Answer:

Mary has 12 friends, and a total of 13 people including her. Or, she has 25 friends, and a total of 26 people including her.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that 26 is divisible by 1, 2, 13, and 26 because (2x13) and (1x26) both equal 26 but we know that Mary has more than 1 friend and if Mary is also added to the group where the candy is divided, that means that 1 and 2 are both out because Mary has more than 1 friend so 1 cannot be the answer and if Mary has 2 friends, that means that the candy would have to be divided 3 ways which is not possible evenly so the answer is either 12 friends or 25 friends.

Answer:

35% chose baseball or soccer

Step-by-step explanation:

baseball or soccer = 20% + 15% = 35%

_____

The categories add to 100%, so are mutually exclusive, as you expect when they are "favorite sport" categories. Hence the union of two of them will be their sum. (Otherwise, you'd have to subtract the amount by which the categories overlap.)

If sec a = 5/4 and a is an angle in quadrant iv find the value of cos a

wariber [46]

We know that
<span>sec a = 5/4
</span>sec(a)=1/cos(a)
then
cos (a)=1/sec(a)
cos (a)=1/(5/4)=4/5---> is positive because the function cos is positive in IV quadrant

the answer is cos(a)=4/5
