Answer:

t = (1/2)m - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

"Ted's debt is 14 less than half of Mike's debt" translates into

How do i write 12.009 in a word form?

tia_tia [17]

Your answer will be twelve and nine thousandths because in place value decimals are like tenths, hundredths, thousandths. In place value for regular numbers are ones, tens, hundreds and so on. So, when you have 12.009, you are going to separate the decimals with the numbers. Then, write down the number in words which would be twelve. Now, go to the decimal and write that down, which is 9 thousandths. Finally, combine the both of them to get: twelve and nine thousandths.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

109.9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of an arc that is 1/4 of a circle of radius 70 ft is ...

s = rθ

s = (70 ft)(π/2) = 35π ft ≈ 109.9557 ft

The best answer choice appears to be 109.9 feet.

A four-person committee is chosen from a group of eight boys and six girls. If students are chosen at random, what is the probab

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer: 0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

in the group, we can have only 4 persons.

we have 8 boys, and 6 girls.

We want to find the probability that in the comite we have only boys.

Ok, for the first selection, the probability of selecting a boy is equal to the number of boys divided the total number of the group ( 8 + 6 = 14) this is

p1 = 8/14.

For the second selection we do the same, but we already slected a boy, so now the number of boys is 7, and the total number of posibilities is 13.

p2 = 7/13.

for the third selection we do the same, in this case the probability is

p3 = 6/12

for the fourth selection the probability will be:

p4 = 5/11

The joint probability, of all the events happening at the same time, is equal to the product of the singular probabilities:

P = p1*p2*p3*p4 = (8/14)*(7/13)*(6/12)*(5/11) = 0.07

A rectangle has an area of 256 cm 2 . it has a width that is 48 cm shorter than 4 times its length. what is the rectangle's leng

AveGali [126]

Let
x--------> the rectangle's length
y-------> the rectangle's width

we now that
Area of rectangle=x*y
Area=256 cm²
256=x*y-------> equation 1

y=4x-48------> y=4x-48------> equation 2

substitute equation 2 in equation 1

256=x*[4x-48]-----> 256=4x²-48x
4x²-48x-256=0

using a graph tool----> to resolve the second order equation
see the attached figure
the solution is
x=16 cm
y=4x-48----> y=4*16-48-----> y=16 cm

is a square

the answer is
the rectangle's length is 16 cm
