Answer:

3.375 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of pounds of pecans =

2 1/2 pounds of pecans + 4 3/8 pounds + 3.25 pounds

= (6.875 + 3.25) pounds

= 10.125 pounds.

The total number of person = 3 person.

Therefore, the number of pounds each person would shell =

10.125 pounds/3

= 3.375 pounds

What is the factorization of 729^15+1000?
igomit [66]

Answer:

The factorization of 729x^{15} +1000 is (9x^{5} +10)(81x^{10} -90x^{5} +100)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of factorization by <em>sum and difference of cubes</em>, this type of factorization applies only in binomials of the form (a^{3} +b^{3} ) or (a^{3} -b^{3}). It is easy to recognize because the coefficients of the terms are <u><em>perfect cube numbers</em></u> (which means numbers that have exact cubic root, such as 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, 343, 512, 729, 1000, etc.) and the exponents of the letters a and b are multiples of three (such as 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, etc.).

Let's solve the factorization of 729x^{15} +1000 by using the <em>sum and difference of cubes </em>factorization.

1.) We calculate the cubic root of each term in the equation 729x^{15} +1000, and the exponent of the letter x is divided by 3.

\sqrt[3]{729x^{15}} =9x^{5}

1000=10^{3} then \sqrt[3]{10^{3}} =10

So, we got that

729x^{15} +1000=(9x^{5})^{3} + (10)^{3} which has the form of (a^{3} +b^{3} ) which means is a <em>sum of cubes.</em>

<em>Sum of cubes</em>

(a^{3} +b^{3} )=(a+b)(a^{2} -ab+b^{2})

with a= 9x^{5} y b=10

2.) Solving the sum of cubes.

(9x^{5})^{3} + (10)^{3}=(9x^{5} +10)((9x^{5})^{2}-(9x^{5})(10)+10^{2} )

(9x^{5})^{3} + (10)^{3}=(9x^{5} +10)(81x^{10}-90x^{5}+100)

If y = kx, what is the value of k if y = 20 and x = 0.4? A) 5 B) 8 C) 9.6 D) 50
Margaret [11]
Answer: D, 50
y = kx          <span>y = 20 and x = 0.4
</span>
What you will do: You will plug in your y and your x.
Your equation should look like: 20=k(0.4)
Next: What you will do is divide each side of your equal sign by 0.4 so you will get your k alone.
You would get: k=50

HOPE THIS HELPS! ^_^

In baseball, Shintaro had 4 hits in his last 12 times at bat.
swat32

Answer:

The probability of shintaro is 4/12 simplified which is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

It's like saying.. Someone had won 4 races every 12 race

You divide both side of 4/12 till you can't divide anymore

4/12

3/9

2/6

1/3

AYUDAAA porfavorrrr primera urna 6 bolas verdes y 3 rojas segunda urna 3 verdes, 3 blancas y 3 rojas tercera urna 6 verdes, 1 bl
marin [14]

We have the following information:

first urn: 6 green balls and 3 red ones

total: 6 + 3 = 9

second urn: 3 green, 3 white and 3 red

total: 3 + 3 + 3 = 9

third urn: 6 green, 1 white and 2 red

total: 6 + 1 + 2 = 9

a) A green ball is more likely to be obtained, since there are more green balls than red balls, which makes the probability higher.

b) probability of drawing a green, red and white ball.

first urn:

green = 6/9 = 66.66%

red = 3/9 = 33.33%

white = 0/9 = 0%

second urn:

green = 3/9 = 33.33%

red = 3/9 = 33.33%

white = 3/9 = 33.33%

third urn:

green = 6/9 = 66.66%

red = 2/9 = 22.22%

white = 1/9 = 11.11%

c) it would be chosen where the probability of drawing green would be the highest, which means that it would be possible both in the first and in the third ballot box, the probability is equal 66.66%

d) without a green ball, the third ballot box would look like this:

5 green balls, 2 red balls and 1 white ball, with a total of 8.

The probability of drawing would be:

green = 5/8 = 62.5%

red = 2/8 = 25%

white = 1/8 = 12.5%
