X - pounds of the M&M`s;
y - pounds of the peanuts
x + y = 30
3 x + 2 y = 74
----------------------
y = 30 - x
3 x + 2 ( 30 - x ) = 74
3 x + 60 - 2 x = 74
x = 74 - 60
x = 14
Answer:
They bought 14 pounds of M&M`s.

The spinner for a board game has eight colors the arrow can land on. What are the degrees of freedom for a goodness-of-fit test
Juliette [100K]

Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of colors that the arrow can land on = 8

We need to find the degrees of freedom for a goodness of fit test of the fairness of this spinner.

As we know that degree of freedom is 1 less than the size of sample.

So, Mathematically, it is expressed as below:

So, Degree of freedom would be

v=n-1\\\\v=8-1\\\\v=7

Hence, Option 'c' is correct.

What is the reciprocal of each mixed number? Drag and drop the answer into the box to match each number.
Gnoma [55]
Hi there!! 

First, we are going to find the improper fraction of each mixed number. 

10 1/3 >>>>> 10*3+1=31 31/3

2 2/3 >>>>> 2*3+2=8.      8/3 

5 1/3 >>>>>> 5*3+1 = 16.  16/3 

TO find the reciprocal, we switch the numerator with the denominator. 

31/3 changes to 3/31, 8/3 changes to 3/8, and finally 16/3 changes to 3/16. 


Your answer is: 

3/31
3/8
3/16

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions:)
