The answer to the question
Monkeys: Bears
4 : 1
x : 7
x=28
Answer:
There are 56 stuffed animals and 28 mystery boxes in the claw arcade machine
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we assign variables.
Let the number of stuffed animals be x and the number of mystery boxes be y
The probability of selecting a stuffed animal is x/84 while the probability is selecting a mystery box is y/84
Now, since the total probability can be 1:
This means that
x/84 + y/84 = 1 •••••••(i)
Now from the question, we were told that the probability of selecting or winning a stuffed animal is twice that of winning a mystery box
Thus x/84 = 2 * y/84
X/84 = y/42
Let’s substitute this into equation 1
y/42 + y/84 = 1
(2y+ y)/84 = 1
3y/84 = 1
3y = 84
y = 84/3
y = 28
Since x + y = 84
x = 84 - y
x = 84-28 = 56
Answer:
The space on each side of the painting = 2 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Attached this answer is a diagram to give you visuals on how the value of x is calculated
Given:
width of wall = 10 feet
width of painting = 6 feet
Since the painting is centred on a wall, there is meant to be an equal space on each side of the painting, from the diagram, the following eaquation can be gotten
x + 6 + x = 10
2x + 6 = 10
2x = 10 - 6
2x = 4
x = 4 ÷2
x = 2 feet
Therefore, the space on each side of the painting = 2 feet
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically a terminating decimal is a decimal with an exact answer when you have no remainder left over. A repeating decimal is when you can never reach zero no matter how many times you divide the answer. It is always written with a line on top to show that it goes on forever and ever and it never ends.
