Answer: Half of a ton equals to 1,120 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

Since 80 stones make up half of a long ton, and each stone weight is 14 pounds, to obtain the number of pounds in half of a long ton we simply have to multiply the number of stones (80) by the weight of each stone (14)

Mathematically speaking:

<em>14 x 80 = 1,120 pounds </em>

Half of a ton equals to 1,120 pounds.

A building contractor buys 7070​% of his cement from supplier A and 3030​% from supplier B. A total of 9595​% of the bags from A
tatiyna

Title:

<h2>The answer is \frac{133}{174}.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the building contractor bought 1000 cement in total.

70% of 1000 = 700 cements were from A and (1000 - 700) = 300 cements were from B.

The number of undamaged bag from A was 95% of 700 = \frac{95}{100} \times700 = 7\times95 = 665 and the number of undamaged bags from B was 70% of 300 = \frac{70}{100} \times300 = 210.

Total undamaged bags were (665 + 210) = 870.

The probability that an undamaged bag is from A is \frac{665}{870} = \frac{133}{174}.

PLS HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST The average of eight consecutive odd integers is 48. What is the range of these eight numbers?
natima [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 7 + 2x - 5 + 2x - 3 + 2x - 1 + 2x + 3 + 2x + 5 + 2x + 7   Combine like terms

16x / 8  = 48

2x = 48

x = 24

The range is defined as the largest number - the smallest number

The range is between 2x - 7 and 2x + 7

x = 24

The smallest number is 48 - 7 = 41

The largest number is 48 + 7 = 55

The range = 55 - 41 = 14

Why was the 2 in front of the x needed? It was to make sure that I could create an odd number.

Why did I subtract an odd number? That was to make sure that I could create odd numbers.

Why did I start with 2x - 7 and end up 8 terms later at 2x + 7?

So the numbers would cancel and I'd only be left with x's.

if event A has a 30% chance of occurring and event B has a 45% chance of occurring, what is the probability that event A or even
Marysya12 [62]
The answer is 75%. This is because the 'or' rule for probability, the one we use when trying to determine P(A) or P(B), is to add the two probabilities. This means that we just need to add 30% and 45%, which gives us 75%.
I hope this helps!

M= 1/2
to find this you plug in the points into the the formula m=y2-y1 / x2-x1

m=3-6 / -4-2
m=-3 / -6
this simplifies to m=1/2
