There are 20 counters in a box . a counter is chosen and replaced 100 times , the results are 32 blue and 62 red . how many of each colour do you think there are in the box , can someone me out on this ? i'm very confused

I was confused too. I'd say 60 red and 40 blue because I multiplied 62*2 and 32*2

I got 124 and 64.

Then, I subtracted 124 and 64 to get 60 for red and added 40 to get 100

so... red is 60 and blue is 40.

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
