Answer: 120 pieces.


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1 yard = 36 inches

Given: The length of each piece of ribbon= 25 yards=25\times36=900\text{ inches}

If she needs to cut 22 inches long pieces, then the total number of pieces cut from 1 ribbon=\frac{900}{22}=40.0909\approx40\text{ pieces}

Thus, the total number of pieces she cut from 3 ribbons=3\times40=120\text{ pieces}

Hence, the greatest number of 22-inch pieces that she can cut from the three ribbons =120

Well 1 yard is 36 inches so 25 yards is 900 and then divide the 900 by 22 which equals 40.9090 but you have to put this down to 40 and because you have 3 ribbons it's 40 x 3 = 120!

Answer:

The probability that you would choose lemon-lime and then orange is 3/11 =.273.  

Step-by-step explanation:

These are 'dependent events', which mean that your the event is affected by previous events.  So, because you have eleven total bottles (five lemon-lime and six orange) and you do not replace the first bottle, that would only leave you with ten bottles remaining.  The probability that you will pick the lemon-lime on the first choice is 5/11 because all of the bottles are there.  However, your second choice will only include ten total bottles since you already took one.  The probability that you would choose orange would be 6/10.  When you multiply these two fractions and reduce to simplest form, you get 3/11.

sergey [27]
268 gallons are remaining. The equation would be y=324-7x, with x being 8. 7(8) is 56, and then you take away 56 from 324, which then gives you 268 gallons remaining

A condominium building has 25 condo units. Each unit has 5 windows. Ryder said that there are 125 windows altogether.
crimeas [40]
The answer is B, 30 x 5 The answer is reasonable. Ryder is correct. It reasonable because if 25 x 5 is 125, then 30 x 5 won't be too much to be unreasonable. 30 x 5 is 150, therefore it is only 25 windows higher, so it is reasonable. Hope this helps! :)
