8.42 Three bags of jelly beans contain 26,28 , and 30 beans. In each bag, the percent of the beans that are yellow is 50%, 25%,

olasank [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure out the number of yellow beans in each bag:

Bag A: 0.5*26 = 13 beans

Bag B: 0.25*28 = 7 beans

Bag C: 0.2*30 = 6 beans

The total number of beans in the bowl: 26+28+30 = 84

Total number of yellow beans: 13+7+6 = 26

Percentage of yellow beans: 26/84 *100 = 30.9523

Rounded answer: 31%

A biology class examined some flowers in a local meadow. Out of the 40 flowers they saw, 8 were perennials. What percentage of t

Sladkaya [172]

So first we want to say, 8 out of the 40 flowers were perennials.

8 out of 40 is 8/40, or simplified down to 1/5.

1/5 in percentage form is 20% because 1 divided by 5 = 20%.

Help and explain explain !!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

$x=-1\text{ or }x=11$

Step-by-step explanation:

For $a=|b|$ , we have two cases:

$\begin{cases}a=b,\\a=-b\end{cases}$

Therefore, for $18=|15-3x|$ , we have the following cases:

$\begin{cases}18=15-3x,\\18=-(15-3x)\end{cases}$

Solving, we have:

$\begin{cases}18=15-3x, -3x=3, x=\boxed{-1},\\18=-(15-3x), 18=-15+3x, 33=3x, x=\boxed{11}\end{cases}$ .

Therefore,

$\implies \boxed{x=-1\text{ or }x=11}$

Find the difference in simplest form. 2b/b^2-2b+1 - 2/b^2-2b+1

kolezko [41]

1) factor the denominators: 2b/(b-1)2 - 2/ (b-1)2
2) MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A COMMON DENOMINATOR
3) combine the numerators: 2b-2/(b-1)2
4) distribute 2 from numerator: 2(b-1)/(b-1)2
5) simplify; answer is 2/(b-1)
