Take 8 and divide it by 3 1/3. to make it easer 1/3 could be .3 as a decimal.
so 8 divided by 3.3.
8/3.3= 2.42
so it would be 2.42 tons of sugar per container.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: The probability is 1/190 = 0.005

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of ordering two specific toppings out of 20 is:

For the first selection he can order 2 of them, peperoni or sausage, so the probability for the first selection is 2/20 = 1/10 (the number of correct options divided by the total number of options)

For the second selection we have only one option, because we assume that the other one was selected previously, here we also had a total of 19 toppings because one already was selected, the probability in this selection is 1/19.

The joint probability is equal to the product of those two probabilities:

P = (1/19)*(1/10) = 1/190 = 0.005

The points (0,2) and (1,5) are on a line which of these points is on the same line
katrin [286]

Answer:

y = 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for two points on a line is generated from the straight line equation y = mx + b ---------------- eqn (i)

where m, the slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)  

therefore for (0,2) and (1,5) m = (5 - 2)/(1 - 0) = 3

This implies that eqn (i) can be rewritten as:

y = 3x + b ------------------- eqn (ii)

pickintg the point (0,2) and substituting into eqn (ii)

2 = 3(0) + b

this implies that b = 2

for confirmation with (1,5)

5 = 3(1) + b

b = 5 - 3 = 2

hence m = 3, b = 2

the equation is y = 3x + 2

Find the remaining trigonometric ratios of θ if csc(θ) = -6 and cos(θ) is positive
VikaD [51]
Now, the cosecant of θ is -6, or namely -6/1.

however, the cosecant is really the hypotenuse/opposite, but the hypotenuse is never negative, since is just a distance unit from the center of the circle, so in the fraction -6/1, the negative must be the 1, or 6/-1 then.

we know the cosine is positive, and we know the opposite side is -1, or negative, the only happens in the IV quadrant, so θ is in the IV quadrant, now

\bf csc(\theta)=-6\implies csc(\theta)=\cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{6}}{\stackrel{opposite}{-1}}\impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{adjacent side}}
\\\\\\
\textit{using the pythagorean theorem}\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-b^2}=a
\qquad 
\begin{cases}
c=hypotenuse\\
a=adjacent\\
b=opposite\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\pm\sqrt{6^2-(-1)^2}=a\implies \pm\sqrt{35}=a\implies \stackrel{IV~quadrant}{+\sqrt{35}=a}

recall that 

\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
\qquad\qquad 
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}
\\\\\\
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}
\qquad \qquad 
% cotangent
cot(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{opposite}
\\\\\\
% cosecant
csc(\theta)=\cfrac{hypotenuse}{opposite}
\qquad \qquad 
% secant
sec(\theta)=\cfrac{hypotenuse}{adjacent}

therefore, let's just plug that on the remaining ones,

\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{-1}{6}
\qquad\qquad 
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{6}
\\\\\\
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{-1}{\sqrt{35}}
\qquad \qquad 
% cotangent
cot(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{1}
\\\\\\
sec(\theta)=\cfrac{6}{\sqrt{35}}

now, let's rationalize the denominator on tangent and secant,

\bf tan(\theta)=\cfrac{-1}{\sqrt{35}}\implies \cfrac{-1}{\sqrt{35}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{\sqrt{35}}\implies \cfrac{-\sqrt{35}}{(\sqrt{35})^2}\implies -\cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{35}
\\\\\\
sec(\theta)=\cfrac{6}{\sqrt{35}}\implies \cfrac{6}{\sqrt{35}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{35}}{\sqrt{35}}\implies \cfrac{6\sqrt{35}}{(\sqrt{35})^2}\implies \cfrac{6\sqrt{35}}{35}

. Solve for the missing value (x).
just olya [345]

The missing value of x will be 9.6 mL.

<h3>What are ratio and proportion?</h3>

A ratio is a collection of ordered integers a and b represented as a/b, with b never equaling zero. A proportionate expression is one in which two items are equal.

The equation is given below.

12.5 mg : 5 mL = 24 mg : x mL

Then the value of x will be

12.5 / 5 = 24 / x

          x = (24 × 5) / 12.5

          x = 9.6 mL

More about the ratio and the proportion link is given below.

The probability that Josslyn is on time for a given class is 99 percent. If there are 32 classes during the semester, what is th
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The best estimate is 32 out of 32 times, she will be early to class

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of being early is 99% = 99/100 = 0.99

So out of 32 classes, the best estimate for the number of times she will be early to class will be;

0.99 * 32 = 31.68

To the nearest integer = 32
