Step-by-step explanation:

Question to answer:

What is the probability of picking an orange marble and flipping tails?

Solve:

let see how many orange marbles are there:

As we can see there is 1 orange marble out of 7 total. The probability of picking an orange marble is 1/7.

Now let see how many side a coin have:

As we can see the probability of flipping tails is 1/2 because 1 side is tails out of 2 sides total.Now multiply straight across:

1/2 × 1/7

→ 1 × 1 = 1

→ 2 × 7 = 14

Thus, the result is 1/14

Hence, the answer is [D] 1/14

For which values of k would the product of k/3 X 12 be greater than 12

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\text{k = 4, 5, 6, 7, 8... and onwards}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of k/3 and 12 be greater than 12.

⇒ k/3 × 12 > 12

The first step in determining the possible values of "k" is to simplify the left-hand-side (L.H.S) of the inequality.

⇒ (12 × k)/3 > 12

⇒ (12 ÷ 3) × k > 12

⇒ (4) × k > 12

The next step in determining the possible values of "k" is to isolate the variable. To do this, we can divide 4 both sides.

⇒ [4 × k]/4 > 12/4

⇒ k > 12/4

⇒ k > 3

To satisfy the inequality, the value of k must be greater than 3. Thus, the values of k could be [tex]\text{4, 5, 6... }[/tex] and so on.

In the diagram, m ZAFB = 78°

Which angle is supplementary to ZAFB and what is its measure?

Answers

Answer:

Angle AFE = 102(degree symbol)

Step-by-step explanation:

supplementary means two angles that add up to 180

hope this helps! :)

Answer:

The angle supplementary to ∠AFB is ∠EFA.

The reason why this is, is because a supplementary angle consists of two angles that have a sum of 180°.

Supplementary angles combine to form a straight line.

In this case, ∠EFA is the supplement of ∠AFB because, ∠EFA is the other part of the angle, AFB, that creates a full straight line(180°).

And to find the value of m∠EFA you would need to arrange an equation.

Since we know that the given angle measure of AFB is 78°, ∠EFA would have to equal a different measure so that both measures will have a sum of 180°.

We will consider the value of m∠EFA to be 'x' in our equation, so;

x + 78 = 180°

Solve for x:-

-78        -78

x = 102°, therefore m∠EFA = 102°.

The length of a rectangle is 1 ft more than twice the width, and the area of the rectangle is 45 ft^2. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Step by step explanation:

[tex]\text{Width} =x\\\\\text{Length}=2x+1\\\\~~~~~~~\text{Area} = 45~\text{ft}^2\\\\\implies x(2x+1) =45\\ \\\implies 2x^2+x = 45\\\\\implies 2x^2 +x-45=0\\\\\implies 2x^2+10x -9x -45 =0\\\\\implies 2x(x+5) -9(x+5)=0\\\\\implies (2x-9)(x+5) =0\\\\\implies x=\dfrac 92, ~~ x\neq -5\\\\\text{Hence,}\\\\\text{Width} = \dfrac 92 ~ \text{ft}\\\\\text{Length} = 2\cdot \dfrac 92 +1 = 10~ \text{ft}[/tex]

Answer:

Length 10 ft.

Width 4.5 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the width is x ft then the length is 2x + 1 ft.

Area = width * length, so:

45 = x(2x + 1)

45 = 2x^2 + x

2x^2 + x - 45 = 0

2x^2 + 10x - 9x - 45 = 0

2x(x + 5) - 9(x + 5) = 0

(2x - 9)(x + 5) = 0

x = 4.5, -5.

So x = 4.5   ( as the width cannot be negative).

Therefore the dimenions of the rectangle are

width = 4.5 ft, length = 2(4.5) + 1 = 10 ft.

I’m assuming that by n = 9 you mean the number in the expression is 9.

If we do this in steps it becomes quite simple, first let’s find the difference between the number and five,

9 - 5 = 4

Next you have to times that difference by 6,

4 * 6 = 24

Now we find what two less than that number is,

is a formula for the volume of a general prism whose cross sections parallel to the base all have area B. The distance between the parallel bases is represented by H.

To use this formula to find the volume of a tent, the area of the end of the tent would be substituted for B, and the length of the tent (distance between the ends) would be substituted for H.

An appropriate formula would need to be used for the end area.

It can grow as high as 75 feet tall. The fall season brings shorter days and cooler temperatures. Fall also brings changes to the leaves of the northern red oak. Leaves turn from green to shades of yellow, orange, and red, which is an amazing sight. It makes the northern red oak an eye-catching stand out among other trees in the oak family.In summer, the gray rough branches of the northern red oak grow long and wide. This is the season when branches can become overly long and heavy. The weight of the branches' leaves adds even more pounds. If the growth of the tree is not managed, the entire appearance of the tree can be changed. Early trimming helps groom the tree and keeps it from looking like a rounded triangle by summer's end.Both the size and the shape of the northern red oak's leaves are especially interesting. It is easy to find leaves that are larger than a man's hand. They often have 8 or more pointed fingers. That makes northern red oak leaves look like large, flattened evergreen trees.Residents in the Midwest especially enjoy the beauty of their northern red oaks in October. A common sight is to see people walking or relaxing under them. They gaze up, watching the colored leaves dance in the cool fall breeze, knowing that winter will soon come to take the leaves away.Second Passage: The Hardy Live OakThe live oak tree is one of the toughest trees found in the United States. It is not a tall tree. It grows only 30 to 40 feet high. But its branches are broad and strong. The branches make up for the tree's rather short height. How? The branches stretch out from the trunk like thick arms on a giant. The leaves on the branches are simple. They are oval in shape. They glisten in the sun. Most importantly, live oak leaves are always there. Live oaks stay green all year round.The live oak is also a fast growing tree. It is often planted in the lawns of new houses. This lets people living in the house have shade in just a few years. However, the owner of the tree needs to keep the lower branches trimmed. If the lower branches are not trimmed, over time the lower tree limbs will grow downward toward the ground. These branches will seem to almost slither like a snake. In time, they will be only inches above the ground. They will also spread out over the lawn for up to 25 feet from the trunk of the tree.The live oak tree is popular for a very important reason. It can live in very hot weather. Strong sunlight does not kill it. People in the southern United States see so many live oaks that they no longer really notice them. Live oak trees just blend into the landscape. Yet, live oaks contribute to the landscape in many ways. They provide shade in the summer heat. They also provide food for many animals. Each live oak tree can produce thousands of acorns. Squirrels are just one type of animal that scurries to feast on the little brown nuts. Live oaks are certainly a treasure in hot places with harsh sunny weather. According to the legend, Pecos Bill invented the lasso. A. TrueB. False hshshshshshhshshshs thank you!!
