Answer:

1000 balls

(there are infinitely many solutions to this question; you can scale up 1000, use a different total, etc.)

Step-by-step explanation:

there are, of course, multiple possible numbers,

but the easiest way is to go with 1000, because we can say 375 / 1000 and 400 / 1000

(0.4 + 0.275 + 0.225 = 1)

400 out of 1000 balls are red (400/1000 = 4/10 = 0.4)

375 out of 1000 balls are green (375/1000 = 3.75/10 = 0.375)

225 out of 1000 balls are yellow (225/1000 = 2.25/10 = 0.225)

the question never gave detail as to if the answer should be the <em>lowest</em><em> </em>number of possible balls, so this value is possible.

So, a possible number of balls in this bag is 1000.

Jerri was using a recipe for a large cake that required one-fourth of a tablespoon of cinnamon. Instead of making one large cake
Mrrafil [7]

Im pretty sure you would put 1/12 tablespoon of cinnamon in the cakes individually. You would divide 1/4 by 3. It's pretty simple. If that's not the answer I apologize dearly!

23, 24 And 25 please. Thank you!
Vesna [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

23. area of rect,r = 11 x 3.5 = 38.5cmsq

area of tri, t = 6 x3.5/2 = 10.5 cmsq

area of shaded region, sr = r-t

=> sr = 38.5- 10.5 = 28.5cmsq

24. area of square, s = 10x10 = 100mmsq

area of circle, c = pi x 5^2 = 78.5mmsq

area of shaded region, sr = s - c

=> sr = 100- 78.5 = 22.5mmsq

25. area of circle, c = pi x 6^2 = 113.04insq

area of tri, t = 6x12/2 = 36insq

area of shaded region, sr = c - t

=> sr = 113.04 - 36 = 77.04insq

What is the common ratio for geometric sequence: 5,15,45,135 ?​
serg [7]

Answer:

the common ratio is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve for the common ratio, I like to take the second term and divide it by the first term

15/5 = 3

then I will check the rest of the terms

15*3 = 45

45*3 = 135

It looks like the common ratio is correct!
