Answer:
Emmanuel purchased 11 pounds of soil last week.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we want to find the number of pounds of soil Emmanuel purchased last week, we will have to work backwards.
We know that the amount is 5 lb more than twice the amount of potting soil he bought last week. This info gives us an equation.
2x + 5 = 27, as its twice the amount last week and 5 lbs more. Now we solve.
2x + 5 = 27 | Subtract 5 from both sides
2x = 22 | Divide both sides by 2
x = 11
Area of the rectangular mat = 12 x 4 = 48 in²
Area of the 3 circles = 3( πr²) = 3(3.14 x 2²) = 37.68 in²
P(landing in a circle) = 37.68/48 = 157/200 = 0.79 (nearest hundredth)
Answer: The probability of landing in one of the circles is 0.79.
Just multiply my friend. The answer is 196
(women who prefer mountains)/(total women) = 0.302/(0.302 + 0.236)
= 0.302/0.538 ≈ 0.561 = 56.1%
