Answer:
240 units squared
Step-by-step explanation: Pythagorean theorem and then multiply base times height / 2
All you need to do is plug in the point.
y=5x+b
(-2) = 5(8) + b
-2 = 40 + b
b = -42
Answer:
225
Step-by-step explanation:
Mary = 3x (3 times Carey)
Carey = x
Barry = x/2 (Because Carey read twice as many as Barry, it means he read half the amount Carey did)
3x + x + x/2 = 405
4x + x/2 = 405
8x/2 + x/2 (treat these as fractions) = 405
9x/2 = 405
9x = 810 (cross multiply)
x = 90
Mary = 3(90) 270
Carey = 90
Barry = 90/2 45
Mary - Barry
270 - 45 = 225
Hope this helps! :)
Well, there are 13 places that each horse can place. That means the first place has 13 options, second place has 12 options, third place has 11 options, etc. Though, we only care up to fourth place. When doing probability, we're multiplying in this case. So, here's the process:
How many ways all the horses can place = 13! = 6227020800
How many ways the first four places can place = 13*12*11*10 = 17160
Divide the second by the first and multiply by 100 for the probability as a percent:
(17160/6227020800)*100% ≈ <span>0.00027557319%
