So if one bit of the length, is half the size of the other bit then we can make the following equation, for x being the length of rope:
x + 2x = 66
3x = 66
x = 22
That is the length, of the smaller one (half the big one), so 2x = 44. Hence d) is your answer.
Hope I helped!
Start with how much profit they are making off each race entry. People pay $55 to race, but $15 of that is expenses so they are only profiting $40 for each entry. Now write one side of the equality. They start with $10,000 in donations, and then have a $40 profit for each race entry. So 10,000+40x. X will represent the unknown number of race entries. What do we want that expression to be equal to? We want 10000+40x>55000. It can also be greater than or equal to, not just greater than.
Solve for x. Subtract 10000 from each side resulting in 40x>45000. Divide each side by 40 to solve for x. X>1125. X needs to bbe greater than or equal to 1125. If there are 1125 race entries, the charity will profit exactly $55000, so the lowest number of race entries is 1125
Answer:
27 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the average is to be 23 degrees over 5 days then the total of the temperatures will be 5*23 = 115 degrees.
The total over the first 4 days = 22*4 = 88 degrees, so the temperature on the fifth day has to be 115 - 88 = 27 degrees.
Answer:
1/9; 4/9; 1/12; 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
the probability that both numbers are greater than 6 if the same number can be chosen twice--> 3/9 * 3/9 = 1/9
the probability that both numbers are less than 7 if the same number can be chosen twice --> 6/9 * 6/9 = 4/9
the probability that both numbers are odd numbers less than 6 if the same numbers cannot be chosen twice --> 3/9 * 2/8 = 1/12
the probability that both numbers are even numbers if the same numbers cannot be chosen twice --> 4/9 * 3/8 = 1/6
