Anyone know what the answer is?

Max ran two miles each day for 4days. Then he ran 3 miles each day for the next 4 days. How many miles did Max run altogether in

svp [43]

4 days • 2 miles = 8 miles
4 days • 3 miles = 12 miles
8 miles + 12 miles = 20 miles in total for all 8 days

A bicycle cost $ 129.50. You pay $7.77 in sales tax. What is the tax rate?

viva [34]

7.77/129.5 = 0.06
Therefore the tax rate is 6%

EFGH is a parallelogram. Find the measure of FG and EG <br>

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

FG = 44

EG = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

For FG:

1) 5z - 16 = 3z + 8

2) 5z = 3z + 24

3) 2z = 24

4) z = 12

5) 3(12) + 8 = 44

For EG:

1) 2w + 22 = 4w + 4

2) 2w = 4w - 18

3) -2w = -18

4) w = 9

5) 4(9) + 4 + 2w + 22 = 80

There are 3 red and 8 green balls in a bag. If you randomly choose balls one at a time, with replacement, what is the probabilit

Kaylis [27]

So, the total number of balls is 11. We want to pick 2 red balls and 1 green ball. WLOG (since order doesnt matter here), we can say he picks red, green, red. That means on his first pick, he has a $\frac{3}{11}$ chance of picking the red ball, and he places it back in the bag. The probability of picking a green ball is $\frac{8}{11}$ , and then he places the ball back in the bag. The probability of picking the last red ball is the same as the last red ball example, and we simply multiply the probabilities together as per the multiplication rule to get:

$\frac{3}{11}\frac{3}{11}\frac{8}{11}=\frac{3*3*8}{11^3}=\frac{72}{1331}$

Now, without replacement the order does matter. He picks a red ball, a red ball then a green ball. The probability of picking the first red ball is $\frac{2}{11}$ , and the probability of picking the second red ball is $\frac{1}{10}$ and the probability of picking the green ball is $\frac{1}{9}$ . We want to multiply thm again, as per the multiplication rule like the last problem.

$\frac{2}{11}*\frac{1}{10}*\frac{1}{9}=\frac{1}{11*5*9}=\frac{1}{495}$

Select the correct answer. Sean and Colleen are raking leaves in their yard. Working together, they can clear the yard of leaves

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of minutes it would take colleen to finish the job when he is working alone. Hence, it can be represented by the equation:

$\frac{1}{c}+\frac{1}{c+20} =\frac{1}{24} \\\\Finding\ the\ L.C.M\ of\ the\ fraction\ to\ get\ 24c(c+20)\ as\ the\ L.C.M.\\Multiply\ the\ whole\ equation\ by\ 24c(c+20):\\\\\frac{1}{c}(24c(c+20))+\frac{1}{c+20}(24c(c+20)) =\frac{1}{24}(24c(c+20)) \\\\24c+480+24c=c^2+20c\\\\48c+480=c^2+20c\\\\c^2+20c-48c-480=0\\\\c^2-28c-480=0$

Solving the quadratic equation to get c gives:

c = -12 and c = 40

Since the time cannot be negative, hence c = 40 minutes.

It would take colleen 40 minutes to clear the yard of leaves alone
