The equation would be:
3/4x=16 1/2
So you would divide both sides by 3/4
and get 44 bags for the leftover 16 1/2 lb. of cookies.
Hope this helps a lot!
At first there are three marbles for Sam to pick from. the possibility of drawing a colored marble is 2/3. if Sam picks one of the colored marbles, the possibility of therefore (if he'd drawn the colored marble) drawing the second colored marble is 1/2. for the possibility of those happening consequently, we have to multiply the possibilities. 2/3 * 1/2 is 2/6 is 1/3. which means Sam wins in 33.333...% cases. Julie has a better chance of winning.
adding a white marble would change the possibilities to 1/2 and 1/3 consequently, meaning Sam wins in 1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6 = 16.7% cases, which is even less fair.
adding a colored marble would change the possibilities to 3/4 and 2/3 consequently, meaning Sam wins in 3/4 * 2/3 = 6/12 = 50% cases, which finally makes the game fair.
Answer:
8. x = 16
9. x = 10
14.
m ∠RSU = 130°
m ∠UST = 50°
15.
m ∠RSU = 124°
m ∠UST = 56°
Step-by-step explanation:
8.
Given ∠DEF is bisected by EG. That is , ∠DEG = ∠GEF
That is , (x + 15)° = 31°
x = 31 - 15 = 16
9.
Given ∠DEF is bisected by EG. That is , ∠DEG = ∠GEF
That is ,
(6x - 4)° = 56°
6x = 56 + 4
6x = 60
x = 10
14.
13x + 5x = 180° [straight line angles ]
18x = 180
x = 10
m ∠RSU = 130°
m ∠UST = 50°
15.
4x + 12 + 2x = 180° [ straight line angles]
6x = 180 - 12
6x = 168
x = 28
m ∠RSU = 4(28) + 12 = 112 + 12 = 124°
m ∠UST = 2(28) = 56°
Answer is 91.56 You add all the numbers up and divide by 9(There are 9 numbers in the sequence).
Answer:
Let's suppose that each person works at an hourly rate R.
Then if 4 people working 8 hours per day, a total of 15 days to complete the task, we can write this as:
4*R*(15*8 hours) = 1 task.
Whit this we can find the value of R.
R = 1 task/(4*15*8 h) = (1/480) task/hour.
a) Now suppose that we have 5 workers, and each one of them works 6 hours per day for a total of D days to complete the task, then we have the equation:
5*( (1/480) task/hour)*(D*6 hours) = 1 task.
We only need to isolate D, that is the number of days that will take the 5 workers to complete the task:
D = (1 task)/(5*6h*1/480 task/hour) = (1 task)/(30/480 taks) = 480/30 = 16
D = 16
Then the 5 workers working 6 hours per day, need 16 days to complete the job.
b) The assumption is that all workers work at the same rate R. If this was not the case (and each one worked at a different rate) we couldn't find the rate at which each worker completes the task (because we had not enough information), and then we would be incapable of completing the question.
