1 2/5 - (-3/5)
First, we're going to convert 1 2/5 into an improper fraction.
1 2/5 = 7/5
7/5 - (-3/5)
Subtracting a negative is the same as adding, so the problem will look like:
7/5 + 3/5
The denominators are the same, so we just add the numerators.
The answer is 10/5, or 2.
Are you trying to simplify the equation? if so, combine the like terms on each side first. -3x + 3 = -2 + 2x. Then simplify, -5x = -5. And solve, x = 1
Answer:
The number of expected people at the concert is 8,500 people
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to determine the expected number of people that will attend a concert if we are given the probabilities that it will rain and it will not rain.
We proceed as follows;
The probability that it will rain is 30% or 0:3
The probability that it will not rain would be 1 -0.3 = 0.7
Now, we proceed to calculate the number of people that will attend by multiplying the probabilities by the expected number of people when it rains and when it does not rain.
Mathematically this is;
Number of expected guests = (probability of not raining * number of expected guests when it does not rain) + (probability of raining * number of expected guests when it rains)
Let’s plug values;
Number of expected guests = (0.3 * 5,000) + (0.7 * 10,000) = 1,500 + 7,000 = 8,500 people
11/8 or 13/8 is the answer.
Answer:
The correct option is;
Yes, the line should be perpendicular to one of the rectangular faces
Step-by-step explanation:
The given information are;
A triangular prism lying on a rectangular base and a line drawn along the slant height
A perpendicular bisector should therefore be perpendicular with reference to the base of the triangular prism such that the cross section will be congruent to the triangular faces
Therefore Marco is correct and the correct option is yes, the line should be perpendicular to one of the rectangular faces (the face the prism is lying on).
