Answer:

There were 20 picks total

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a proportion to solve this problem.  Put the orange picks on top and the total picks on bottom

3 orange         12 orange

-------------- =   ---------------

5 total                x total

Using cross products

3x = 5*12

3x= 60

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 60/3

x = 20

There were 20 picks total

In this problem we'll work with fractions and equality:

So, "3 out of 5" is represented by \frac{3}{5}. The numerator is the number of orange picks, and the denominator is the total number of picks.

So, if we have 12 orange picks, it means that from our original fraction (\frac{3}{5}) the 3 became a 12, which means it has been multiplied by 4. Finally, we multiply our denominator by the same number: 4 * 5 = 20


Therefore:

In all, there were 20 picks, 12 of them orange, or as a fraction, \frac{12}{20}



Hope it helped,

A(c−b)=d solve for c
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The solution to this equation could not be determined.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

a(c + -1b) = d

Reorder the terms:

a(-1b + c) = d

(-1b * a + c * a) = d

(-1ab + ac) = d

Solving

-1ab + ac = d

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Combine like terms: d + -1d = 0

-1ab + ac + -1d = 0

The solution to this equation could not be determined.

1. Find Angle A :

  • x  + 24 = 3x

  • 3x - x =   2 4

  • 2x = 24

  • x = 12

Angle A :

  • 3x

  • 3 \times 12

  • 36 \degree

2. Find Angle B :

  • 10x - 27 = 7x

  • 10x - 7x = 27

  • 3x = 27

  • x = 9

Angle B :

  • 10x - 27

  • (10 \times 9) - 27

  • 90 - 27

  • 63 \degree

Find Angle C :

  • 5x + 1 = 6x  - 13

  • 6x - 5 x =  1 + 13

  • x = 14

Angle C :

  • 5x + 1

  • (5 \times 14) + 1

  • 70 + 1

  • 71 \degree

Find Angle D :

  • 6x  +  3 = 4x + 39

  • 6x - 4x = 39  -  3

  • 2x = 36

  • x = 18

Angle D :

  • 4x + 39

  • (4 \times 18) + 39

  • 72 + 39

  • 111\degree

And it's given :

  • 36° = Angle A = B

  • 63° = Angle B = A

  • 71° = Angle C = H

  • 111° = Angle D = E

Therefore, the answer will be " BAHE "

The American Management Association is studying the income of store managers in the retail industry. A random sample of 49 manag
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval for the income of store managers in the retail industry is ($44,846, $45,994), having a margin of error of $574.

b) The interval mean that we are 95% sure that the true mean income of all store managers in the retail industry is between $44,846 and $45,994.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

We have to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a p-value of 1 - 0.025 = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96\frac{2050}{\sqrt{49}} = 574

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 45420 - 574 = $44,846.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 45420 + 574 = $45,994.

The 95% confidence interval for the income of store managers in the retail industry is ($44,846, $45,994), having a margin of error of $574.

Question b:

The interval mean that we are 95% sure that the true mean income of all store managers in the retail industry is between $44,846 and $45,994.

1. Find two numbers with a common factor of 3 only.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

All numbers can be written as a product of the prime numbers that conform them.

A) Find two numbers with a common factor of 3 only.

for example:

2*3 = 6

7*3 = 21

Both numbers have the factor 3 in them, and because the other two numbers are primes, we can be sure that the 3 is the only common factor.

B) Write a pair of numbers with a common factor of 2, 3 and  6.

Here we can write:

2*3*2 = 12

3*2*5 = 30

Those two numbers have the common factors 6, 2 and 3.

C) Write a pair of numbers with common factors of 3, 6 and  9.​

3*2*3 = 18 (has the factors 2, 3, 3*2 = 6, 3*3 = 9)

-3*2*6 = -36

Both have the common factors 3, 6 and 9 (and they share more common factors like 2, this happens because 6 = 3*2, so if 6 is a common factor, 2 also must be)

2(x + 2) + 2 = 2(x + 3) + 1
Maslowich

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x + 4) – x = 4(x + 5) – 1

x = ?

Solution:

5(x+4)−x=4(x+5)−1

Apply Distributive property:

  • (5)(x)+(5)(4)−x=(4)(x)+(4)(5)−1
  • 5x+20−x=4x+20−1

Combine Like Terms:

  • (5x−x)+(20)=(4x)+(20−1)
  • 4x+20=4x+19
  • 4x+20=4x+19

Subtract 4x from both sides:

  • 4x+20−4x=4x+19−4x
  • 20=19

Subtract 20 from both sides:

  • 20−20=19−20
  • 0=−1

There isn't any solutions.
