Answer:

234

Step-by-step explanation:

So what we know is that

5x+9x= students

This equation is saying that for every 5 boys there are 9 girls

we can then plug in 364 for the number of students and add like terms

This means that 14x=364

this means that x=26

This means that there are 26 sets of 5 boys and 9 girls

this means that there are

130 boys

234 girls

kogti [31]
Hello.

To get the volume 5184 in3 you can use the dimension 18in x 24in x 12in.

First, you should draw a picture of your shipping container. It is a rectangular prism that is 5 by 12 by 4.

Next, let's look at the boxes of apples that will go into the box. The volume has to be 5184 in^3. If we divide it by 12 and 12, the answer is 3. Therefore, we could make a box that is 1 foot by 1 foot by 3 feet. 

Those boxes would be stack on the base without any left over space. Now, just figure out how many would go on the next rows. They would be able to stand up and down.

Have a nice day.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

A) ≈ 6.93

B) ≈ 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

Formula : a² + b² = c²

2.4² + 6.5² = c²

5.76 + 42.25 = c²

c = √48.01

c ≈ 6.93

B)

Formula = c² - a² = b²

1/3² - 1/4² = b²

1/9 - 1/16 = b²

b = √7/144

b ≈ 0.02

I would first convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction. To put it lightly, the reciprocal is the numerator and denominator are switched. For this instance it would be 4/37.

The odds of winning a rifle are 1:9 the probability of winning a carnival game is 0.15 does the raffle or the carnival game give
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Hence the carnival game gives you better chance of winning.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the event of win be given by 1/10 in the game of rifle then the event of loose is given by 9/10

the

Odds in favor of a game are given by  = P(Event)/ 1- P(Event)

Odds in favor of winning a rifle are given by = 1/10/ 1- 1/10

                                                                         =1/10/9/10

                                                                          =1/9

                                                                             = 0.111

The probability of winning aa rifle game is 0.111

The probability of winning the carnival game is 0.15

Comparing the two probabilities   0.111:0.15

The probability of  winning carnival game is greater than winning a rifle game

0.15>0.11

Hence the carnival game gives you better chance of winning.

Papessa [141]
It is B, the coefficient of the x-term.  When you multiply this out, you get x*x+x*q+x*p+p*q, or x^2+x(p+q)+p*q
Notice how the x term is multiplied by p+q.

Hope this helps!
