Answer:

-1/12x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total people at the picnic=x

People who chose apple= 1/3x

People who chose orange= 3/4x

People who chose each of the fruit= People who chose apple + People who chose orange

=1/3x + 3/4x

= 4x+9x / 12

=13/12x

People who chose each of the fruit= 13/12x

what fraction of the people chose both of them?

Fraction of the people who chose both fruits= Total people at the picnic - People who chose each of the fruit

=x - 13/12x

=12x- 13x /12

= -1/12 x

ben is filling up his cylinder shaped pool up to 80% of its capacity . If his is 6 feet deep and has a diameter of 18 feet, how
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

You will put 1220.83ft³ of water in the pool

Step-by-step explanation:

radius = half of diameter

d = 18ft

r = 18ft / 2 = 9ft

To calculate the volume of a cylinder we have to use the following formula:

v = volume

h = height = 6ft

π = 3.14

r = radius = 9ft

v = (π * r²) * h

we replace with the known values

v = (3.14 * (9ft)²) * 6ft

v = (3.14 * 81ft²) * 6ft

v = 254.34ft² * 6ft

v = 1526.04ft³

The volume of the cylinder is 1526.04ft³

If it is filled to 80% then we have to multiply the volume by 80/100

1526.04ft³  * 80/100 = 1220.83ft³

You will put 1220.83ft³ of water in the pool

There are 5 blue
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The probability of randomly picking a red candy is 1/20 and In percentage value 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 blue candies, 6 red candies, and 9 yellow candies.

Now, Total

5 + 6 + 9 = 20 candies

Now, The probability of randomly picking a red candy is 1/20

Now, In percentage

1/20 × 100% = 5%

Thus, The probability of randomly picking a red candy is 1/20 and In percentage value 5%.

I know this is like the 700th question I've asked​
AysviL [449]

Answer:

BC = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of parallel lines, AD and BE, triangles ADC and BEC are similar.

In similar triangles, the lengths of corresponding sides are proportional.

AC/BC = DC/EC

We see that AC = AB + BC = 3 + BC

Also, DC = DE + EC = 2 + 10 = 12

(3 + BC)/BC = 12/10

(3 + BC)/BC = 6/5

Cross multiply.

5(3 + BC) = 6BC

15 + 5BC = 6BC

15 = BC

BC = 15

Determine the equation of the line that is parallel to the given
vovangra [49]

Answer:

<u><em>y = 3x - 3</em></u>

Given:

y = 3x - 4

through (2, 3)

To Find:

equation of the line parallel to y = 3x - 4 through the given point (2, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

The line is parallel, so the slope is the same

y = 3x + b

Plug in the x and y values of your point

-3 = 3(2) + b

Solve for 'b'

-3 = 6 + b

0 = b + 3

b = -3

Your final equation is,

y = 3x - 3

Suppose you buy a CD for $11.95. There is a 20% discount, and you pay a 7% sales tax after the discount. Find the cost of the CD
DedPeter [7]

You can use proportions to find the answer.

20/100=?/11.95

20*11.95=239

239/100=2.39

So the discount takes $2.39 off of the original price.

11.95-2.39=9.56

7/100=?/9.56

7*9.56=66.92

66.93/100=0.6692

Round to nearest tenth: 0.67

9.56+0.67=10.23

The final cost of the CD is $10.23
