The answer b-11/20 fluid ounce

Answer: C. 27/31 fluid ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's turn the mixed number into a fraction:

1\frac{1}{30}=\frac{(1*30)+1}{30} =\frac{31}{30}

Then, to solve the problem we can use a simple rule of three:

31/30 ----------3/10

  3  ----------- x

This can be read as: If to make 31/30 fluid ounces of purple you need 3/10 fluid ounces of red, then to make 3 fluid ounces of purple how many fluid ounces of red will you need?

x=\frac{3*\frac{3}{10} }{\frac{31}{30} } =\frac{\frac{9}{10} }{\frac{31}{30} }=\frac{9*30}{10*31}=\frac{270}{310}=\frac{27}{31}

So, to make 3 fluid ounces of purple paint, Isabelle will need 27/31 fluid ounces of red paint.

Find the value of c, rounded to the nearest tenth <br> A. 11<br> B. 14.3<br> C. 37.6<br> D. 7.4
Helga [31]

Answer:

D. The correct value of  c  = 7.4

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Tangent-Secant theorem:

"When a tangent and a secant are drawn from one single external point to a circle, square of the length of tangent segment must be equal to the product of lengths of whole secant segment and the exterior portion of secant segment."

Here, the external length of tangent segment = 10

Also, the length of internal segment  is 14 and c.

So, by the SECANT THEOREM:

(10)^2  = 14 \times c\\\implies c = \frac{100}{14} = 7.14

or, c  = 7. 1428

Now, rounding off the value of c = 7. 14 to the nearest tenth, we get

c = 7. 4

Hence the correct value of  c  = 7.4

A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed lifespan, with a mean of 12.3 years, and standard deviation of
Zolol [24]

Answer:

probability of lasting longer = 1.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

x' = 14 years

μ = 12.3 years

s = 0.8 years

Thus, let's use the formula for the Z-score value which is;

z = (x' - μ)/s

Thus;

z = (14 - 12.3)/0.8

z = 2.125

From the z-distribution table attached, the p-value is ;

P(x' > 2.125) = 1 - 0.983 = 0.017 = 1.7%

Thus,probability of lasting longer = 1.7%

Why is 1/2 of 2 equals one whole
algol [13]
Hey There :)

This is because one is half of two. You could also multiply 2 * 0.5= 1, 0.5 represents \frac{1}{2} and two is the whole number. This is how \frac{1}{2} of two equals one.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

145

Step-by-step explanation:

75% of 200 = 150

75% + 15% = 90%

100% - 90% = 10%

10% of 200 = 20

10% of 150 = 15

150 + 15  - 20 = 145

145 friends attended the party.
