Answer:

You have a 25%, or 1/4 chance that you will choose a yellow paper clip.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, you want to find the total number of paper clips.

6 + 3 + 4 + 2 + 5 = 20 total paper clips

<u>This is your denominator.</u>

2) From the problem, we can understand that there are 5 yellow paper clips.

<u>This is your numerator.</u>

3) From the numerator and denominator we have from above, your fraction is 5/20.

4) This can be simplified into 1/4, which is 25%.

If an ambulance has an average speed of 0.83 miles per minute and an average response time of 8 minutes, what is the average dis
Mrac [35]

Answer: The average distance the ambulance travels to reach an emergency situation is 6.64 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the speed formula:

Speed rate = distance / time  

Replacing with the values given:

0.83 miles per minute  = d / 8 minutes

Solving for d (distance)

0.83 mpm x 8 m =d

d =6.64 miles

The average distance the ambulance travels to reach an emergency situation is 6.64 miles.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

the relationship between the relative size of an earthquake, S, and the measure of the earthquake on the Richter scale, R, is gi
omeli [17]

Answer:

Relative Size, S, is 1584.89


Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is R=log_{10}(S)

Where,

  • R is the measurement in Richter Scale
  • S is the relative size of the earthquare

<u>It is given that in Richter Scale, an earthquake measured 3.2, so R=3.2.</u>

<em>They want to know relative size, S, so we put given information in equation and solve for S:</em>

R=log_{10}(S)\\3.2=log_{10}(S)

<em>Converting to exponential form, we have:</em>

3.2=log_{10}(S)\\S=10^{3.2}\\S=1584.8932

<em>Rounding to nearest hundredth, we have:</em>

S=1584.89

if a cake was sold GH 200 cedis. However, there is a reduction sale of 10% on each cake if you buy 4. Amanda decides to buy 8 ca
MrMuchimi

Amanda needs to pay 1440 cedis for purchasing 8 cakes on discounted price.

<h3>What is Cost Price?</h3>

Cost price is the amount we pay to buy an item at which it is available.

Here,

Selling price of a cake = 200 cedis

Discount because of sale = 10% on each unit.

                                              (Only if 4 cakes purchased at a time)

Amanda purchased 8 cakes

So, Amanda need to pay only 90 percent of the total amount.

Total cost price of 8 cakes for Amanda = (200 X 90%) X 8

                                                                  = 180 X 8

                                                                  = 1440

Thus, Amanda needs to pay 1440 cedis for purchasing 8 cakes on discounted price.

u would multiply 330 and 6
then divide 330 in half
330x6=1980
330/2=165
then add those together
