Answer:
56 cups of water
Step-by-step explanation:
Katrina drinks 0.5 gallons of water per day
We have 7 days in a week, hence, the number of gallons of water she drinks per week is calculated as:
1 day = 0.5 gallons
7 days = x
Cross Multiply
1 day × x = 7 days × 0.5 gallons
x = 7 days × 0.5 gallons/1 day
x = 3.5 gallons
Note that 16 cups = 1 gallon
The number of cups of water she drinks per week is
1 gallon = 16 cups
3.5 gallons = x
Cross Multiply
1 gallons × x = 3.5 gallons × 16 cups
x = 3.5 gallons × 16 cups/1 gallons
x = 56 cups
Therefore, Katrina drinks 56 cups of water in a week

The probability of her getting a red marble is the number of red marbles divided by the number of total marbles. Since she picked a green marble first, we must subtract one marble from the total number of marbles, so that the total # of marbles is 6 + 6 + 4 = 16 - 1 (green marble) = 15. Since there are 6 red marbles, our probability is 6/15 or 2/5. Converted to percentage form, this is 0.4 —> 40%
Both questions make use of the formula for the area of a triangle:
.. A = (1/2)*b*h
23. A = (1/2)*b*h
.. A = (1/2)*x*7 . . . . substitute the given values
.. A = 3.5x . . . . . . . simplified
24. A = (1/2)*b*h
.. 84.5 = (1/2)*13*h . . . . . substitute the given values
.. 2*84.5/13 = h = 13 . . . .solve for h
The height of the triangle is 13 cm.

Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x + 4 = 5 - 3x
Add 3x to each side
-2x+3x + 4 = 5 - 3x+3x
x +4 =5
Subtract 4 from each side
x+4-4 =5-4
x =1
