Answer:
Using the charasteristics of a parallelogram, the length of line segment MX is 8 in (Third option).
Step-by-step explanation:
In parallelogram WXYZ:
WY=12 in., this is a diagonal in the parallelogram
XZ=16 in., this is the other diagonal in the parallelogram
WX=10 in., this is one of the sides of the parallelogram
XY=9 in., this is the other side of the parallelogram
MX=? this segment is between the vertex X and the point of intersection of the diagonals
In a parallelogram the diagonals intersect (point M) dividing them in equal parts each other, then:
MX=MZ=XZ/2
MX=MZ=(16 in.)/2
MX=MZ=8 in.
To add these amounts together, we must first find their least common multiple in order to get common denominators (b/c when you add fractions, the denominators must be the same).
We'll start by listing some of their multiples.
To do this, count by whatever the denominator is:
4 1/2 (denominator is 2): 2 4 6 8 10 12 14
2 1/4 (denominator is 4): 4 8 12 16
6 1/3 (denominator is 3): 3 6 9 12 15
Look and see which is the first multiple that all three denominators have. Circle them if it helps you. In this case, it's 12.
So now we have to multiply the denominators by whatever number it takes to reach 12, and multiply by the same number to the numerator:
4 1/2 (times 6 to both top and bottom) =
4 6/12
2 1/4 (times 3) = 2 3/12
6 1/3 (times 4) = 6 4/12
Add all these fractions together, and you get 12 13/12, which is equal to 13 1/12.
Thus, Peter makes a total of 13 1/2 cups.
Hope this made sense! tell me if anything is confusing/incorrect :))
Answer:
The probability that a particular driver had exactly two speeding violations is 0.009.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a sample of 2,000 licensed drivers revealed the following number of speeding violations;
<u>Number of Violations</u> <u>Number of Drivers</u>
0 1,910
1 46
2 18
3 12
4 9
5 or more <u> 5 </u>
<u>Total</u> <u> 2000 </u>
<u />
Now, the data means that 1,910 drivers had 0 speeding violations and so on.
Now, we have to find the probability that a particular driver had exactly two speeding violations, that means;
Number of drivers having exactly two speeding violations = 18
Total numbers of drivers = 2000
So, the required probability = 
= 
= <u>0.009</u>
Set the question up as an equation, where x is equal to the cost of a game
FRIDAY: 5+3x
SATURDAY: 3+5x
∴ 5+3x=3+5x
2=2x
x=1
Therefore the cost of 1 game is $1
