2 pears cost as much as 3 apples.if the total cost of 2 pears and 3 apples is $2,what is the cost of 12 apples?

1 answer:

5 0

The cost of 12 apples is $<span>4</span>

Here is how I got my answer:

2 pears = 3 apples

The cost of 2 pears AND 3 apples. we know three apples is equal to another 2 pears so basically its 4 pears are 2 dollars. Or 6 apples are 2 dollars.

using this information we can conclude that
Every 3 apples is a dollar

so we divide 3 by 12

4, so our answer is $4.

Line segment AB is reflected across the y–axis to form line segment CD. Then, line segment CD is rotated 90° clockwise about the

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The coordinates of EF are E(5,-4) and F(1,-4).

The line segment EF is in QIV

Step-by-step explanation:

The line segment AB has vertices at: A(-4,5) and B(-4,1).

We apply the rule $(x,y)\to (-x,y)$ to reflect AB in the y-axis to obtain CD.

$\implies A(-4,5)\to C(4,5)$

$\implies B(-4,1)\to D(4,1)$

We apply the rule $(x,y)\to (y,-x)$ to rotate CD 90 degrees clockwise about the origin to obtain EF.

$\implies C(4,5)\to E(5,-4)$

$\implies D(4,1)\to F(1,-4)$

The coordinates of EF are E(5,-4) and F(1,-4).

Three people are running for president of a class. The results of a poll indicate that the first candidate has an estimated 37%

lianna [129]

Answer:

0.19

Step-by-step explanation:

The are three candidate running for president and we know that probability of winning for first candidate and the probability of winning for second candidate and we have to find the probability of winning for third candidate

P(C1)=0.37

P(C2)=0.44

P(C3)=?

We know that sum of probabilities is always 1. So,

P(C1)+P(C2)+P(C3)=1

0.37+0.44+P(C3)=1

P(C3)=1-0.37-0.44

P(C3)=0.19

Thus, the probability of winning for third candidate is 0.19.
