Answer:
First option,
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the fraction. To make the process of solving easier, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator by x and y to get rid of the fractions as seen below. This is because the variables in the denominators of the fractions will cancel out with either the matching x or y in the numerators.
Thus, the first option is correct.
Express your length and width as algebraic expressions:
width = x
length = 4x
Use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle to solve for x:
perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width)
50 = 2(4x) + 2(x)
50 = 8x + 2x
50 = 10x
5 = x
The width (x) is 5 feet and the length (4x) is 20 feet.
Answer: 91.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
Of the 1% of women that have breast cancer, 90% of those are tested positive with 8% of those being false positive. 8% of 90% is 8.8% so 91.2% chance.
Answer:
x = 45
Step-by-step explanation:
x and 3x are adjacent angles and the form a straight line. Their sum will be 180 degrees
x +3x = 180
Combine like terms
4x = 180
Divide each side by 4
4x/4 = 180/4
x =45
