Answer:

Orange rose = 2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find probability of picking one item, you add all the possible things you could choose. So, 3+2+4 equals a total of 9 outcomes, and that would be your denominator for your fraction of probability. From there it's really easy. Just put the amount of things your trying to find the probability for in the numerator spot.

Ex.

There are 9 total roses so that would be the denominator (?/9)

To find out the probability for picking an orange rose, you'd put the 2 in as the numerator because that is the total number of orange roses you have (2/?)

Then just put the two together (2/9).

How do I fine the perimeter of these triangles?
arsen [322]

constant of proportionality => COP

3: P(triangle ABC) = 84

COP = 18/15 = 1.2

Since you are finding the larger triangle, multiply the other numbers by 1.2

25 * 1.2 = 30

28 * 1.2 = 33.6

17 * 1.2 = 20.4

add them all up (answer up top)

5: P(triangle ABC) = 61.2

COP = 9/5 = 1.8

Since you are finding the larger triangle, multiply the other numbers by 1.8

9 * 1.8 = 16.2

13 * 1.8 = 23.4

12 * 1.8 = 21.6

add them all up (answer up top)

6: P(triangle RST) = 110

RP and PT are congruent, this means that PT is also 20

COP = 40/20 = 2

Since you are finding the larger triangle, multiply the other numbers by 2

25 * 2 = 50

20 * 2 = 40

10 * 2 = 20

add them all up (answer up top)

Help please I’m confused
tiny-mole [99]
3y= 21

I think 3y would be 21 because in the equation, 5y+13=48, y= 7. So if we know that y is 7 that’ll mean we’ll use 7 to interpret y for 3y.

How many base pieces 8 1/4 inches long and 8 1/4 inches wide can Mr. Penny cut from a wooden plank 4 1/8 feet long and 4 1/8 fee
podryga [215]

Answer:

36 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

4 1/8 ft x 4 1/8 ft = 49.5 in x 49.5 in = 2450.25 in^2

8.25 in x 8.25 in = 68.06 in^2

2450.25/68.06 = 36 pieces

checking for scrap loss:

49.5/8.25 = 6

so no scrap loss
