(r is red, g is green and y is yellow)
r+g+y=33
r=3g
2y=r

substitution:
y=33-g-r
y=33-(1/3)2y+2y
y=33-8/3y
11/3y=33
y=33÷(11/3)
y=9

Solve for red and green:

r=2y
r=2×9
r=18

3g=r
3g=18
g=18/3
g=6

double check:
6+18+9=33

answer:
6 green apples, 9 yellow apples and 18 red apples.

5% of a number is 23
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

<h3>73.6</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Let the number be m</h3>

<h3>so, 5% × m = 23</h3>

<h3><u> </u><u> </u><u>5</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u> m = 23</h3><h3>100</h3>

<h3>m = <u> </u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>3</u><u> </u><u>×</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>0</u><u>0</u></h3><h3> 5</h3>

<h3><u>m</u><u> </u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u> </u><u>460</u></h3>

<h3>16% of that number </h3>

<h3><u>1</u><u>6</u><u> </u> × 460 = 73.6</h3><h3>100</h3>

A volcano in the approximate shape of a cone has a diameter of 16 km and a height of 1.95 km. Which estimate best approximates t
masha68 [24]
To find the approximate volume of the volcano, you will use the formula for finding the volume of a cone.

V = 1/3 x pi x r^2 x h
     1/3 x 3.14 x 8^2 x 1.95
V = 130.624

The approximate volume of the volcano is 131 cubic kilometers.

This probability distribution shows the typical distribution of pitches thrown to a batter in a given at bat in a baseball game.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

This probability distribution is shown below:

Pitch                   1            2        3          4         5

Frequency         15         20      40        15        10

Probability         0.15     0.2      0.4      0.15      0.1

The probability that the pitcher will throw fewer than 3 pitches to a batter = P(X < 3)

X  is the number of pitches thrown. Therefore:

P(X < 3) = P(X = 1) or P(X = 2)

The additive rule pf probability states that if two events X and Y are dependent events, the probability of X or Y occurring is the sum of their individual probability.

P(X < 3) = P(X = 1) or P(X = 2) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.15 + 0.2 = 0.35

The probability that the pitcher will throw fewer than 3 pitches to a batter = 0.35
