Answer:

160 jars

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many jars were used, we just need to divide the amount of stuff by the amount of stuff a jar can hold.

400 (the amount of peanut number in pounds) / 2.5 (the amount of peanut butter each jar can hold) = 160.

So, 160 jars were used to package the 400 pounds of peanut butter.

Find the coordinates of P ' if D o, 2.4 (x,y) is applied to the triangle below
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The coordinates of P' are (4.8,-4.8).

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of dilation D_{o,2.4}(x,y) represent the dilation with scale factor 2.4 and center at origin.

If the scale factor of the dilation is k and the center is (0,0), then

(x,y)\rightarrow (kx,ky)

Since the scale factor is 2.4, therefore

(x,y)\rightarrow (2.4x,2.4y)

From the given figure it is noticed that the coordinates of P are (2,-2). The coordinates of P' are

P(2,-2)\rightarrow P'(2.4(2),2.4(-2))

P(2,-2)\rightarrow P'(4.8,-4.8)

Therefore the coordinates of P' are (4.8,-4.8).

A bag contains 8 purple marbles & 12 green marbles. You choose one marble out of the bag without looking.
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

1. P(P) = 8/20 = 0.4

2. P(G) = 12/20 = 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Number of green marbles G = 12

Number of purple marbles P = 8

Total T = 12+8 = 20

The probability that you choose a purple marble P(P) is;

P(P) = number of purple marbles/total number of marbles

P(P) = P/T = 8/20 = 0.4

P(P) = 0.4

The probability that you choose a Green marble P(G) is;

P(G) = number of Green marbles/total number of marbles

P(G) = G/T = 12/20 = 0.6

P(G) = 0.6

A soup kitchen makes 15 gallons of soup each day a quarter of the soup is served and the rest is saved for the next day , what i
Sophie [7]

Number of ounces left is 1120

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find number of ounces left after each day.

Given total soup prepared each day = 15 gallons

Amount served each day = 1/4 of 15 = 15/4 gallons

Amount left after each day = 15 - 15/4 = 60 - 15/4 = 35/4 gallons

  • Step 2: Convert gallons into ounces. 1 gallon = 128 ounces

35/4 gallons = 35/4 × 128 = 1120 ounces
