Answer:

Orange = 12

Grape = 15

Cola = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Turning this into equations you can give each soda a variable

Cola = C | Grape = G | Orange = R

Then you get:

8 + G = C

R + 3 = G

C + G + R = 50

We want to get a variable all by itself in an equation so first I'm going to put the second equation (R + 3 = G) in the first (8 + G = C) by replacing the G to get

8 + (R + 3) = C  Combine the variables 11 + R = C and put that new equation into the last equation

(11 + R) + G + R = 50    

Now plug our original second equation (R + 3 = G) into our third to get

(11 + R) + (R + 3) + R = 50    

Combine and get

14 + 3R = 50      Subtract over the 14

3R = 36              Divide by 3

Orange Sodas = 12

Our new 3rd Equation is now:   C + G + 12 = 50, subtract over 12 to get

C + G = 38

Plug either equation 1 or 2 into that one, I'll do 1

(8 + G) + G = 38

8 + 2G = 38

2G = 30

Grape Sodas = 15

Now our 3rd equation is C + 15 = 38, subtract over 15

Cola Sodas = 23

Orange = 12

Grape = 15

Cola = 23

12 + 15 + 23 = 50

Suppose you want to learn more about the heights of the buildings in New York City. How would you choose a sample of the buildin
natulia [17]

Answer:

I'd use a Non-probability Sampling Method.

Explanation:

The question is already laced with criteria - Heights of Buildings in New York.

This means that there are certain buildings that won't fit in the sample. In a non-probability sample, objects or subjects are elected based on specified criteria that are not random. This means that not all objects/subject have a c<em>hance</em> of being included in the sample.

It is assumed that the question/assignment centers around high rise buildings.

Therefore, one storey buildings and bungalows that are within and outside New York will not be included in the sample.

Under the Non-Probability Sampling Method, it is essential to note that there are other subgroupings of sampling techniques. They are:

  1. Convenience Sample
  2. Voluntary Sample
  3. Purposive Sample
  4. Snowball Sample

Cheers!

A) Write the following in standard form and find A, B and C
alex41 [277]

Answer:

  • a)  2x -y = -5; A=2, B=-1, C=-5
  • b)  y = 2x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Standard Form is ...

  Ax + By = C

where A > 0 and A, B, C are mutually prime.

To get that form, we can add 2x-5 to both sides of the equation:

  (2x -5) -2x = (2x -5) -y +5

  -5 = 2x -y

Then we can swap sides of the equal sign:

  2x -y = -5 . . . . . . standard form

Matching this to the generic standard form equation, we find ...

  A = 2

  B = -1

  C = -5

__

b) We can solve for y by adding 2x+y to both sides of the equation:

  (2x +y) -2x = (2x +y) -y +5

  y = 2x +5 . . . . . . slope-intercept form

A frame is 6in tall and 8 in wide. What if it was reduced to a width of 4in then how tall will it be
kkurt [141]

Answer:

  3 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, we are to assume that the height and width are proportional:

  height/width = (6 in)/(8 in) = (new height)/(4 in)

Multiplying by 4 in will tell us the new height:

  new height = (4 in)(6/8) = 3 in

The reduced frame will be 3 inches tall.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

first option

Step-by-step explanation:
