Answer: Phoebe have 48 apples.

Explanation:

It is given that Pru, Piper, and Phoebe share apples in the ratio 5:3:4. If Pru has 24 more apples than Piper.

Let the total number of apples be x.

The sum of the ratios is,

Sum=5+3+4=12

Therefore the number of apples shared by Pru, Piper, Phoebe are \frac{5}{12}x, \frac{3}{12}x,\frac{4}{12}x respectively.

It is given that Pru has 24 more apples than Piper, so

\frac{5}{12}x-\frac{3}{12}x=24

\frac{5-3}{12}x=24

\frac{2}{12}x=24

\frac{1}{6}x=24

x=144

Since phoebe have \frac{4}{12}x appels,

\frac{4}{12}x=\frac{4}{12}\times 144=48

Therefore, Phoebe have 48 apples.

Answer:

Phoebe has 48 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Pru's number of apples= 5x

Piper's number of apples= 3x

Phoebe's number of apples= 4x

We know that 5x=3x+24. Solve for x.

5x-3x= 24

2x=24

x=12

12*4= 48

Phoebe has 48 apples

Write the slope e-intercept from of the equation of the line through the given point with the given slope. Please show your work
Zinaida [17]
The slope-intercept form is written under the form of
y=mx+b where m represent the slope and y represent y-intercept. In this case, we know that the m is 8, but we don't have b yet. To find the answer, substitute (0,5) into an equation where y=5 and x=0
y=mx+b
y=8x+b
5=8(0)+b
5=b, so we have the complete y-intercept form which is y=8x+b
Or
You can you this
y-y1=m(x-x1) where point (x1,y1) represent point (0,5) in this case which led to:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-5=8(x-0)
y-5=8x-8(0)
y-5=8x
Add 5 to each side
y-5+5=8x+5
y=8x+5 represent the slope-intercept form. Hope it help!

A triangular pyramid with a height of 9 inches has a volume of 63 cubic inches. If the height of the triangular base is 6 inches
Bond [772]

Option D: 21 in is the base length of the triangular base.

Explanation:

Given that a triangular pyramid with a height of 9 inches has a volume of 63 cubic inches.

The height of the triangular base is 6 inches.

We need to determine the base length of the triangular pyramid.

The base length of the triangular pyramid can be determined using the formula,

Volume =\frac{1}{3} \times Bh

Substituting Volume=63 and Height=9 in the above formula, we get,

63 =\frac{1}{3} \times B(9)

Simplifying the terms, we get,

63 =3B

Dividing both sides by 3, we have,

21=B

Thus, the base length of the triangular pyramid is 21 in

Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
