Using proportions, considering the amount she received from each person, it is found that Annie had 30 sweets originally.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, we have that:

  • Initially, she had n sweets.
  • With the ones she got from Teddy, the amount became 1.5n.
  • With the amount from Rosie, the amount became 1.4 x 1.5 x n.

The final amount was of 63, hence:

1.4 x 1.5 x n = 63

n = 63/(1.4 x 1.5)

n = 30.

Annie had 30 sweets originally.

What would the answer to this question be? show work please
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is the length times width times height.

V = LWH

V = (4√3)(3√6)W

V = 12√18 W

V = 36√2 W

If the volume is irrational, then W cannot have a radical that is half of a perfect square, because when multiplied by √2, that would yield a rational volume.  For example, √18 × √2 = √36 = 6.

Therefore, the answer must be B, because 12 is not half of a perfect square.

V = 36√2 (4√12)

V = 144√24

V = 288√6

Laboratory experiment shows that the life of the average butterfly is normally distributed with a mean of 18.8 days and a standa
inessss [21]

Answer:

a) 0.4164

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean lifespan (μ) = 18.8 days

Standard deviation (σ) = 2 days

For any given lifespan 'X', the z-score is:

z=\frac{X- \mu}{\sigma} \\z=\frac{X- 18.8}{2}

For X=12.04 days:

z=\frac{12.04 - 18.8}{2} \\z=-3.38

A z-score of -3.38 falls in the 0.036-th percentile of a normal distribution.

For X=18.38 days:

z=\frac{18.38 - 18.8}{2} \\z=-0.21

A z-score of -3.38 falls in the 41.68th percentile of a normal distribution.

The probability that a butterfly lives between 12.04 and 18.38 days is

P=41.68-0.036\\P=41.64\%\ or\ 0.4164

The width of a rectangle is x. Its length is 3x. How long is the diagonal of the rectangle? Express your answer in simplified ra
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The length of the diagonal is x√10

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the length of the diagonal

The diagonal will represent the hypotenuse of a triangle formed with the width and length of the triangle being the measure of the other sides

Mathematically, we then apply Pythagoras’ theorem to get this

we have this as that the square of the diagonal equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

d^2 = x^2 + (3x)^2

d^2 = x^2 + 9x^2

d^2 = 10x^2

d = √(10x^2)

d = x√10
