Answer:

8 apples for $10.24 as your getting more apples for almost the same price.

Step-by-step explanation:

$6.25 divided by 5 is $1.25 so that would be $1.25 per apple

$10.24 divided by 8 is $1.28 so that would be $1.28 per apple

Answer:

5 apples for 6.25 dollars is the better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

I set both deals as a ratio and cross multiplied them with X/1 to get how much each apple would cost per one apple. The first deal ended up being cheaper with 1.25 dollars per apple. The more expensive deal was 1.28 dollars per apple. Therefore 5 apples for 6.25 dollars is the better deal.

Determine which statement or statements are true. pushups = 4 ; sit-ups = 5 For every 4 pushups done there were 5 sit-ups done T

Anna35 [415]

True statements are:

Statement 1: For every 4 pushups done there were 5 sit-ups done

Statement 3: The ratio of sit-ups done to pushups done is 5:4

Statement 4: For every 5 sit-ups done there were 4 pushups done

Step-by-step explanation:

We have , push-ups = 4 ; sit-ups = 5 .

Statement 1: For every 4 pushups done there were 5 sit-ups done

Number of push-ups = 4 , sit-ups = 5 . So for every 4 pushups done there were 5 sit-ups done. True statement .

Statement 2: The ratio of pushups done to sit-ups done is 5:4

Number of push-ups = 4 , sit-ups = 5 . ratio of pushups to sit-ups done id 4:5 . false statement.

Statement 3: The ratio of sit-ups done to pushups done is 5:4

Number of push-ups = 4 , sit-ups = 5 . ratio of sit-ups done to pushups done is 5:4 . True statement .

Statement 4: For every 5 sit-ups done there were 4 pushups done

Number of push-ups = 4 , sit-ups = 5 . For every 5 sit-ups done there were 4 pushups done. True statement .

Find tenth term of the sequence (1,1,2,3,5,8,13)

garri49 [273]

This is what we call a Fibonacci sequence:

Notice that after the 1,1:

4th term =3 ==> 2+1

5th term =5 ==>3+2

6th term =8==> 5+3

7th term = 13==> 8+5

8th term =...........13+8 =21

9th term = ...........21+13 =34

10t=h term =........34+21 = 55

In short each number equal the sum of the 2 preceding number

How do i do this, i need to find an answer fast

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

y = 5√3

x = 10√3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given sides

Adjacent = 15

Opposite = y

Hypotenuse = x

Angle of depression = 30degree

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

tan theta = opp/adj

tan 30 = y/15

y = 15tan30

y = 15(1/√3)

y = 15√3/3

y = 5√3

Similarly

cos theta = adj/hyp

cos 30 = 15/x

x = 15/cos30

x = 15 /√3/2

x = 30/√3

x = 30√3/3

x = 10√3
