Answer:

1. Typed question: 175 green eggs

2. Attached: 22 tables

Step-by-step explanation:

For the question you typed down, it is a ratio and proportion problem. You need to solve for the ratio proportional to the first ratio given.

4 blue eggs are filled for every 7 green. This means that the ratio between blue eggs and green eggs is 4:7.

Now yo need to figure out a ratio proportional to 4:7 if 100 blue eggs were filled. Below is how this is set up:

\dfrac{4\;blue\;eggs}{7\;green\;eggs} = \dfrac{100\;blue\;eggs}{x\;green\;eggs}

Now let's solve for x:

\dfrac{4\;blue\;eggs}{7\;green\;eggs} = \dfrac{100\;blue\;eggs}{x\;green\;eggs}\\\\or\\\\\dfrac{4}{7}=\dfrac{100}{x}\\\\Cross-multiply\\\\4x = (7)(100)\\\\4x = 700\\\\Divide\;both\;sides\;by\;4\\\\\dfrac{4x}{4}=\dfrac{700}{4}\\\\x=175

For your attached problem:

You have a total of 175 people, you need to figure out how many round tables you need if here are 8 chairs for each table You just need to divide the number of people by the number of chairs per table.

175 ÷ 8 = 21.9 tables

Now since you cannot have half a table, you round up to the nearest whole number. (we round up because you need to make sure that all of them are seated)

21.9 ≅ 22 tables.

Find the length of the line PA.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

RO divides the rectangle into two congruent right triangles.

The area of the one triangle is equal half area of the rectangle.

Calculate the area of rectangle:

A_R=lw\\l=12,\ w=5\\\\A_R=12\cdot5=60

The area of right triangle:

A_T=\dfrac{1}{2}A_R\to A_T=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot60=30

Use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the length of RO:

|RO|^2=5^2+12^2\\\\|RO|^2=25+144\\\\|RO|^2=169\to|RO|=\sqrt{169}\to|RO|=13

The formula of an area of this right triangle is:

A_T=\dfrac{1}{2}|RO||PA|

Therefore we have the equation:

\dfrac{1}{2}(13)|PA|=30\qquad|\cdot2\\\\13|PA|=60\quad|:13\\\\|PA|=\dfrac{60}{13}\\\\|PA|\approx4.62

Since the Boston marathon began in 1897, the finish time has been incrementally decreasing. The mean finish time to date is 231
morpeh [17]

Answer:

hello your question lacks the required options but i will provide a general answer to your question

answer : The mean value  and the standard deviation would allow us use a Z-score

Step-by-step explanation:

mean value = 231 minutes

standard deviation ( std ) = 40 minutes

sample size = 40

The parameters that would be applicable while use Z-score are : The given mean value and the standard deviation

This is because the value of a z-score gives us an information on how far we are from the mean score i.e. number of standard deviations

+Zscore means that the score  is above the average value

-Zscore means that the score is below the average value

26. Given the point A(-2,4) translate (x,y) → (x – 4, y - 3) and then reflect over the line y = -x.
Zepler [3.9K]

<em>Greetings from Brasil...</em>

Here is the graphical explanation in the annex.

A = (-2; 4)

A' = (-2 - 4; 4 - 2) = (-6; 1)

After reflection on F(X)
