a rectangle is 8 inches long and 4 inches wide a similar rectangle is 12 inches what is the width of the second triangle to the nearest inch?

Answers

The first rectangle: width/length=4/8, simplify it to get 1/2 The second rectangle: Width/length=?/12 Use proportion: 1/2= 6/12 So the wide of the second rectangle is 6

2.7 Because the first rectangles area is 32 and the second rectangle has a base of 12. So you need to multiply something with 12 to get a close answer to 32.And that close number is 2.7

An opaque bag contains 5 green marbles 3 blue marbles and 2 red marbles. what is the of randomly picking out a marble and the marble being red?

Answers

The probability of randomly picking out a red marble is 1/5

Calculating the probability of randomly picking out a marble and the marble being red?

To determine the probability of randomly picking out a marble and it being red, we need to consider the total number of marbles and the number of red marbles.

Total marbles = 5 green + 3 blue + 2 red = 10 marbles

Red marbles = 2

So, we have

Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Total possible outcomes)

This gives

Probability = (Number of red marbles) / (Total marbles)

By subsituition

Probability = 2/10 = 1/5

Hence, the probability of randomly picking out a marble and it being red is 1/5
