Answer: 100 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since 1 ton = 2,000 lbs

We have to divide 10lbs by 2000 to convert the lbs in tons.

1t/2000lb = xt / 10lb

10 /2000=0.005

0.005 ton = 10 lbs (1 bag)

Each box has 4 bags

0.005 ton x 4 = 0.02 ton

So each box weights 0.02 ton

Since we need 2 tons.

Using proportions:

0.02t/1 box= 2 t / x boxes

x = 2 / (0.02/1)

x = 100 boxes  

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Answer:

the answer is 918

Step-by-step explanation:

first you would see how many times 257 could go into 28 which is about 9 so you could do 9 times 28 which is 257-252 which is 5. Then bring the 7 down to make 57. Then repeat the first step with every time and you should get 918. (57 goes into 28 once)

ratelena [41]
If George's bike weighs 15 pounds, then we can say that because Obed's bike is 3 pounds heavier than George's, Obed's bike weighs 18 pounds. If Obed's bike weighs 18 pounds, then we can say that because Elsa's bike is twice as heavy as Obed's, Elsa's bike weighs 9 pounds.

Let pn, n = 0,1,2,..., be the probability that an automobile policyholder will file for n claims in a five-year period. the actu
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>P(1 claim) = p/4
P(2 claims) = (p/4)/4 = p/16

You should see that the distribution follows a geometric series with common ratio 1/4.
Sum geometric = (first term) / (1 - common ratio) = p/(1 - 1/4) = 4p/3

But the sum of all the probabilites must equal 1 ----> 4p/3 = 1 ----> p = 3/4

P(2 or more claims) = 1 - P(0 claims) - P(1 claim) = 1 - 3/4 - 3/16 = 1/16</span>

Mrs. Reid is going on a trip. She has 9 book that she hasn't ready yet, but she wants to bring only 3 on the trip.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
The way you work this out is by thinking about the odds of each singular event, then finding the overall odds based on the individual odds.

The number of different books Mrs. Reid can choose is 9, so the first number is 9.

Mrs. Reid has picked one book so far, so now she has (1 - 9) = 8 books to choose from.
The of different books Mrs. Reid can choose now is 8, so your second number is 8.

Mrs. Reid has picked 2 book thus far, so now there are (2 - 9) = 7 books to choose from.
The of different books Mrs. Reid can choose now is 7, so your second number is 7.

To get the total number of different choices, multiply all the singular events together:

7*8*9=504\ different\ ways\ to\ bring\ 3\ books
