Answer: 77
Step-by-step explanation: Based on the order of operations or PEMDAS, parentheses are always done first.
So our first step in this problem is to simplify (9 + 2) to get 11.
So we now have (7) (11) which is 77.
The number of buckets is directly proportional to the area and the thickness of the wall and inversely proportional to the amount of paint. Mathematically, we can write:
n = k · (a · t) / p
where k is the proportionality constant which we do not know.
We can calculate k with the given data: 5 2-gallon buckets, area of 100 square feet and thickness 3 inches:
k = (n · p) / (<span>a · t)
= (5 </span>· 2) / (100 · 3) = 0.0333
Now that we know the constant, we can calculate the area that can be painted with 8 2-gallon buckets if the thickness is 6 inches:
a = (n · p) / (k<span> · t)
= (8 </span>· 2) / (0.0333 · 6)
= 80 ft²
Please, note that we made sure to have the exact same units of measurements than the previous case.
Therefore, the correct answer is an area of 80 ft².
2*(x-5) = -33, so x-5 = -16.5, so x = -11.5
This is assuming that "the difference between a and b" is a-b, which seems to be the accepted interpretation.
Answer:
Randomly selecting a six of diamonds - 1 / 52
Randomly selecting a 7, 8, 9 or 10 - 4 / 13
Step-by-step explanation:
There is only 1 six of diamonds in a standard deck of cards. There are 52 cards in a deck, thus the probability of pulling a six of diamonds is 1 in 52.
There are 4 of each card in a deck. so they are 4 7's, 4 8's. 4 9's and 4 10's. And there are a total of 52 cards in a deck. So the probability of pulling a 7,8,9 or 10 are 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 in 52
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16
16 / 52 simplified is 4 / 13 Therefore the is a 4 in 13 chance of pulling a 7 8 9 or 10
The other ones are correct
