Let the score of cowboys is x
and giants make score 9 which is twice less than the cowboys score so
giants score will be = 2x -9
and packers scored 14 more than giants that is (2x - 9) + 14
now sum of their scores is equal to 81 it means:
x + (2x - 9) + (2x -9) + 14 = 81
x + 2x - 9 + 2x - 9 + 14 = 81
5x = 81 + 4
5x = 85
x = 17
packers scored =  (2x - 9) + 14
= 2 (17) -9 + 14
=38 + 5 = 43 points

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

As it is mentoned in the question

Polygon ABCDE rotates around point F in clockwise direction to create polygon FGHIJ

And as we can see in the figure that

So we conclude that

A = F ⇒ 117°

B = G ⇒ 90°

C = H ⇒ 127°

D = I ⇒ 90°

E = J ⇒ 117°

Therefore this is the answer and the same is to be considered

Mission Control sends a signal to a Mars robot to travel to a mysterious rock 52.8 meters away. A return signal 59.0 minutes lat
Andrei [34K]
The response time includes the round-trip signal time plus the robot's travel time.
  59 min = 2*(9.5 min) +travel time
  59 min -2*(9.5 min) = travel time = 40 min

The speed is distance / travel time
  speed = (52.8 m)/(40 min) = 1.32 m/min

The robot's average speed was 1.32 meters per minute.

Elliott has some yarn that she wants to use to make hats and scarves. Each hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn and
erastova [34]

Answer:

The equation are:

1) h + s = 20

2) 4h = 1s

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of hats Elliott made = h

Number of scarfs Elliott made = s

total number of items Elliott made = 20

h + s = 20 ..[1]

1 hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn

1 hat = 0.2 kg of yarn

Then h hats will use = 0.2h kg of yarn

1 scarf uses 0.1 kilograms of yarn

1 scarf= 0.1 kg of yarn

Then s scarfs will use = 0.1s kg of yarn

She wants to twice as much as yarn for scarves for hats:

2 × (0.2h kg of yarn) = 0.1s kg of yarn

0.4h = 0.1s

4h = 1s...[2]

The equation are:

1) h + s = 20

2) 4h = 1s

A case in riverhead, new york, nine different crime victims listened to voice recordings of five different men. all nine victims
Alexus [3.1K]

the complete question in the attached figure

1) Find the probability that all nine victims would select the same person. You should enter your answer as a decimal, not as a percent. Do not round, as your answer should be a terminating decimal.

P=(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)=0.000000512

2) what is the probability that the first victim picks SOMEONE? ANYONE? 

P=(1/5)=0.20  ---------------- > 20%

3) Now let’s look at victim #2. What is the probability that they pick the same person as victim #1?

P=(1/5)*(1/5)=0.04 --------------> 4%

4) Now let’s look at victim #3. What is the probability that they pick the same person as victim #1?

P=(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)=0.008 --------------> 0.8%

5) Now let's look at victim #9. What is the probability that they pick the same person as victim #1? 

P=(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)=0.000000512

6) Once you find all those probabilities, what rule would apply?

the probability is given by (1/5)^n

n=number of victims that pick the same person---------> in this problem = 9

P=(1/5)^9= 0.000000512

1) The outcomes for rolling two dice, the sample space, is as follows:
(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6)
(2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6)
(3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6)
(4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6)
(5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6)
(6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6)
There are 36 outcomes in the sample space.
2)  The ways to roll an odd sum when rolling two dice are:
(1, 2), (1, 4), (1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 3), (2, 5), (3, 2), (3, 4), (3, 6), (4, 1), (4, 3), (4, 5), (5, 2), (5, 4), (5, 6), (6, 1), (6, 3), (6, 5).  There are 18 outcomes in this event.
3)  The probability of rolling an odd sum is 18/36 = 1/2 = 0.5
