Answer:

48 cookies were sold in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

5:1 is the ratio of raisin cookies to oatmeal cookies, and 40 raisin cookies were sold. Meaning, 40:?.

To find the number of oatmeal cookies you divide 40 by 5, which gets 8. This means that the original ratio is multiplied by 8 to get the current ratio for the amount if cookies. 5(8) : 1(8) = 40:8. There are 40 raisin cookies and 8 oatmeal cookies. 40+8=48. There were 48 cookies sold in total.

Given the function f(x) = 4x + 1, EXPLAIN and show how to find the average rate of change between x = 1 and x = 3.
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The average rate of change is calculated as the slope of the line between the two points on the graph. Since at x = 1, y = -3, and at x = 3, y = 1, these are the two points which we calculate the slope from. Using the formula

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (1 - (-3))/(3 - 1)

m = 4/2

m = 2

Therefore the slope, or the average rate of change, between these points is 2.

A man is trying to calculate the shadow of a 24 flag pole. He uses similar triangles by comparing his own height 5 ft to the len
Pie

Answer:

The answer to your question is 12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Height of the flag pole = 24

shadow of the flag pole = x

height of the man = 5 ft

shadow of the man = 2.5 ft

Process

1.- Use the Thales' theorem to solve this problem

shadow of the flag pole/height of the flag pole = shadow of the man/height

                                                                                                 of the man

- Substitution

                     x/24 = 2.5/5

- Solve for x

                    x = 2.5(24)/5

- Simplification

                    x = 60/5

-Result

                   x = 12 ft

group of 30 students from your school is part of the audience for a TV game show the total number of people in the audience is 1
Soloha48 [4]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The theoretical probability of four students from your school being selected as contestants out of 8 possible contestants spots =  \frac{14}{165}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students participated  = 30

Total audience = 150

By probability , to find the solution = \frac{n(E)}{n(S)}  

where n(E) is the number of favorable outcomes,

n(S) is the number of total outcomes.

 n(S) is the number of ways any 8 students can by picked from the audience=  \frac{8}{140}

 n(E) is the probability of picking four students from our school and five students from another school.

n(E) = (\frac{4}{30}) (\frac{4}{110}) = \frac{16}{3300}

\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}  = \frac{\frac{16}{3300}}{\frac{8}{140}} = \frac{14}{165}
