Answer:
0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 15 pieces of the same size candy in the bag. Two are orange flavored, six cherry flavored. So the probability of picking an orange or a cherry flavored candy is 6/15+2/15=8/15≈0.5
Answer:
It will take Jade (2x + 5) minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us find the expression that represents the time Jade will take
∵ Binh takes x minutes to ride to his friend’s house
∴ The time Binh takes = x minutes
∵ 5 more means + 5
∵ Twice means × 2
∵ Jade takes 5 minutes more than twice as long as Binh to ride to their
friend’s house
→ Multiply the time Binh takes by 2 and add the product by 5
∵ Binh takes x minutes
∴ The time Jade takes = 2 × x + 5
∴ The time Jade takes = 2x + 5 minutes
∴ It will take Jade (2x + 5) minutes
Answer:
x =12
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
16^2 + x^2 = 20^2
256 +x^2 = 400
Subtract 256 from each side
256-256 +x^2 = 400-256
x^2 =144
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) =sqrt(144)
x = 12
Answer:
D. 30 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
Add all the given distances relative to the map together:
6.5 + 9.5 + 4 = 20
Multiply that by the scale to convert centimeters to kilometers:
20 x 1.5 = <u>30</u>
Your answer is 30 kilometers.
You also could have gotten the same answer by multiplying each number by the scale and then adding those together but that is slightly more work so the way I showed is more convenient.
