Answer:

a) A = kB

b) 20

c) 9

Step-by-step explanation:

A is directly proportional to B when A = 12, B = 3

a) find a formula for A in terms of B

A ∝ B

A = kB

Where k is constant of proportionality

when A = 12, B = 3

12 = 3k

k = 12/3

k = 4

b) find the value of A when B = 5

A = kB

k = 4

A = 4 × 5

A = 20

c) find the value of B when A = 36

k = 4

A = kB

B = A/k

B = 36/4

B = 9

A compound experiment consists of tossing a coin, drawing a letter at random from the alphabet, and then tossing two coins. What
Artemon [7]
We should each take these probabilities first individually.
Probability of tails in a coin toss = 1/2
Probability of <span>drawing letter T from the alphabet = 1/26
Probability of 2 tails in 2 coin toss = 1/4
Sample space = {HH, TT, HT, TH}

Add these together since these events happen after another = 1/2 + 1/26 / + 1/4 = 41/52

The final probability is 41/52</span>

A summer camp is organizing a hike and needs to buy granola bars for the campers. The granola bars come in small boxes and large
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

The Answer is: There are 8 small boxes and 9 large boxes. See explanation below for variables and variable definitions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = small boxes. Let b = large boxes.

s + b = 17

You can solve for s:

s = 17 - b

You can solve for b:

b = 17 - s

10 times the number of small boxes plus 24 times the number of large boxes is equal to 296 granola bars.

10s + 24b = 296

Substitute:

10(17 - b) + 24b = 296

170 - 10b + 24b = 296

14b = 296 - 170

14b =  126

b = 126 / 14 = 9 large boxes

Find the number of small boxes, s:

s = 17 - b = 17 - 9 = 8 small boxes

There are 8 small boxes and 9 large boxes.

Proof:

10(8) + 24(9) = 296

80 + 216 = 296

296 = 296
