1.875 quarts of pure pineapple juice should Theo add to a 20% pineapple drink.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Suppose,  x quarts of pure pineapple juice should be added with 20% pineapple drink.

As the amount of the mixture is 5 quarts, so the amount of 20% pineapple drink will be: (5-x) quarts

Percentage of juice in the pure pineapple juice is 100% and in the mixture is 50%

So, the equation will be.....

1.00(x)+0.20(5-x)=0.50(5)\\ \\ 1.00x+1-0.20x=2.50\\ \\ 0.80x=2.50-1\\ \\ 0.80x= 1.50\\ \\ x=\frac{1.50}{0.80}=1.875

So, 1.875 quarts of pure pineapple juice should Theo add to a 20% pineapple drink.

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

<em>The probability is 0.89 or 89%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Probability</u>

There are n=27 students in a certain Algebra 2 class. 18 out of them play basketball and 16 of them play baseball.

We also know 3 students play neither sport. This leaves 27-3=24 students playing sports.

The probability that a randomly chosen student plays basketball or baseball is:

\displastyle p=\frac{24}{27}

Simplifying:

\displastyle p=\frac{8}{9}=0.89

The probability is 0.89 or 89%

Eduardo spent $34 on a magazine and some candy bars if the magazine cost $6 and each candy bar cost $4 then how many candy bars
tatiyna

Answer: 7 candy bars

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to subtract the cost of the magazine from the total cost

$34-$6=$28

Now the $28 that remains is the cost of all the candy bars, so if we divide by the price, we will get  the amount.

$28/$4=7 candy bars
