3/5 = 0.3 * x
3/5 is 30% of x - This is how they match up from the word problem to a number sentence
So to solve it...
3/5 = 0.3x
x = 3/5 ÷ 0.3 = 2
Answer: 4,000 cubic feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume=LWH (Length times width times height, nay base times height)
V=40*20*5
V=40*20*5= 4000
Answer: 4,000 cubic ft.
Let
x-------> the width of the rectangular area
y------> the length of the rectangular area
we know that
y=x+15------> equation 1
perimeter of a rectangle=2*[x+y]
2x+2y <= 150-------> equation 2
substitute 1 in 2
2x+2*[x+15] <=150--------> 2x+2x+30 <=150----> 4x <=150-30
4x <= 120---------> x <= 30
the width of the rectangular area is at most 30 ft
y=x+15
for x=30
y=30+15------> y=45
the length of the rectangular area is at most 45 ft
see the attached figure

Answer:
Probability that both such alarms fail is 0.03027
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability the alarm fails = 0.174 (this is calculated by dividing the percentage by 100 like: 17.4/100)
Probability that both such alarms fail = 0.174 * 0.174 = 0.03027
