Answer: 28.8 ounces of red paint

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of paint created the first time Mango mixed colors was:

= 24 + 16

= 40 ounces of purple color

For 40 ounces of purple, 16 ounces of red was needed. Proportion is therefore:

= 16/40

If one wants 72 ounces of purple therefore:

= Proportion of red used * 72 ounces

= 16/40 * 72

= 28.8 ounces of red paint

A triangle contains angles of 95° and 35°. what is the measure of the third angle of the triangle ?​
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up the two known angle measurements:

95+35=130

Subtract this number from 180°:

180-130=50

Write down your answer

95+35+25=180

*The three angles should add up to 180° for the triangle to exist*

I hope that helped

The infant mortality rate is defined as the number of infant deaths per 1,000 live births. This rate is often used as an indicato
Basile [38]

(a)

Q1, the first quartile, 25th percentile, is greater than or equal to 1/4 of the points.  It's in the first bar so we can estimate Q1=5.   In reality the bar includes values from 0 to 9 or 10  (not clear which) and has around 37% of the points so we might estimate Q1 a bit higher as it's 2/3 of the points, say Q1=7.

The median is bigger than half the points.  First bar is 37%, next is 22%, so its about halfway in the second bar, median=15

Third bar is 11%, so 70% so far.  Four bar is 5%, so we're at the right end of the fourth bar for Q3, the third quartile, 75th percentile, say Q3=40

b

When the data is heavily skewed left like it is here, the median tends to be lower than the mean.  The 5% of the data from 80 to 120 averages around 100 so adds 5 to the mean, and 8% of the data from the 60 to 80 adds another 5.6, 15% of the data from 40 to 60 adds about 7.5, plus the rest, so the mean is gonna be way bigger than the median of around 15.

Arc measure - Hello! Can you please help me and if you can explain the formula that would be awesome!
Ratling [72]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  88°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle MQP is called an "inscribed angle." Its vertex (Q) is on the circle, and its sides are chords of the circle. The ends of the sides intercept arc MP. The relationship between an inscribed angle and the intercepted arc is that <em>the measure of the arc is twice the measure of the angle</em>.

  arc MP = 2×∠MQP = 2×44°

  arc MP = 88°
