Answer:

9 : 1.5

9 avocados

Step-by-step explanation:

the original is 3:0.5, this means for every 3 avocados you need 0.5 cups of minced onions.

the new proportion would be ?:1.5

meaning it is not 9:1.5, since 1.5 is 3 times more than 0.5, therefore 3 avocados would also have to be multiplied by 3. giving you 9 avocados.

Job A: $15.00 per hour (40 hours a week)​​Job B: $1,375 semi-monthly
blagie [28]

Notes before we start:

Semi-monthly means you get paid twice a week. We will find out the net pay in 2 weeks to see how much pays better.

Explanation:

Job A pays $15 an hour and whoever is working works 40 hours a week. We can multiply to find how much he/she earns in 2 weeks.

15 * 40 * 2 = $1,200

Job B pays $1,375 semi monthly which means that he/she got paid that much money in 2 weeks.

Answer:

Job B pays better.

Best of Luck!

3. WRITE Write a paragraph explaining the order of the steps that you would take to
polet [3.4K]
Upon first glance of an equation one must look first for parenthesis and solve the contents therein. Next one would need to identify and simplify exponents. Once these steps are well done one needs to look at the whole equation from left to right and solve for any multiplication or division problems and solve them in the order in which they appear. Next one must again look at the equation left to right and solve for any addition or subtraction in the order that they appear within the equation.

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

(Choice A)

Juanita gets a strike next game.'

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question is obviously incomplete.

Complete question is:

Juanita and Nina are bowling together. The probability of Juanita getting a strike next game is 24%. The probability of Nina getting a strike next game is 0.17. Which of these events is more likely?

(Choice A)

Juanita gets a strike next game.'

(Choice B)

Nina gets a strike next game.

(Choice C)

Neither. Both events are equally likely.

Answer:

Probability of Juanita : P(J)= 24% => 0.24

probability of Nina getting a strike next game: P(N) = 0.17

As you can see 0.24 > 0.17 ----> P(J)>P(N)

Thus it can be concluded that Juanita gets a strike next game is more likely.

so, choice A
