Answer:

Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries = 4 bran muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of pastries = 12

Bran muffins (Include) = 3

Find:

Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries.

Computation:

⇒ Ratio of bran muffins to total pastries = 3 / 12

⇒ Ratio of bran muffins to total pastries = 1 / 4

⇒ Ratio of bran muffins to total pastries = 0.25

Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries = Number of total pastries × Ratio of bran muffins to total pastries

⇒ Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries = 16 × 0.25

⇒ Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries = 4 bran muffins

Round the following numbers to 2 decimal places 
alexira [117]
Before I give you the answers, there is a simple rule to observe when rounding a number to two decimal places. If the number in the third decimal place is less than five, then the number in the second decimal place stays the same. If the number in the third decimal place is five or greater than five, the number in the second decimal place is incremented by one. In our case the above numbers are rounded up as follows:

0.273 is rounded up to 0.27
1.595 is rounded up to 1.60
6.473 is rounded up to 6.47
2.571 is rounded up to 2.57
0.425 is rounded up to 0.43
44.5564 is rounded up to 44.56
82.3643 is rounded up to 82.36
325.1741 is rounded up to 325.17

A bag contains x blue chips and y red chips. If the probability of selecting a red chip at random is 3/7, then x/y = ________.A.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

D. \frac{4}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a bag contains x blue chips and y red chips. The probability of selecting a red chip at random is 3/7. We are asked to find the \frac{x}{y}.

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}}

P(\text{Red})=\frac{\text{Number of red chips}}{\text{Total number of chips}}

P(\text{Red})=\frac{y}{x+y}

Since we are told that probability of selecting a red chip at random is 3/7, so red balls are 3 and total balls are 7:

P(\text{Red})=\frac{3}{x+3}

Since total balls are 7, so we will get:

x+3=7\\x=4

Upon substituting x=4\text{ and } y=3 in expression \frac{x}{y}, we will get:

\frac{4}{3}

Therefore, the value of \frac{x}{y} is \frac{4}{3} and option D is the correct choice.

Joline is solving the equation 0 = x2 – 5x – 4 using the quadratic formula. Which value is the negative real number solution to
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

- 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the general quadratic formula, as " x = -b \frac{+}{-}  \sqrt{(b^2-4ac)} / 2a. " This can be represented by two separate formula's, which will come in handy when determining the positive and negative roots of the equation ( and here we need the negative root ):

1 ) x = - b+ ( \sqrt{b^2-4ac} ) / 2a,

2 ) x = - b- ( \sqrt{b^2-4ac} ) / 2a

We know that a = 1, b = - 5, and c = - 4 from the equation " 0 = x^2 - 5x - 4 " ( which can be rewritten in the form 0 = ax^2 + bx + c ). Therefore, simply plug in these values into the quadratic formula to receive two solutions:

x = 5 + ( \sqrt{( - 5 )^2 - 4( 1 )( - 4 )} ) / 2( 1 ),\\x = 5 + ( \sqrt{25 + 16} ) / 2,\\x = 5 + \sqrt{41} / 2,\\x = ( About ) 5.7- This is our positive solution

__________

x = 5 - ( \sqrt{( - 5 )^2 - 4( 1 )( - 4 )} ) / 2( 1 ),\\x = 5 - ( \sqrt{25 + 16} ) / 2,\\x = 5 - \sqrt{41} / 2,\\x = ( About ) - 0.7- And this is our negative solution

You can see that - 0.7 is the negative real number solution to Joline's quadratic equation!
