Answer:

The students have eaten 72 ounces of fruit snacks.

X = 72 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

There are total 20 packs of fruit snacks

The weight of each pack is 6 ounces.

Let us first find the total weight of the snacks.

Total weight = 6*20

Total weight = 120 ounces

Let X represents the ounces of fruit snacks that students have eaten.

Let Y represents the 48 ounces of fruit snacks left in the box

Total weight = X + Y

120 = X + 48

X = 120 - 48

X = 72 ounces

Therefore, the students have eaten 72 ounces of fruit snacks.

Answer:

x = 72 ounces

The number of ounces of fruit snacks the students ate is 72 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Let x represent the number of ounces of fruit the students ate;

The total number of ounces of fruit initially in the box is;

20 packs × 6 ounces/pack = 120 ounces

The remaining ounces of fruit is;

48 ounces

Therefore;

120 - x = 48

Solving for x;

x = 120 - 48

x = 72 ounces

The number of ounces of fruit snacks the students ate is 72 ounces

On a coordinate plane, triangle J K L has points (negative 2, 1), (0, 3), and (2, negative 1). Reflect the figure over the line
svetlana [45]

Answer:

J'(2, 1)

K'(0, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

On a coordinate plane, coordinates of the points J, K and L are (-2, 1), (0, 3) and (2, -1) respectively.

If we reflect these points over the line x = 0 or y-axis, rule to be followed is

(x, y) → (-x, y)

Only sign of x coordinates get changed while y coordinates remain the same.

Following this rule coordinates of the images of J' and K' will be

J(-2, 1) → J'(2, 1)

and K(0, 3) → K'(0, 3)

Suppose your current electricity meter reading is 25,789 kWh, and the reading on your last bill was 25,350 kWh. If you are charg
Brrunno [24]

The amount of bill is $43.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Current meter reading = 25,789 kWh

Reading on last bill = 25,350 kWh

Reading for the month = Current meter reading - Last month bill reading

Reading for the month = 25789 - 25350 = 439kWh

Cost per kWh = $0.0983

Cost of 439 kWh = 0.0983*439 = $43.1537

Rounding off to nearest hundredth

Cost of 439 kWh = $43.15

The amount of bill is $43.15

Suppose that events a and b are mutually exclusive with p(a) = ½ and p(b) = ⅓.
irina1246 [14]
No, a & b are not independent if they're mutually exclusive.

Mutually exclusive means the two events cannot occur simultaneously. So if "a" happens "b" cannot. In contrast, two events are independent if the occurrence of one has no effect on the occurrence of the other.
