Answer: The answer to the question "What portion of the whole snack does each friend get?" is: Tasha 1/2 of the snack, her friends 1/4 of the snack each one.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete snack is 1. If you say that Tasha eats half of the snack that means that you must divide 1 in 2 parts. Then, that gives us 1/2 left.

Tasha gives 1/2 of the snack to her 2 friends and shares it equally. That means that again you must divide it in 2 parts. That gives us:

1/2 ÷ 2 = 4

When you divide a fraction (1/2) into an entire number (2) you must take into account that there is a 1 below the entire number (2). Having that in mind, the next step is to multiply in cross: the 1 above the 2 (1/2) will multiply the 1 below the 2 (2/1), And the 2 below the 1 (1/2) will multiply the 2 above the 1 (2/1). The result of the first multiplication will be the number above the fraction that means 1, and the result of the second multiplication will be the number below the fraction that means 4. The final result is 1/4 (look in the picture attached).

To conclude, each of her friends received 1/4 of the snack.

Attached you may find a picture of the parts of the snack that each friend received.

JKL is similar to PQR

so they want PR 

JKL is similar to PQR

So PR is similar to JL

And they also give us the sides KL and QR

JKL is similar to PQR

Both of those sides are similar, so we can form a proportion.

\sf { \frac{PR}{JL} =  \frac{QR}{KL} }

Plug in the numbers:

\sf { \frac{PR}{6} = \frac{15}{9} }

Cross multiply:

\sf{ PR \times 9 = 6 \times 15}

Isolate PR

\sf{ PR = \frac{6 \times 15}{9}}

Simplify it

\sf{ PR = 10}

So your final answer is

\boxed{\bf{10 centimeters}}

On a map, each inch represents 20 miles. If two cities are 5 inches apart on the map, how far apart are the two cities in miles?
loris [4]

If 1 inch represents 20 miles, then 5 inches should represent <em>5 times as many miles</em>, or 20 x 5 = 100 miles.

A new soft drink is being market tested. A sample of 400 individuals participated in the taste test and 80 indicated they like t
romanna [79]

Answer: p-value of the test  = 0.167

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

sample size n = 400

sample success X = 80

confidence = 95%

significance level = 1 - (95/100) = 0.05

This is the left tailed test .

The null and alternative hypothesis is

H₀ : p = 0.22

Hₐ : p < 0.22

P = x/n = 80/400 = 0.2

Standard deviation of proportion α = √{  (p ( 1 - p ) / n }

α = √ { ( 0.22 ( 1 - 0.22 ) / 400 }

α = √ { 0.1716 / 400 }

α = √0.000429

α = 0.0207

Test statistic

z = (p - p₀) / α

z = ( 0.2 - 0.22 ) / 0.0207

z = - 0.02 / 0.0207

z = - 0.9661

fail to reject null hypothesis.

P-value Approach

P-value = 0.167

As P-value >= 0.05, fail to reject null hypothesis.

Since test is left tailed so p-value of the test is 0.167. Since p-value is greater than 0.05 so we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

​ y=−8x−3 x+y=7 ​ Is (3,4)(3,4)left parenthesis, 3, comma, 4, right parenthesis a solution of the system? Choose 1 answer: Choos
kirill [66]

Given:

The system of equation is

y=-8x-3

x+y=7

To find:

Whether (3,4) is a solution of the given system or not.

Solution:

We have,

y=-8x-3          ...(i)

x+y=7            ...(ii)

Putting the value of y in (ii) from (i), we get

x+(-8x-3)=7

x-8x-3=7

-7x=7+3

-7x=10

Divide both sides by -7.

x=\dfrac{10}{-7}

x=-\dfrac{10}{7}

Putting x=-\dfrac{10}{7} in (i), we get

y=-8\times (\dfrac{-10}{7})-3

y=\dfrac{80}{7}-3

y=\dfrac{80-21}{7}

y=\dfrac{59}{7}

So, the only solution of the given system is \left(-\dfrac{10}{7},\dfrac{59}{7}\right).

Hence, (3,4) cannot be a solution of given system, Hence the correct option is B.
