Answer:

4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of 144 is 12 (12 x 12 = 144) so we know our sides of the square are 12 cm²

12 / 3 = 4

( $\frac{12}{1} x \frac{1}{3}$ )

The sides of the new square are 4 :)

Hope this helps and is correct, have a nice day! :D

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is $\frac { 4 } { 4 9 }$ .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are to find the probability that both your parents were born on weekend (either Saturday or Sunday).

Total number of days in a week = $7$

Number of days in weekend = $2$

Probability of being born on weekend = $\frac { 2 } { 7 }$

P (both parents were born on weekend) = $\frac{2}{7} \times \frac{2}{7}$ = 4/49

Ksenya-84 [330]

We have equation:
t=20x+31
x is number of years after 1997.

To calculate number of laptops in 2005:
x=2005-1997
x=8

t=20*8+31
t=160+31
t=191

In year 2005 school had 191 laptops.
