Helen paid $246 for three jeans from her favourite clothing store. How much did she pay for each jeans she bought?
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

estimate: $80

exact amount paid: $82

Step-by-step explanation:

If you round $246 to 240, then divide it by 3, you should get $80. The cost per pair should be around $80 each

For the exact answer you take the amount spent (246) and divide it by the amount of jeans she bought (3).

246/3 = 82

Help! Stuck on this one!
gtnhenbr [62]

so we know that each m&m weighs about 2g.

the next line says to write a direct variation equation.

(definition: mathematical relationship between two variables that can be expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a constant times the other)

we then make the equation ( w=xm), then we use that equation to figure out the next line, which is to find the amount of m&ms that would fit in a bag of 1000.

(my head cant really process part a cause of a recent headache, so sorry if its wrong)

the answer to part b would be 500, which you can provide evidence based off of your part a equation.

The Blair family was one of the first to come to the original 13 colonies (now part of the USA). They had 4 children. Assuming t
Mumz [18]

Answer:

31.25% probability that the Blair family had at least 3 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

For each children, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it was a girl, or it was not. The probability of a child being a girl is independent of any other children. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

They had 4 children.

This means that n = 4

The probability of a child being a girl is 0.5

This means that p = 0.5

Probability of at least 3 children:

P(X \geq 3) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{4,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.25

P(X = 4) = C_{4,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.0625

P(X \geq 3) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.25 + 0.0625 = 0.3125

31.25% probability that the Blair family had at least 3 girls

lubasha [3.4K]

Her studies indicate that there is an inverse relationship between TV time and GPA, and that a student who watched 15 hours of TV per week can be expected to have a GPA of 3.5

In equation form

15 = k(1/3.5)

Solve for k

K = 15 * 3.5

Please help 100 points.​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

76 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

surface area = 2(wl + hl + hw)      w=width     h=height       l=length

surface area = 2(5*4 + 2*4 + 2*5)

surface area = 2(20 + 8 + 10)

surface area = 2(38)

surface area = 76 square feet
