Answer:

C 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this probability, we need to add up all the fruits in the bowl (17 + 8 +23 = 48)  and then isolate the number of fruits we are trying to spoon out (8). Putting this into the probability fraction, this becomes 8/48 or 1/6. So, Lanessa has a 1/6th chance of spooning out a cherry.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 17+8+23=48 possible outcomes for her to pick a fruit. Out of those, 8 are cherries, meaning that the probability of her randomly picking one is 8/48=1/6. Hope this helps!

Answer:

≈ 30.63 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded area is calculated by subtracting the area of the inner circle from the area of the outer circle.

outer circle has radius = 8 ÷ 2 = 4 and inner circle has radius = 5 ÷ 2 = 2.5

shaded area = πr₁² - πr₂² (r₁ is outer and r₂ is inner )

A = π (4² - 2.5²)

   = π(16 - 6.25) = 9.75π ≈ 30.63 cm²

PLEASE HELP :'))
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

D) 54 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Centroid Theorem to solve this problem, which states that the centroid of a triangle is \frac{2}{3} of the distance from each of the triangle's vertices to the midpoint of the opposite side.

Therefore, R is \frac{2}{3} of the distance from U to V, since the latter is the midpoint of the side opposite to U. We know this because R belongs to UV, so R must be QS's midpoint due to the fact that by definition, the centroid of a triangle is the intersection of a triangle's three medians (segments which connect a vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the side opposite to it).

We can then write the following equation:

VR=\frac{1}{3} UV

Substituting VR = 18 into the equation gives us:

18=\frac{1}{3} UV

Solving for UV, we get:

18=\frac{1}{3} UV

3 *18=3*\frac{1}{3}UV (Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to get rid of UV's coefficient)

54=UV (Simplify)

UV=54 (Symmetric Property of Equality)

Therefore, the answer is D. Hope this helps!

G(x)=−2(x+1)(x+7) find the zeros
Makovka662 [10]
When finding zeros, the function has to equal zero. In other words, G(x) = 0.

For three multiplied parts to equal to zero, at least one has to be zero. -2 ≠ 0, but (x+1) or (x+7) can.

So you can equate each of those to zero and find out what the zeros are.

x+1=0
x=-1

x+7=0
x=-7

Thus the answer
x = -1 or -7
