Answer: the weight of each bags are 1.85kg, 1.85kg and 3.05 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Total weight of the three bags is

6 3/4 kg. Converting to decimal, it becomes 6.75 kg.

Two of them have the same weight. Let x represent the bags of equal weight. Their total weight would be 2x. The third bag is heavier than each of the bags of equal weight by 1 1/5 kg. Converting to decimal, it becomes 1.2kg. It means that the weight of the third bag would be

x + 1.2

Therefore, for the three bags,

2x + x + 1.2 = 6.75

3x = 6.75 - 1.2 = 5.55

x = 5.55/3 = 1.85

Weight of the third bag is

1.85 + 1.2 = 3.05kg

What is the slope intercept from of the equation of the line that that passes through the points (-3, 2) and (1, 5)
viva [34]

The slope-intercept form of a line:

y=mx+b\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\to slope\\\\b\to y-intercept

We have:

(-3,\ 2)\to x_1=-3,\ y_1=2\\(1,\ 5)\to x_2=1,\ y_2=5

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{5-2}{1-(-3)}=\dfrac{3}{4}

y=\dfrac{3}{4}x+b

Put the values of coordinates of the point (1, 5) to the equation of a line:

5=\dfrac{3}{4}(1)+b\\\\5=\dfrac{3}{4}+b\qquad|-\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\b=4\dfrac{1}{4}

Answer: y=\dfrac{3}{4}x+4\dfrac{1}{4}

In the wheel of woohoo game I'm taking a chance on a spinner with 20 outcomes if it lands on an even number I'll win a prize How
Aloiza [94]

Answer:  The chance here to win is 50%.


Step-by-step explanation:   You are taking a chance on a spinner with 20 outcomes. So, we will be considering natural numbers from 1 to 20.

And also, you will a prize if you land on an even number, so we will calculate the probability of getting an even number.

From 1 to 20, there are 10 odd numbers and 10 even numbers out of total 20 numbers.

Let us define the following events -

A = event of getting an even number

and

B = event of getting an odd number.

So, n(A) = 10  and  n(B) = 10.

So, the probability of getting an even number is given by

p(A)=\dfrac{n(A)}{n(A)+n(B)}=\dfrac{10}{10+10}=\dfrac{10}{20}=0.5=50\%.

Thus, the required chance of winning a prize is 50%.
