Start by letting x represent the number of Sam's pencils. Then Sari has 3x (since she has three times as many)

Together they total 28 pencils:
x + 3x = 28
4x = 28  /:4 (divide both sides by 4)
x = 7
So Sam has 7 pencils.
Sari, having three times as many, has 7 * 3 = 21.[[TAG_8]]

 how do i slove  5/9v+w=z, for v
Leona [9271]


We want v alone, so subtract w from both sides to move it over

This leaves 5/9 v = z - w

Next, eliminate the fraction multiplying v by multiplying both sides by its reciprocal

The reciprocal of 5/9 is 9/5

(5/9) × (9/5) cancel each other, leaving v isolated on the left

The right-hand side becomes 9/5 (z - w)

Combine to get:

v = 9/5 (z - w)

There you go!:D

Trapezoid $RSTU$ is a cross section of a lampshade. The diagonals of $RSTU$ are congruent, and the measure of $\angle S$ is $112
babunello [8412]
112°. The explanation step-by-step: As trapezoid RSTU has congruent diagonals, it qualifies as an Isosceles Trapezoid. A defining property of Isosceles Trapezoids is that the base angles are equivalent. Therefore, if angle S measures 112°, angle U must also measure 112°.

The Multiplication Rule says that P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B). What must be true about events A and B for this rule to apply?
Svet_ta [9500]

Response:

Events A and B exhibit independence.

Detailed explanation:

We are provided with

The multiplication principle applicable to events A and B

P(A\cap B)=P(A)\times P(B)

A correct assertion regarding events A and B is necessary for this principle to hold.

It is understood that for two events A and B to be independent

Consequently, the probability

P(A\cap B)=P(A)\cdot P(B)

Thus, the correct assertion concerning events A and B for the application of this principle is stated as

Events A and B are independent.

Letters a, b, c, and d are angles measures. Which equation is enough information to prove that lines m and n are parallel lines
babunello [8412]

Response:

b + d = 180°, a = d, and a = c

Detailed explanation:

In the diagram, we observe that the only condition for the lines to be parallel is that the angles correspond with their counterparts, for instance, a must equal d. The equation a = c indicates that all angles must be equal for lines m and n to remain parallel. Finally, the equation b + d = 180° confirms that this holds true only if lines m and n are parallel.
