<h3>Answer:</h3>

96 necklaces

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

To find out how many necklaces Camilla can make, we need to see how many times the required number of beads "goes into" the available number of beads.

Silver: 8160/85 = 96

Black: 2880/30 = 96

Camilla has enough beads to make 96 necklaces.

_____

<em>Comment on this answer</em>

Obviously, if one of the quotients is smaller than the other, Camilla can only make as many necklaces as are supported by the constraining resource.

Even if she had 3000 black beads (way more than 2880), she could still only make 96 necklaces (for example) because she would run out of silver beads making that 96th necklace. (There would be 120 black beads left over in that scenario.)

A test taker gets 70 on 1st exam, 80 on 2nd exam, 2/3 of 4/5 of his 2nd exam on his 3rd test. If the professor gives 5 points ex
Serga [27]
<h3>Answer:  127</h3>

=================================================

Explanation:

The phrasing "2/3 of 4/5 of his 2nd exam on his 3rd test" is a bit clunky in my opinion. It seems more complicated than it has to be.

The student got 80 on the second exam. 4/5 of this is (4/5)*80 = 0.8*80 = 64. Then we take 2/3 of this to get (2/3)*64 = 42.667 approximately. If we assume only whole number scores are given, then this would round to 43.

Let x be the score on the fourth exam. Since 5 points of extra credit are given, the student actually got x+5 points on this exam.

So we have these scores

  • first exam = 70
  • second exam = 80
  • third exam = 43
  • fourth exam = x+5

Adding up these scores and dividing by 4 will get us the average

(sum of scores)/(number of scores) = average

(70+80+43+x+5)/4 = 80

(x+198)/4 = 80

x+198 = 4*80

x+198 = 320

x = 320 - 198

x = 122

So the student got a score of x+5 = 122+5 = 127 on the fourth exam.

An isosceles triangle has an angle that measures 116.6°. Which other angles could be in that isosceles triangle? Choose all that
katrin2010 [14]
D is wrong. It can't have 2 angles equal to or greater than 90.

2x + 116.6 = 180
2x = 180 - 116.6
2x = 63.4
x = 63.4/2
x = 31.7   Two of this size are the only possible answers.

SOMEONE HELP PLEASE <br> <br> WILL PAY 15 points!!!
larisa [96]
This isn't as hard as it looks.
The ratio is 1 to 12.
You just have to multiply the model value by 12.

12 x 5.4 = 64.8 feet. Now, the answer has to be in yards, so divide by 3.
64.8 div 3 = 21.6 feet.

Use logarithms to solve the problem. Find the interest rate needed for an investment of $5800 to double in 5 years if interest i
Semmy [17]

Answer:

14.86%

Step-by-step explanation:

The principal = $5800

Time = 5 years

Amount = $ 11600

From;

A= P(1 + r)^n

Substituting values;

11600=5800(1 + r)^5

Rate= (11600/5800)^1/5 - 1

Rate= 0.1486

Therefore

Rate= 14.86%
