Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of a rectangle  = twice the length  plus  twice the width

P = 2L + 2W    equation 1      P = 86 ft

Given the length is seven feet more than the width

L = W + 7         equation 2

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

P = 2(W+7) + 2W    =  86 ft

     2W +14 + 2W    =  86 ft

     4W    =  86  - 14

        W   =  72 / 4

        W   =  18 feet

Write an equation for the line parallel to y = -7x + 15 that passes through the point P(9,-6).
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

y = -7x + 57

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is parallel, it will have the same slope. So, this line will also have a slope of -7.

Use y = mx + b, plug in the slope and given point, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

-6 = -7(9) + b

-6 = -63 + b

57 = b

Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b:

y = mx + b

y = -7x + 57

So, the equation is y = -7x + 57

Let X be the random variable denoting the number of girls that are born. Then X has a binomial distribution on n=125 babies and probability of getting a girl p=0.5. The probability we want is

\mathbb P(X\ge60)=\displaystyle\sum_{x=60}^{125}\binom{125}x0.5^{125-x}0.5^x\approx0.704=70.4\%

Dante and Mia have a total of 350 pennies in their piggy banks, altogether. After Dante lost half of his pennies and Mia lost on
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

150 pennies were lost altogether

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial number of pennies owned by Dante be x pennies

Let the initial number of pennies owned by Mia be y pennies

Mathematically ;

x + y = 350 •••••••(i)

So after losing half, dante will have x/2 pennies left.

Mia lost 1/3 so she will have 2/3y left

So after all the losses, they both had equal amount of pennies

This means that;

x/2 = 2y/3

Cross multiply;

3x = 4y •••••••(ii)

Let’s solve both equations simultaneously;

From i , x = 350-y

Substitute this into equation ii

3(350-y) = 4y

1050-3y = 4y

7y = 1050

y = 1050/7

y = 150

since x = 350-y

x = 350-150 = 200

Now Dante loss x/2 = 200/2 = 100

Mia lost 1/3y = 1/3 * 150 = 50

Total pennies lost = 100 + 50 = 150
