Which of the following numerical expressions may represent the probability of a simple event?

What is 15% of 60 show your work to prove your answer

Mila [183]

To convert a percentage to a decimal you move the decimal two places to the left. Therefore:

15.% becomes .15

You then multiply this decimal to the number you are trying to find the percentage of.

.15 × 60 = 9.

9 is 15% of 60.

En una pizzeria se hicieron 8 docenas de pizzas. La tercera parte se vendio en el local y las cinco octavas partes son para envi

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

32 pizzas

60 pizzas

1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Se hicieron 8 docenas de pizzas.

Una docena es 12, por lo tanto, el número de pizzas hechas fue:

8 * 12 = 96 pizzas

1/3 se vendieron en el local, esto significa que el número de pizzas vendidas en el local es:

1/3 * 96 = 32 pizzas

5/8 fueron para entrega a domicilio, por lo tanto, el número de pizzas vendidas en casa es:

5/8 * 96 = 60 pizzas

El número total de pizzas vendidas es:

32 + 60 = 92 pizzas

Esto significa que no se vendieron 4 pizzas. En forma de fracción:

4/96 = 1/24

Terms/Coefficients
Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

x - 2y = 12

5x + 3y = -44

Step 2: Rewrite Systems

x - 2y = 12

[Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply everything by -5: -5x + 10y = -60

Step 3: Redefine Systems

-5x + 10y = -60

5x + 3y = -44

Step 4: Solve for y

Elimination

Combine 2 equations: 13y = -104
[Division Property of Equality] Divide 13 on both sides: y = -8

Step 5: Solve for x

Define original equation: x - 2y = 12
Substitute in y: x - 2(-8) = 12
Multiply: x + 16 = 12
[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 16 on both sides: x = -4

At the science fair, Tanvi uses 8 fluid ounces of vinegar to make her volcano erupt. How many times can she make her volcano eru

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

4 times

Step-by-step explanation:

1 quart is equivalent to 32 fluid ounces.

If each eruption consumes 8 fluid ounces of vinegar. Assuming that the amount of vinegar required per eruption is constant, the number of times Tanvi can make her volcano erupt is:

$n=\frac{32}{8}\\n=4\ times$

Tanvi can make her volcano erupt 4 times with 1 quart of vinegar.
