Answer:

2:3 unless it wants it in total, then 220:330

Step-by-step explanation:

it gives you the answer with the fraction.  A ratio is basically saying with x:y for every x number of one thing there are y number of another.  In this case we know 2/5 will be green, so how many will be red?  3/5.  So for every 2 greens there are 3 reds.

Another way of looking at it is for the totals.  there are 550 total, so 2/5 of that is green.  2/5 of 550 is 220, while 3/5 is 330  so that means of the 550, the ratio is 220:330.  Kinda like simplifying fractions where 220/550 is the same thing as 2/5

A population of 400 beetles grows by 5% each week. How can the beetle population be determined after a number of weeks, w?
Helga [31]
For this case we have an equation of the form:
 f (w) = A * (b) ^ w
 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate
 w: number of weeks
 Substituting values we have:
 f (w) = 400 * (1.05) ^ w
 Answer:
 the beetle population can be determined after a number of weeks, w, with the following function:
 
f (w) = 400 * (1.05) ^ w

A restaurant offers a special pizza with any 4 toppings. If the restaurant has 15 topping from which to choose, how many differe
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer: 1,365 possible special pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first topping, there are 15 possibilities, for the second topping, there are 14 possibilities, for the third topping, there are 13 possibilities, and for the fourth topping, there are 12 possibilities. This is how you find the number of possible ways.

15 * 14 * 13 * 12 = 32,760

Now, you need to divide that by the number of toppings you are allowed to add each time you add a topping.

4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 24

32,760 / 24 = 1,365

There are 1,365 possible special pizzas

You’ve observed the following returns on Crash-n-Burn Computer’s stock over the past five years: 14 percent, –9 percent, 16 perc
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

a. 9%

b. 0.01445

c. 12.02%

Step-by-step explanation:

n = 5 years

Return rates = 14%, –9%, 16%, 21%, and 3%

a. Arithmetic average return

A= \frac{14-9+16+21+3}{5} \\A=9.00

b. Historical variance (to 5 decimal places)

V= \frac{\sum (X_i-A)^2}{n-1} \\V= \frac{(0.14-0.09)^2+(-0.09-0.09)^2+(0.16-0.09)^2(0.21-0.09)^2(0.03-0.09)^2}{5-1}\\ V=0.01445

c. Standard deviation.

s = \sqrt{V} \\s= \sqrt{0.01445}\\s=0.1202 = 12.02\%
