Answer:

5/18

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9 pieces of fruit in the bowl,  tangerines and 5 clementines.

Assuming that they do not put the fruit back

P (tangerine) = number of tangerines/ total = 4/9

Then John keeps his and there are  8 pieces of fruit in the bowl,  

3 tangerines and 5 clementines.

P (Clementine) = number of clementines/ total = 5/8

P (tangerine, no replacement, Clementine) = P (tangerine) * P (Clementine)

                                                                        = 4/9 * 5/8 =5/18

Answer:

5/18

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find each of their probabilities separately

2. John= # of tangerines/ total # of fruit

3. John = 4/9

4. Pam = # of clementines/ total # of fruit left

5. Pam= 5/8

6. Multiply the two together to get the probability that both pick the fruit they want

7. 4/9 times 5/8

8. 5/18

Cost to store: $140<br><br> Markup: 25%
anastassius [24]
The actual cost to the store = $140
Percentage of markup = 25%
Amount of markup in cost = (25/100) * 140 dollars
                                        = 35 dollars
Then
Sell price in the store = (35 + 140) dollars
                                   = 175 dollars
So the sell price of the product at the store after addition of the markup price will be $175.

Given the equation -5x+2y=-10 what is the equation of the line perpendicular to the line?
meriva

Answer:

The equation of the perpendicular line would be y = -2/5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this line, we must first find the slope of the original line. We do this by solving for y.

-5x + 2y = -10

2y = 5x - 10

y = 5/2x - 5

This shows us a slope of 5/2. TO find the perpendicular slope, we use the opposite and reciprocal. This means we negative 5/2 to get -5/2 and then we flip it to get -2/5. Now that we have this, we can use the slope and the point in point-slope form to get the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = -2/5(x + 5)

y - 1 = -2/5x - 2

y = -2/5x - 1

amid [387]
The complete question is
<span>There are two flavors of ice cream; strawberry and chocolate. the amount of strawberry ice cream is in the shape of a sphere. the amount of chocolate ice cream fills the rest of the cone. the dimensions of the sphere is 6cm and the cone is 12cm.

the figure is not drawn to scale  

A. what is the volume, in cubic centimeters of the right circular cone ?show or explain how you got your answer.
B. the amount of strawberry ice cream is in the shape of a sphere. what is the volume in cubic centimeters of the strawberry ice cream?
C. what is the total volume in cubic centimeters of all the ice creams?
D.the amount of chocolate ice cream fills the rest of the cone. what is the volume in cubic centimeters of the chocolate ice cream?  

we know that
the height of the cone is 12 cm
the diameter of a cone is 6 cm

Part A) </span>what is the volume, in cubic centimeters of the right circular cone? show or explain how you got your answer.

we know that
the volume of a cone=(1/3)*pi*r²*h
r=6/2----> 3 cm
h=12 cm
The volume of a cone=(1/3)*pi*3²*12------> 36*pi cm³-------> 113.04 cm³

the answer part A) is 36*pi cm³  (113.04 cm³)

Part B) the amount of strawberry ice cream is in the shape of a sphere. what is the volume in cubic centimeters of the strawberry ice cream?
volume of a sphere=(4/3)*pi*r³
r=3 cm
volume of a sphere=(4/3)*pi*3³-----> 36*pi cm³------> 113.04 cm³

the answer part B) is 36*pi cm³  (113.04 cm³)

Part C) what is the total volume in cubic centimeters of all the ice creams?
volume of the cone+volume of a hemisphere

36*pi+18*pi-----> 54*pi cm³-------> 169.56 cm³

the answer Part C) is 54*pi cm³ (169.56 cm³)

Part D) .the amount of chocolate ice cream fills the rest of the cone. what is the volume in cubic centimeters of the chocolate ice cream?
volume of a cone-volume of a hemisphere
36*pi-18*pi-----> 18*pi cm³-----> 56.52 cm³

the answer Part D) is 18*pi cm³ (56.52 cm³)
