The answer is 2 plates and .50 glaze left over.

How did I get this?

First lets calculate how many bowls can we glaze. 
5 bowls * 7/8 of a pint = 4.375 pints
4.375 = how many glaze we will need to make 5 bowls.

6 pints - 4.375pints = 1.625 pints left over after we glaze the bowls. 

Now, we need to figure out how many plates we can make with 1.625 glaze.

P X 9/16 = 1.625
Multiply both sides by 16/9 to isolate the variable.
P = 1.625*16/9 
P = 2.88 plates

So, we can only glaze 2 plates. 

How many glaze is left over?
First, how many glaze did we have left over from the bowls? 1.625 glaze
Then, how many plates did we make? 2 at .5625 each = 1.125 glaze

1.625 - 1.125 = .50 glaze left over.

The answer is 2 plates and .50 glaze left over.

Which of the following show an element of the sample space for flipping 2 coins? (H= Heads, T= Tails) Check all that apply
Leni [432]

Answer:

All options

Step-by-step explanation:

If two coins are flipped, there are following possibilities

1. Both coins show heads

2. First coin shows heads and second shows tails

3. First coin shows tails and second shows heads

4. Both coins show tails

Let H denote heads and T denote tails

Then the sample space can be translated from the above events as:

Sample  Space for Flipping Two Coins = {HH, HT, TH, TT}

which means that all the options are correct ..

15. ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral in which
White raven [17]

Answer:

a) ∠ADB is 55°

b) ∠ABD is 45°

Step-by-step explanation:

a) In the cyclic quadrilateral ABCD, we have;

Segment AB = Segment BC

∠ABC = 70°

Therefore, ∠ADC = 180° - 70° = 110° (Opposite angles are supplementary)

∠ADC + ∠CDP = 180° (Sum of angles on a straight line)

∴ ∠CDP = 180° - ∠ADC

∠CDP = 180° - 110° = 70°

∠DCP = 180° - 70° - 30° = 80°, (Angle sum property)

Similar to ∠DCP = ∠DAB = 80° (Exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral)

∠CAB = ∠ACB = (180° - 70°)/2 = 55° (Base angles of isosceles triangle ΔABC)

∠ADB = ∠ACB = 55° (Inscribed angle of a circle subtended by the same chord)

∠ADB = 55°

b) ∠ABD = 180° - ∠DAB - ∠ADB

∴ ∠ABD = 180° - 55° - 80° = 45°

∠ABD = 45°
