Answer:

The sides are 8.26 m and 7.26 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides are x and x - 1

x(x - 1) = 60
x² - x - 60 = 0
x = ( 1 + $\sqrt{1 - 4*(-60)}$ )/2 ≈ 8.26 m

How many ways can a 7 question multiple choice test be answered? (assume that there are 5 possible responses per question?

sweet [91]

I am assuming that you can only pick one answer per question.

Let's imagine there are two questions on the test. I would:

1) Consider the first question. How many possible ways could you answer it?

2) Consider the second question. How many ways can you answer that?

If you wrote out all the possibilities, how many combinations of answers would you get across the two questions?

In a store, a sample of 60 pens was selected from a box of 1,200 pens. Of these 60, 4 pens did not work. About how many pens cou

Lapatulllka [165]

Ok so if 1200 total pens and 60 were taken that's a ratio of 1200/60=20

out of 60pens 4 didn't work, again ratio is 4/60=1/15 so about 1/15 of the pens didn't work.

so we have 1200pens * 1/15broken ratio = 80 pens or we can say

20*4=80pens won't work from 20 groups of 60 and 4 out of 60 not working is 20*4=80 not working from total batch of 1200.

hope this helps you some! thank you!!!!!!!!!

(-4)(-4) use an exponent to rewrite the expression

DiKsa [7]

For this case we have the following expression:
<span> $(-4)(-4) 
$
By properties of exponents we have:
Same basis, the exponents are added.
We have then:
$(-4)^{1+1}$
Then, rewriting the exponent we have:
$(-4)^{2}$
Therefore, an exponent to rewrite the expression is:
2
Answer:
$(-4)^{2}$
an exponent to rewrite the expression is 2.</span>
