Answer:

<em>48 spices</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of spices each has is a multiple of 5, 3, and 4.

The number of spices each has is 5x, 3x, and 4x.

Pru has 5x spices.

Piper has 3x spices.

Pru has 24 more spices than Piper, so

5x = 3x + 24

2x = 24

x = 12

Phoebe has 4x spices, so Phoebe has

4(12) = 48

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:  Pru, Piper, Phoebe their ratio 5:3:4 added = 12

What this would mean is that Pru has 5/12 of the total amount, Piper has 3/12 of the total, and Phoebe has 4/12 of the total amount of spices all together.


pru = piper + 24

5/12x = 3/12x + 24

5/12x - 3/12x = 24

2/12x = 24

x = 24 / (1/6)

x = 24 * 6

x = 144 spices in all.


Pru has : 5/12(144) = 720/12 = 60 spices

Piper has : 3/12(144) = 432/12 = 36 spices

Phoebe has : 4/12(144) = 576/12 = 48 spices <====

A. Multiplication is the ONLY function that reverses what division did. If you did 56/-14 = n, then n x -14 should equal 56.

Solve the following triangle completely.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The answers is below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) A = 180 - 25.6 - 124.4 = 30 degrees.

Next use the Sine Rule:

b / sin B = c / sin C

b / sin 25.6 = 39.2/sin 124.4

b = (39.2 * sin 25.6) / sin 124.4

b = 20.53 m.

Also

a / sin A = c / sin C

a / sin 30 = 39.2 / sin 124.4

a =  (39.2 * sin 30 / sin 124.4

a = 23.75 m.

b). This is solved in a similar way to (a).

First find angle C  using the sine rule.

Then you will know angle A  from the 180 degree Rule.

Then you can find the length of  a using the Sine Rule.
