Since the ratio of mother to daughter is 4:1, the weight of the mother and daughter together is five times the weight of the daughter.

In fact, if the daughter weights d pound, the mother weights 4d pounds, and the total weight is d+4d = 5d.

We know that this total is 185 pounds, so we have

5d = 185 \iff d = \dfrac{185}{5} = 37

So, the daughter weights 37 pounds.

A 6 sided number cube is tossed. what is the probability of rolling a 6 or an odd number?
Veronika [31]
For any probability the formula is P_{desired}=\frac{desired}{total}. In this case we have 4 desired outcomes (the odds, 1, 3 and 5, and also 6) out of 6 total sides, so our probability P_{oddor6} =\frac{odd or 6}{total sides}=\frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}.

Mutually exclusive means the events cant occur at the same time. In our case it is not possible to roll both a 6 and an odd number at the same time since 6 is even. Therefore the events ARE mutually exclusive. 

Combine the two parts and C is the correct answer.  <span />

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(2x+5)-x=5(x+1) +15

distribute

-4x-10-x=5x+5+15

add common terms

-5x-10=5x+20

move common terms to the same sides

-30=10x

divide

x=-3

The incline of a roller coaster is 2 times as long as its elevation, and the horizontal length of the roller coaster is 11 m mor
Gelneren [198K]
Let 
x-------> t<span>he horizontal length of the roller coaster
y------> </span>the elevation of the roller coaster
c------> t<span>he incline of a roller coaster
</span>
we know that
applying the Pythagoras theorem
c²=x²+y²-----> equation 1
c=2y-----> equation 2
x=11+y----> equation 3

substitute equation 2 and equation 3 in equation 1
[2y]²=(11+y)²+y²
4y²=11²+22y+y²+y²
2y²-22y-121=0

using a graph tool-----> to resolve the second order equation
see the attached figure

the solution is 
y=15.026 m

c=2*y-----> c=2*15.026----> c=30.052 m

the answer is
30.05 m
