Answer:

She wrapped 5 presents

Step-by-step explanation:

She used 2cm to wrap each present

8cm = 4x

x is the amount of presents

divide by 4

x= 2 cm

Given 10 cm, divide by 2 to determine amount of x, or presents

Answer:

Part A: impossible

Part B: Either equal or blue

Part C: 9 green and 2 blue were added

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The only colors included in this problem are red, blue, and green. There is no black colored pencil, therefore, it is impossible to get one from the box.

Part B:

I'm not sure what you're asking in this question, but I will give you the two choices. If it is before the additional 11 colored pencils are added to the box, the chance of drawing a red and the chance of drawing a blue will be equal, because both of them have 11 of each color. If it is after the additional 11 colored pencils are added to the box, then the chance of drawing a blue colored pencil will be greater than the chance of drawing a red colored pencil. After the 11 colored pencils are added, there are 13 blue and 11 red. The blue is greater.

Part C:

The least number of green colored pencils added has to be 9, because the chance of drawing a green pencil is now greater than the chance of drawing a red pencil. If we add 8 more green pencils, the likelihood would be the same. Therefore, the number of green colored pencils added has to be at least 9. If we have the last 2 colored pencils be blue, then there would be 11 red, 13 blue, and 12 green. This fits all the conditions, therefore, adding 9 green colored pencils and 2 blue colored pencils is the answer.

I hope this helps and please mark me as brainliest!

A chicken soup recipe calls for

I have attached a screenshot with the complete question

Answer:
2 \frac{1}{4} cups

Explanation:
We know that one quart is equivalent to four cups. To know the number of quarts equivalent to 9 cups, we will simply use cross multiplication as follows:
1 quart ...............> 4 cups
?? quarts ...........> 9 cups

Number of cups = (9*1) / 4 = 2.25 = 2 \frac{1}{4} cups

Hope this helps :)

Practice question — Given the trapezoid to the right find the length of legs in the following isosceles trapezoid
ad-work [718]

Given:

A figure of an isosceles trapezoid with bases 18 and 24, and the vertical height is 4.

To find:

The legs of the isosceles trapezoid.

Solution:

Draw another perpendicular and name the vertices as shown in the below figure.

From the figure it is clear that the AEFD is a rectangle. So,

EF=AD=18

Since ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid, therefore in triangle ABE and DCF,

AB=DC               (Legs of isosceles trapezoid)

AE=DF                (Vertical height of isosceles trapezoid)

m\angle AEB=m\angle DFC             (Right angle)

\Delta ABE\cong \Delta DCF                (HL postulate)

BE=CF                (CPCTC)

Now,

BE+EF+FC=BC

2BE+18=24

2BE=24-18

2BE=6

BE=3

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle ABE, we get

Hypotenuse^2=Perpendicular^2+Base^2

(AB)^2=(AE)^2+(BE)^2

(AB)^2=(4)^2+(3)^2

(AB)^2=16+9

(AB)^2=25

Taking square root on both sides, we get

AB=\pm \sqrt{25}

AB=\pm 5

Side length cannot be negative. So, AB=5.

Therefore, the length of legs in the given isosceles trapezoid is 5 units.
