<h2>Answer:</h2>

The weight of Anna is: 115 pounds

and the weight of Janet is: 135 pounds.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Janet weighs 20 pounds more than Anna.

This means if the weight of Anna is: x pounds

Then the age of Janet is: (x+20) pounds.

Also,

The sum of their weights is 250 pounds.

i.e.

x+x+20=250

i.e.

2x+20=250

On subtracting both side by 20 we have:

2x=250-20

i.e.

2x=230

On dividing both side by 2 we have:

x=115

Hence, the weight of Anna is:115 pounds.

and the weight of Janet is: 115+20=135 pounds.

Janet = J
Anna = A

J = A + 20
J + A = 250

Considering that Janet and Anna are relatively close to eachother in weight, let's divide the sum by 2 to give us a general idea of where their weight lies.

250 / 2 = 125

Janet's and Anna's weights are around 125.
Let's try 140 for Janet and 120 for Anna

140 = 120 + 20 (J = A + 20), this works!
140 + 120 = 260 (J + A = 250), this unfortunately doesn't work.

Let's try 135 for Janet and 115 for Anna.

135 = 115 + 20 (J = A + 20), this works!
135 + 115 (J + A = 250), this also works!

Janet weighs 135 pounds, and Anna weighs 115 pounds.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

1. 7/41

2. 7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Probability that it is a multiple of 6 given that it is a 2 digit number: There are 7 numbers that are a multiple of 6 and are 2 digits: 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, and 48. There are 41 numbers that are 2 digits. So, it is 7/41

2. Probability that it is at least 20 given that it is prime. Out of the prime numbers from 1-50, 7 of them are at least 20 and there are 15 primes in that range in total. So, it is 7/15

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the measure of the vertex angle ∠ABD of an isosceles triangle

we know that

An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles

In this problem

∠ABD=∠BAD= ----> the angles of the base are equals

Find the measure of the vertex angle

∠ABD= ------> the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is equal to

Step 2

Find the measure of the angle  ∠CBD in the equilateral triangle

we know that

A equilateral triangle has three  equal sides and three equal angles

The measure of the internal angle in a equilateral triangle is

so

∠CBD=

Step 3

Find the measure of the angle ∠ABC

∠ABC=∠ABD+∠DBC

substitute the values

∠ABC=

therefore

the answer is

the measure of the angle ∠ABC is

The rectangular prism shown has a volume of 10 cubic centimeters, = 1 cm3 Choose all the rectangular prisms that also have a vol
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

B and C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a rectangular prism that consists of 10 cubes. Each cube = 1 cm³. The volume of rectangular prism given = 10cm³.

Let's find out which of the options has same volume (10cm³) as that of the given rectangular prism.

Option A has 15 cubes = 15 cm³ in volume

Option B has 10 cubes = 10 cm³ in volume

Option C has 10 cubes also = 10 cm³ in volume

Option D has 12 cubes = 12 cm³

The rectangular prisms that have the same volume (10 cm³) with the given rectangular prism are option B and C.
