Step-by-step explanation:
Of the 28 students, 5 are female. So the probability is 5/28.
Answer:
CU = 117
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
substituting in values to the ratios
=
( cross- multiply )
24(36x - 1) = 3432 ( divide both sides by 24 )
36x - 1 = 143 ( add 1 to both sides )
36x = 144 ( divide both sides by 36 )
x = 4
CU = 36x - 1 - 26 = (36 × 4) - 27 = 144 - 27 = 117

Step-by-step explanation:
STEP 1:
convert meters to centimeters
100 cm= 1 meter
= 100 cm/m * 2.5 m
= 250 cm
STEP 2:
x= length of first shelf
2x+18= length of second shelf
x-12= length of third shelf
x+4= length of fourth shelf
since the whole board has to be used, add lengths of all shelves and set it equal to the whole length of the board (250 cm).
x + (2x+18) + (x-12) + (x+4)= 250 cm
combine like terms
5x + 10= 250
subtract both sides by 10
5x= 240
divide both sides by 5
x= 48
STEP 3:
find length of second shelf
= 2x + 18
= 2(48) + 18
= 114 cm
CHECK:
x + (2x+18) + (x-12) + (x+4)= 250
48 + (2(48)+18) + (48-12) + (48+4)= 250
48 + (96+18) + 36 + 52= 250
48 + 114 + 36 + 52= 250
250= 250
ANSWER: Shelf two is 114 cm.
Hope this helps! :)
