If 8 pigs can fit in a pen, how many pens are necessary to make sure 71 pigs are all in a pen?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ulleksa [173]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Each pen can only hold 8 pigs, and pens cannot be split up into fractions.

Divide. 71 / 8 = 8.875

There is no 7/8 of a pen, so you must round up.

8.875 → 9.

lesantik [10]

Categorical variables can assume values from a range of possible options, whereas quantitative variables can assume possibly infinitely many values from a certain number range.

So, the answer is "the colour of the bookshelf", because there can only be a limited number of possible colours for the bookshelf, whereas its width (no matter the unit measure) and height could be any number.

Which sequence of transformations could be used to map triangle MNO onto M"N"O"? T(–2, 4) ry-axis ry-axisT(–2, 4) T(2, –4) T(2,
katrin [286]

Answer:

(A)T(–2, 4) ry-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph showing triangles MNO and M"N"O" is attached below.

From the graph, the coordinates are:

  • M(5,-4),N(3,-2) and O(1,-3)
  • M"(-3,0), N"(-1,2) and O"(1,1)

When we <u>transform triangle MNO by (-2,4),</u> we obtain:

M'(3,0), N'(1,2) and O'(-1,1)

Next, we reflect M'N'O' the y-axis.

Note: When you reflect a point across the y-axis, the y-coordinate remains the same, but the x-coordinate is transformed into its opposite.

Therefore:

  • Reflection of  M'N'O' accross the y-axis gives: M"(-3,0), N"(-1,2) and O"(1,1).

Therefore, the sequence of transformations could be used to map triangle MNO onto M"N"O" is T(–2, 4) ry-axis.

The correct option is A.

If 3w - 5 = -27, what is the value of w?<br> A -32/3<br><br> B 3/32<br><br> C 22/-3<br><br> D 3/22
tiny-mole [99]
C 22/-3
You use the the equation to plug it in and c is the only fraction that plugs in and equals -27.

A game is played with the following rules. Two ordinary number cubes, each with six sides labeled 1 to 6, are rolled. After each
Marysya12 [62]
Answer: - 0.28


Explanation:

1) Expected value: is the weighted average of the values, being the probabilities the weight.

That is: ∑ of prbability of event i × value of event i.

In this case: (probability of getting 2 or 12) × (+6) + (probability of gettin 3 or 11) × (+2) + (probability of any other sum) × (-1).


2) Sample space:

Sum              Points awarded
    
1+ 1 = 2              +6

1 + 2 = 3             +2

1 + 3 = 4             -1

1 + 4 = 5             -1

1 + 5 = 6             -1

1 + 6 = 7             -1

2 + 1 = 3             +2

2 + 2 = 4             -1

2 + 3 = 5             -1

2 + 4 = 6             -1

2 + 5 = 7             -1

2 + 6 = 8             -1

3 + 1 = 4             -1

3 + 2 = 5             -1

3 + 3 = 6             -1

3 + 4 = 7             -1

3 + 5 = 8             -1

3 + 6 = 9             -1

4 + 1 = 5             -1

4 + 2 = 6             -1

4 + 3 = 7             -1

4 + 4 = 8            -1

4 + 5 = 9            -1

4 + 6 = 10          -1

5 + 1 = 6            -1

5 + 2 = 7            -1

5 + 3 = 8            -1

5 + 4 = 9            -1

5 + 5 = 10          -1

5 + 6 = 11          +2

6 + 1 = 7            -1

6 + 2 = 8            -1

6 + 3 = 9            -1

6 + 4 = 10          -1

6 + 5 = 11          +2

6 + 6 = 12          +6


2) Probabilities

From that, there is:
- 2/36 probabilities to earn + 6 points.
- 4/36 probabilites to earn + 2 points
- the rest, 30/36 probabilities to earn - 1 points


3) Expected value = (2/36)(+6) + (4/36) (+2) + (30/36) (-1) = - 0.28
