You would set up a proportion. 3/8 = 6/x... cross multiply ( 3*x = 3x and 6*8 = 48) 3x = 48... divide both sides by 3 (3x/3 = x and 48/3 = 16)
So, she originally had 16 feet of ribbon.
2x+3x+2=-4(cause y=3x+2)
5x=-6
x=-6/5
f(-6/5)=-8/5
negative 6 over 5
Answer:
0.0467
Step-by-step explanation:
Probabilty of being defective is 
So probability of being good is 
Now,
Probability that all 3 of them are good is:
Now, to find probability of rejection, we subtract the now found probability from 1. Thus, we have:
1 - 0.9533 = 0.0467
Answer:
0.41 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale on the map is 1 in 86 mi.
This means that, 1 cm on the map represents 86 miles in real life, or on earth.
Then we're told that in real life, a distance is 35 miles, and how far they are on the map.
If 1 cm equals 86 miles, then we can say that x cm equals 35 miles
1 cm ----> 86
x cm ----> 35
x * 86 = 35 * 1
x = 35 / 86
x = 0.41 cm
Therefore, they must be 0.41 cm farther or closer apart on the map scale.
