Answer:

Weight = 6.3 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total = 8.4kg

Pears = \frac{1}{4}

Required

Determine the weight of apples

First, we calculate the fraction of apple.

Apple = 1 - Pears

Apple = 1 - \frac{1}{4}

Take LCM

Apple = \frac{4-1}{4}

Apple = \frac{3}{4}

The weight is then calculated as:

Weight = \frac{3}{4} * Total

Weight = \frac{3}{4} * 8.4kg

Weight = \frac{3* 8.4kg}{4}

Weight = \frac{25.2kg}{4}

Weight = 6.3 kg

<em>Hence, the apples weigh 6.4kg</em>

At a store there are 5 vases each vase has the same number of flowers 16 flowers are sold now there are 24 flowers left how many
Drupady [299]
Let f=number of flowers in a vase, then:

5f-16=24  add 16 to both sides

5f=40  divide both sides by 5

f=8 

So there were 8 flowers per vase in the beginning.

19. Which of the following
Andrew [12]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  b. angle K is acute

Step-by-step explanation:

We're often told not to draw any conclusions from the appearance of a figure in a geometry problem. Here, angle K appears to be somewhat less than 90°, so angle K is acute.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

This choice of answer is confirmed by the fact that the other two (visible) choices say the same thing. If one of them is correct, so is the other one. Hence they must both be incorrect. (An obtuse angle is more than 90°.)

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

8 cups of blue and 12 cups of red

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine 1/3 c of blue + 1/2 c of red = 5/6 c of purple.

(5/6)x = 20

 

x = (6/5)20 = 24

this is applied to each of the above measurements to show that you need 8 c of blue + 12 c of red.
