in x: 16(-3) + 14y = 8
Evaluate multiplication: -48 + 14y = 8
Add 48 on both sides: 14y = 56
Divide 14 on both sides: y = 4

Step 4: Graph Systems

Check the solution set.

Find the area of a polygon with vertices at (1,3), (7,3), (7,7), and (4,7).

Natasha2012 [34]

(1,3) and (7,3) falls on the same horizontal line. hence, the distance is just equal to 6 units. (7,3) and (7,7) meanwhile lie on the same vertical line. hence the distance is 4. (7,7) and (4,7) lie on the same horizontal line with a distance of 3.

Finally, to get back to point (1,3) - (4,7) ----> (1,3), 3 to the left and 4 down, the diagonal being 5.
6+4+3+5= 10 + 8 = 18.
