At a zoo, 3 pandas eat a total of 181 1 2pounds of bamboo shoots each day. The male panda eats 3 times as much as the baby. The

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

6037.2 pounds of bamboo shoots does the female panda eat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pandas = 3

Total bamboo shoots eaten = 18112 pounds

Let baby panda eats bamboo = x

Male panda eats bamboo= 3x

Female panda eats bamboo = 2x

So, the equation will become

$x+3x+2x=18112$

Now solving the equation to find value of x

$x+3x+2x=18112\\6x=18112\\x=\frac{18112}{6}\\x=3018.6$

The value of x we get : x=3018.6

So, baby panda eats bamboo shoots = 3018.6 pounds

Male panda eats bamboo shoots = 3x = 3(3018.6) = 9055.8 pounds

Female panda eats bamboo shoots = 2x = 2(3018.6)= 6037.2 pounds

So, 6037.2 pounds of bamboo shoots does the female panda eat.

A point is randomly chosen on a map of North America. Describe the probability of the point being in each location: North Americ

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

We know that the map is of North America:

The probabilities are:

1) North America:

As the map is a map of North America, you can point at any part of the map and you will be pointing at North America, so the probability is p = 1

or 100% in percentage form.

2) New York City.

Here we can think this as:

The map of North America is an extension of area, and New Yorck City has a given area.

As larger is the area of the city, more probable to being randomly choosen, so to find the exact probability we need to find the quotient between the area of New York City and the total area of North America:

New York City = 730km^2

North America = 24,709,000 km^2

So the probability of randomly pointing at New York City is:

P = ( 730km^2)/(24,709,000 km^2) = 3x10^-5 or 0.003%

3) Europe:

As this is a map of Noth America, you can not randomly point at Europe in it (Europe is other continent).

So the probaility is 0 or 0%.
