Answer:

The answer to your question is: 150 fruits in total

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

10% of fruits in a basket are apples

there are 15 apples

# of fruits = ?

Process

Rule of three

                                10 % of fruits --------------------   15 apples

                              100%              ---------------------      x

                          x = 100(15) / 10

                          x = 1500 / 10

                         x = 150 fruits

DedPeter [7]
Answer: 68

Explanation:

Let x be the age of Mr Jasmi
y be the age of Miss Haslinda
a + b + c be the age of the 3 children

We can write:
(x + y + a + b + c)/5 = 38

But:
(a + b + c)/3 = 18
a + b + c = 18(3)
a + b + c = 54

Substitute this value to our first equation

(x + y + 54)/5 = 38
x + y + 54 = 38(5)
x + y + 54 = 190
x + y = 190 - 54
x + y = 136

Thus:
Mean age of (mr jasmi and miss Linda) = (x+y)/2

But x + y = 136

=> mean age = 136/2 = 68

Geometry question!!
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

GQ=25 units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Point Q is the midpoint of GH

so

GH=GQ+QH  and  GQ=QH

GH=2GQ -------> equation A

we have

GH=5x-5

GQ=2x+3

substitute in the equation A and solve for x

5x-5=2(2x+3)

5x-5=4x+6

5x-4x=6+5

x=11

Find the length of GQ

GQ=2x+3

substitute the value of x

GQ=2(11)+3

GQ=25 units

oksano4ka [1.4K]
36x2(for the total amount of yarn for the width) would be 72. 112-72=40. Since it is a rectangle and the width should both be the same size, the length should be 20 inches. (20+20+36+36=112, so 20 inches is the correct answer.
