Answer:

<em><u>4 toothpicks.</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Kiley had a piece of bamboo skewer that measured 14 3/5 inches long. She wanted to cut it into toothpicks that were each 3 1/5 inches long.

To find the number of toothpicks that Kiley can make from bamboo skewer, we need to divide the length of skewer by length of each toothpick.

Total number of toothpicks = 14 3/5 ÷ 3 1/5

First of all, we will convert our given mixed fractions into improper fractions as:

Total number of toothpicks = 73/5 ÷ 16/5

Dividing a fraction by another fraction is same as multiplying the 1st fraction by the reciprocal of 2nd fraction.

Total number of toothpicks = 73/5 x 5/16

Total number of toothpicks = 73/16

Total number of toothpicks = 4.5625

Therefore, Kiley can make 4 toothpicks.

hope this helps, can i get brainliest please?

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

B. The mean amount of CO_2 emitted by the new fuel is actually lower than 89 kg but they fall to conclude it is lower than 89 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

A Type II error is the failure to reject a false null hypothesis.

Given the null and alternate hypothesis of a fuel company which wants to test a new type of gasoline designed to have lower CO_2 emissions.:

H_0: \mu = 8.9 kg\\H_a: \mu < 8.9 kg \\\text{ (where \mu is the mean amount of CO_2 emitted by burning one gallon of this new gasoline)}

where \mu is the mean amount of CO_2 emitted by burning one gallon of this new gasoline.

If the null hypothesis is false, then:

H_a: \mu < 8.9 kg

A rejection of the alternate hypothesis above will be a Type II error.

Therefore:

The Type II error is: (B) The mean amount of CO_2  emitted by the new fuel is actually lower than 89 kg but they fall to conclude it is lower than 89 kg.

8 Graph the equation y = –20x + 500.
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to plot the y-intercept first so since we know that the y-intercept is 500 from the y=mx+b format, you have to plug in (0,500). Then, we use the slope or the m provided in the equation with is -20. This means you have to go down 20, and right 1 since it is -20/1 or 20 down and 1 run. then you just connect the dots to finish your line.

Solve for x.<br> A) - 9<br> C) -5<br> B) -11<br> D) 10
slavikrds [6]

Answer: D) 10

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>All angles in a triangle adds up to 180°</u>

60° + 50° + 7x = 180°

7x = 180° - 60° - 50° = 180°- 110° = 70°

x = (70 ÷ 7)° = 10°
