Answer:

both : Sal or his sister

Step-by-step explanation:

comic books: 8

detective books: 4

total books: 12

so 8/12 books are comic books, so Sal was right

But, his sister could also be right because 8/12 and 2/3 are proportional

proportional: this when they have the same ratio or they are equivalent

2/3 times 4/4 = 8/12

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

<em>There are 21 jelly beans in the jar.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of jelly beans in the jar is  x

Two were off by 2, two were off by 3, two were off by 4. That means, the six guessed number will be:  (x+2), (x-2), (x+3), (x-3), (x+4), (x-4)

Given that, Alice guessed 25; Betty, 18; Clare, 23; Dotty, 19; Edith, 24; and Fran, 17.

So, the sum of all six guessed number will be:  25+18+23+19+24+17=126

Thus, the equation will be..........

(x+2)+(x-2)+(x+3)+(x-3)+(x+4)+(x-4)= 126\\ \\ 6x= 126\\ \\ x=\frac{126}{6}=21

So, the number of jelly beans in the jar is 21.

Maslowich

Answer:

B) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. <em>It is either 3 or 4</em>, since those are only two angles comparing the lighthouse and the boat.

2. The angle of depression is noted below the horizontal and above the actual line, and out of 3 and 4, <em>4 is the only angle that is below its corresponding horizontal</em>.

So, the angle of depression from the lighthouse to the boat is 4.
