10/16 or 5/8 pounds. A third of 15 is 5 and the cheesy popcorn weighs 2/3lbs.

we know that

To find the weight of the cheesy popcorn Multiply the total weight by the proportion of the cheesy popcorn

so

\frac{15}{16} *\frac{2}{3}=\frac{30}{48}=\frac{5}{8}\ pounds

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the weight of the cheesy popcorn is \frac{5}{8}\ pounds

The perimeter of the scalene triangle is 54.6 cm. Which equation can be used to find the value of b if side a measures 8.7 cm?
77julia77 [94]

A scalene triangle is a triangle that has 3 sides that are all different lengths.

Let these letters represent the problem:

a = 8.7

b = side 2

c = side 3

P = 54.6

To find the perimeter, we just need to add all the sides [ P = a + b + c ]

So, put what we have in the formula above.

54.6 = 8.7 + b + c

Best of Luck!

Pls helpppppp this is a math emergency!
netineya [11]

Answer:

19.4in

Step-by-step explanation:

1) formula for area of a triangle:

(b*h)/2=a

the area and height are already given so lets substitute them in the formula.

(b*23.8)/2=230.86

1) multiply by 2 on both sides

b*23.8=461.72

divide by 23.8 on both sides

b=19.4

the base is 19.4 in

hope this helps

Answer:

P(4≤x≤7) = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by obtaining the sample space (S) i.e possible outcome of rolling both dice at the same time. This is illustrated below:

1,1 1,2 1,3 1,4 1,5 1,6

2,1 2,2 2,3 2,4 2,5 2,6

3,1 3,2 3,3 3,4 3,5 3,6

4,1 4,2 4,3 4,4 4,5 4,6

5,1 5,2 5,3 5,4 5,5 5,6

6,1 6,2 6,3 6,4 6,5 6,6

Adding the outcome together, the sample space (S) becomes:

2 3 4 5 6 7

3 4 5 6 7 8

4 5 6 7 8 9

5 6 7 8 9 10

6 7 8 9 10 11

7 8 9 10 11 12

Next, we shall obtain the event of 4≤x≤7. This is illustrated below:

4 5 6 7

4 5 6 7

4 5 6 7

4 5 6 7

4 5 6 7

4 5 6 7

Finally, we shall determine P(4≤x≤7). This can be obtained as follow:

Element in the sample space, n(S) = 36

Element in 4≤x≤7, n(4≤x≤7) = 24

Probability of 4≤x≤7, P(4≤x≤7) = ?

P(4≤x≤7) = n(4≤x≤7) / nS

P(4≤x≤7) = 24/36

P(4≤x≤7) = 2/3

Why do whole numbers raised to an exponent get greater well fractions raised to an exponent get smaller
adelina 88 [10]
Because when you raise an exponent on a fraction, it is basically dividing into itself.  Imagine 1/3 multiplied my 3 (Ans is 1), the fractions aren't whole numbers so when they multiply into another number, it uses division
