Answer:

<u>The distribution of each one of the 14 planters is:</u>

<u>4 pansies </u>

<u>3 tulips </u>

<u>2 marigolds </u>

<u>All of the flowers were used by Ramona.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's find the number of planters and how many of each flower type will be in each planter, using the Hamilton method

Number of planters = 14

We calculate this using Greatest Common Divisor between 56, 42 and 28.

Total number of flowers = 126 ( 56 pansies, 42 tulips, and 28 marigolds)

Standard divisor = 14 (Number of planters)

Now, we can apportion the flowers in in Standard quotas, this way:

56 pansies = 56/14 = 4

42 tulips = 42/14 = 3

28 marigolds = 28/14 = 2

Like there are not decimals, we can use this quotas as the number of flowers distributed in each planter.

<u>The distribution of each one of the 14 planters is:</u>

<u>4 pansies </u>

<u>3 tulips </u>

<u>2 marigolds </u>

<u>All of the flowers were used by Ramona.</u>

ASAP PLZ HELP 1 EASY QUESTION HELP :/
MrMuchimi
If 2 triangles are similar, the ratio of one side of the triangle to the corresponding side of the other is always same for all 3 sides.
We can make use of this rule to calculate the length of sides.
From the image,
3 / 15 = 6 / x
Simplify,
1 / 5 = 6 / x
Use cross method to solve this.
5 x 6 = 1 x x
X = 30
Therefore the length of x is 30ft., A.

Answer:

  5.  x = 160; y = 20

  6.  h = 125°; g = i = 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are found on opposite sides of a point where lines cross. Each angle is formed from rays opposite those of the other angle. Vertical angles are congruent.

5. x° and 160° are vertical angles: x° = 160°

  y° and 20° are vertical angles: y° = 20°

__

6. h° and 125° are vertical angles: h° = 125°

The angles g° and 125° form a "linear pair" so total 180°.

  g° = 180° -125° = 55°

  g° and i° are vertical angles: g° = i° = 55°

Translate the phrase into an expression: 11 more than one third of a number
skelet666 [1.2K]
1/3x+11.
1/3 of a number can be shown as 1/3x, since the number is not identified.

We can represent 11 more as +11.
This, our expression is 1/3x+11

Hope this helps!
