Answer:

a) 18 button a buttons are required to fill the bag.

b) 12 button b buttons are required to fill the bag.

c) There are 11 buttons of each type in the box containing 220 g of buttons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question

Two button types, button a weighing 8 grams and button b weighing 12 grams. The buttons are sold in bags. Each bag contains 144 grams of buttons.

a) How many of button a are needed to fill one bag?

b) How many of button b are needed to fill one bag?

c) A box of buttons contains the same number of each type of button it contains 220g of buttons. How many of each type of button are in the box.

Solution

a) A bag contains 144 grams of buttons.

Button a weighs 8 grams per button.

Total number of button a buttons required to fill up the bag = (144/8) = 18 button a buttons.

b) A bag contains 144 grams of buttons.

Button b weighs 12 grams per button.

Total number of button b buttons required to fill up the bag = (144/12) = 12 button a buttons.

c) A box of buttons weighing 220 g contains the same number of each type of button.

Let this number be n.

This means the Total weight of button a buttons in this box = 8n

total weight of button b buttons in this box = 12n

Sum total of the weight of the buttons = 8n + 12n = 20n

20n = 220

n = (220/20) = 11.

This means there are 11 buttons of each type in the box containing 220 g of buttons.

Hope this Helps!!!

Find the quotient of <br><br> -85^2-27n+76 / -17n-19
bagirrra123 [75]
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
5n-4

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>The given expression is:</u>
\frac{-85n^2-27n+76}{-17n-19}

<u>1- Take the negative as a common factor from both the numerator and the denominator. This will give us:</u>
\frac{-(85n^2+27n-76)}{-(17n+19)}

<u>2- Cancel out the negative sign (common factor) from the numerator and denominator. This will give us:</u>
\frac{(85n^2+27n-76)}{(17n+19)}

<u>3- Factor the numerator. This wil give:</u>
\frac{(5n-4)(17n+19)}{(17n+19)}

<u>4- Finally, cancel out the (17n+19) which common in both numerator and denominator. This will give us the final expression:</u>
5n-4

Hope this helps :)

Find the lateral surface area of a
balandron [24]

Answer:

15.1 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Lateral surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh

(where r is the radius and h is the height)

Given:

  • r = 1.2 mm
  • h = 2 mm

Substitute given values into the formula:

⇒ Lateral surface area = 2π(1.2)(2)

                                      = 4.8π

                                      = 15.1 mm²  (nearest tenth)

A TV report conducted a survey of 947 people in New York City and found that 35% of the population believe that the Yankees will
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

35\% represents the sample proportion of the population

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n  = 947

   The proportion of the population that believes that the Yankees will miss the playoffs this year is    k = 35\% = 0.35

From the question we are told the confidence level is  97%

   The lower limit of the confidence level is a = 28%

    The upper limit of the  b = 42%

Generally the sample proportion of this population is mathematically represented as

         \^ p = \frac{a+ b}{2}

=>      \^ p = \frac{28 + 42 }{2}

=>      \^ p = 35\%

Hence  35\% represents the sample proportion
