Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi Millie.
First we can realize that the number of cubes of each type does not matter, only the ratios between them. We see that if there are x yellow cubes, there are 3x blue cubes. And therefore, there are 5*3x green cubes, or 15x green cubes. This means that the cubes are in a 1:3:15 ratio, or that for every 1 yellow cube, there are 3 blue and 15 green cubes.
Now we can find the probability of picking a yellow cube. Since there are 18 non-yellow cubes for every yellow cube, this means that there is a 1/19 possibility of picking a yellow cube.
Answer: 75%
Step-by-step explanation: So 15/20 simplified is 3/4 and 3 divided by 4 equals 0.75. To convert a decimal to a percentage, you multiply 0.75 by 100 to get 75%.
Answer:
The second number ($1,541.02) is greater
Step-by-step explanation:
In the 100s place of the second number is a 5 and in the first a 4
Even though they have the same 1000s number 500 is larger that 400
To calculate the remaining caffeine, we use the radioactive decay formula which is expressed as An = Aoe^-kt where An is the amount left after t time, Ao is the initial amount and k is a constant we can calculate from the half-life information. We do as follows:
at half-life,
ln 1/2 = -k(6)
k = 0.12/hr
An = 80e^-0.12(14)
An = 15.87 mg
Answer: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
1. multiply both sides by -6 so the -6 on the right side could cancel out and the left side would be -6: 1= a-13/-6 ==> -6=a-13
2. add both sides by 13 so -13 on the right side could cancel out and the left side would be -6+13: -6=a-13 ==> -6+13=a-13+13
3. you know -6+13 equals 7 right? so the answer is a=7
