6 bowls can hold 16 tomatoes.

Given:

Total tomatoes: 16

Each bowl holds: 3 tomatoes

Explanation:

To find the number of bowls needed divide total tomatoes by tomatoes each bowl can hold.

Solve:

16 ÷ 3 = 5.333...

So, we need more than 5 bowls, [6 bowls] to hold the tomatoes.

Answer:

6 bowls

Step-by-step explanation:

So . .

If 1 bowl can hold 3 tomatoes

Then . .

Simply divide 16 by 3
16/3 = 5.33
You will need 6 bowls

Reason. .

Because you must be able to hold all 16! Therefor you round!

Hope this helps!

Mr. Miller has a 20-foot ladder, which he

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

the ladder will make a right angle triangle with the house. The hypotenuse of the triangle is the ladder, 20 ft, and the height of the triagnle is 18 ft.

Solve for the base of the right angle triangle using pythagorean's theorem:

c=20, a=18, b=?

$b^{2}=c^{2} - a^{2}\\b^{2}=20^{2} - 18^{2}$

$b=\sqrt{72}$

$b= 8.49 ft$

round to the nearest foot,

b = 8 ft

A student decided to use the points (.5, 20) and (3, 150) to make what she believed was a better regression equation. Her answer

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

They can expect to make $524

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets solve the problem

The form of the linear function is f(x) = m x + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (value f(x) at x = 0)

∵ The student decided to use the points (0.5, 20) and (3, 150)

to make a better regression equation

- She calculated the slope of the line using the two points

∵ $m=\frac{150-20}{3-0.5}=52$

- She substituted the value of m in the form above

∴ f(x) = 52 x + b

- Than she find that the best value of f(x) at x = 0 is 4

∴ f(x) = 52 x + 4

∵ x represents the number of hours

∵ y represents the money

∵ The family decides to extend the yard sale to be 10 hours long

- That means substitute x by 10 in f(x)

∵ x = 10

∴ f(10) = 52(10) + 4

∴ f(10) = 520 + 4

∴ f(10) = 524

∴ They can expect to make $524

PLEASE HELP! The table shows the number of championships won by the baseball and softball leagues of three youth baseball divisi

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Question 1: $P ( B | Y ) = \frac{ P ( B and Y)}{ P (Y)} = \frac{ \frac{2}{16}}{ \frac{4}{16}} = \frac{1}{2}$

Question 2:

A. $P ( Y | B ) = \frac{ P(Y and B) }{ P(B) } = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{3}$

B. $P( Z | B ) = \frac{ P ( Z and B)}{ P (B)}= \frac{ \frac{1}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{6}$

C. $P((Y or Z)|B) = \frac{ P ((Y or Z) and B)}{P(B)}= \frac{ \frac{3}{16}}{ \frac{6}{16}}= \frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional probability is defined by

$P(A|B)= \frac{P(A and B)}{P(B)}$

with P(A and B) beeing the probability of both events occurring simultaneously.

Question 1:

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

$P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}$

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

$P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }$

then

P( B and Y)= \frac{ 2 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

$P ( B | Y ) = \frac{ P ( B and Y)}{ P (Y)} = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{4}{16} } = \frac{1}{2}$

Question 2.A:

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

$P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }$

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

$P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}$

then

P( B and Y)= \frac{ 2 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

$P ( Y | B ) = \frac{ P(Y and B) }{ P(B) } = \frac{ \frac{2}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{3}$

Question 2.B:

Z: Championships won by the 13 - 15 years old, beeing

$P ( Z)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }$

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

$P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}$

then

P( Z and B)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }[/tex]

By definition,

$P( Z | B ) = \frac{ P ( Z and B)}{ P (B)}= \frac{ \frac{1}{16} }{ \frac{6}{16} } = \frac{1}{6}$

Question 3.B

Y: Championships won by the 10 - 12 years old, beeing

$P ( Y)= \frac{ 4 }{ 16 }$

Z: Championships won by the 13 - 15 years old, beeing

$P ( Z)= \frac{ 1 }{ 16 }$

then

$P (Y or Z) = P(Y) + P(Z) = \frac{6}{16}$

B: Baseball League Championships won, beeing

$P ( B ) = \frac{ 6 }{16}$

$P((YorZ) and B)= \frac{3}{16}$

By definition,

$P((Y or Z)|B) = \frac{ P ((Y or Z) and B)}{P(B)}= \frac{ \frac{3}{16}}{ \frac{6}{16}}= \frac{1}{2}$
