Jeremy is randomly selecting an outfit to celebrate Probability Day at his school. He can choose from a green (G) or purple (P) shirt, denim (D) or khaki (K) pants, argyle (A) or crew (C) socks, and boots (B), flip-flops (F) or sneakers (S). What is the probability that Jeremy will select an outfit that includes flip-flops (F) and argyle (A) socks? Enter your answer as a simplified fraction.

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10

2

x=5

step-by-step explanation:

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
