Answer:

$\boxed{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Subtract what Maurice ate

4⅘ c

<u>- ⅕ c </u>

4⅗ c

2. Calculate the number of bags

$\text{Number of bags }= \dfrac{\text{Total volume}}{\text{Volume of each bag}} = 4\frac{3}{5} \div \frac{3}{5}$

(a) Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction

$4\frac{3}{5} \div \frac{3}{5} = \frac{23}{5}\div\frac{3}{5}$

(b) Invert the denominator and change division to multiplication

$\frac{23}{5}\div\frac{3}{5} = \frac{23}{5}\times \frac{5}{3}$

(c) Cancel the 5s

$\frac{23}{5}\times \frac{5}{3} = \frac{23}{3}$

(d) Convert the improper fraction to a mixed number.

$\frac{23}{3} = \mathbf{7\frac{2}{3}}\\\text{Maurice can make $\boxed{\mathbf{7}}$ complete bags of trail mix.}$

A group of 50 people were asked their gender and if they liked cats. The data from the survey are shown in the Venn diagram. Det

Alja [10]

Answer:

a = 13,

b = 28,

c = 6,

d = 22,

e = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

E = 15 +16 = 31

6 males like cats ( the middle section) so C = 6

d = 6 +16 = 22

a = 19-6 = 13

b = 50-22 = 28

so in order: a = 13, b = 28, c = 6, d = 22, e = 31

Carlos drew a plan for his garden on a coordinate plane. Rose bushes are located at A(–5, 4), B(3, 4), and C(3, –5)

BartSMP [9]

Given:

A(-5,4)

B(3,4)

C(3,-5)

So point D is:

so point D is (-5,-5)

For AB is

Distance between two point is:

$\begin{gathered} (x_1,y_1)and(x_2,y_2) \\ D=\sqrt[]{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} \end{gathered}$

so distance between A(-5,4) and B(3,4) is:

$\begin{gathered} D=\sqrt[]{(3-(-5))^2+(4-4)^2} \\ =\sqrt[]{(8)^2+0^2} \\ =8 \end{gathered}$

So AB is 8 unit apart.

For B(3,4) and C(3,-5).

$\begin{gathered} D=\sqrt[]{(3-3)^2+(-5-4)^2} \\ =\sqrt[]{0^2+(-9)^2} \\ =9 \end{gathered}$

So BC is 9 unit apart.

For fourth bush point is (-5,-5) it left of point C(3,-5) is:

$\begin{gathered} D=\sqrt[]{(3-(-5))^2+(-5-(-5))^2} \\ =\sqrt[]{(8)^2+0^2} \\ =8 \end{gathered}$

so fourth bush is 8 unit left of C.

For fourth bush(-5,-5) below to point A(-5,4)

$\begin{gathered} D=\sqrt[]{(-5-(-5))^2+(4-(-5))^2} \\ =\sqrt[]{0^2+9^2} \\ =9 \end{gathered}$

so fourth bush 9 units below of A.

If you purchase a dozen bagels, you save 10% If a dozen bagels originally costs $11.50, what is the sale price

KonstantinChe [14]

10 percent of 11.50 is 1.15. Subtract that from 11.50 and you would get 10.35. The sale price would be $10.35
