Given:

• Total number of cans collected = 150

,

• Percent of cans that were soda = 58%

Let's find the number of other cans he collected.

To find the number of other cans, since the percent of soda is 58%, let's find the pecent of other cans.

Percent of other cans = 100% - 58% = 42%

The percent of other cans collected was 42%.

Now, to find the number of other cans collected, let's find 42% of the total number of cans collected 150.

We have:

42\text{ \% }\ast150\Longrightarrow0.42\times150=63

Therefore, the number of other cans collected is 63 cans.

ANSWER:

63 cans

Belle bought 18 seeds in order to plant an herb garden for her grandma. Of the seeds she bought, 10 were parsley seeds.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

  0.3431

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, it can work well to consider the seeds from the group of 18 that are NOT selected to be part of the group of 15 that are planted.

There are 18C3 = 816 ways to choose 3 seeds from 18 NOT to plant.

We are interested in the number of ways exactly one of the 10 parsley seeds can be chosen NOT to plant. For each of the 10C1 = 10 ways we can ignore exactly 1 parsley seed, there are also 8C2 = 28 ways to ignore two non-parsley seeds from the 8 that are non-parsley seeds.

That is, there are 10×28 = 280 ways to choose to ignore 1 parsley seed and 2 non-parsley seeds.

So, the probability of interest is 280/816 ≈ 0.3431.

The notation nCk is used to represent the expression n!/(k!(n-k)!), the number of ways k objects can be chosen from a group of n. It can be pronounced "n choose k".

In the diagram, AITP - ANGO. Find the values of<br> x and y.<br><br> y =<br> X=
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

x = 25, y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are congruent then corresponding angles and sides are congruent, thus

∠ O = ∠ P , substitute values

6y - 14 = 40 ( add 14 to both sides )

6y = 54 ( divide both sides by 6 )

y = 9

and

NG = IT , that is

x - 2y = 7 ( substitute y = 9 into the equation )

x - 2(9) = 7

x - 18 = 7 ( add 18 to both sides )

x = 25
