Answer:

72 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

For concreatting a tower cement, sand, stones are in the ratio 1:2:4 For 144kg sand.. What amount of cement is required?

We are given the ratio

cement: sand:stones

= 1:2:4

The sum of proportion =

1 + 2 + 4 = 7

We are given the kg of sand = 144kg

Step 1

We find the total kg of cement, sand and stones = x

Using the proportion of sand,

2/7 of x = 144kg

2/7 × x = 144kg

2x/7 = 144kg

Cross Multiply

2x = 7 × 144kg

x = 7 × 144kg/2

x = 504kg

Therefore the total kg of cement, sand and stone = 504kg

Step 2

The amount of cement required is calculated as:

1/7 × 504 kg = 72 kg

Therefore, 72kg of cement is required.

Answer:

12. -11

13. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

12. First recall the order of operations (BEDMAS): Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction

For question 12 there is a division and its priority is before other operations in the equation so you must divide 16/-2 first which gives you -8.

From there because addition and subtraction is on the same level of order, you would do the question straight as it is shown (but replace 16/-2 with -8.

Your new equation is -10-8+7 = -11

13. follow the same as above using BEDMAS. It may help to look at it with additional brackets: ((-68)/(-4)) + ((5 x (-3))

  • keep in mind there’s an addition between the two

Division and multiplication is on the same level in BEDMAS so first divide -68/-4 = 17

Second multiply 5 x -3 = -15

Now you can combine the two answers using addition: 17 + (-15) = 2

4 1/12 + 1 3/4 = ?<br> Fractions please help I'm tired.
AfilCa [17]

Lets just convert them into improper fractions.

1) 4 and 1/12 = 49/12.

1 and 3/4 = 7/4.

2) 7/4 = 21/12

3) 21/12 + 49/12 = 70/12

Back to mixed fractions!

70/12 = 5 and 10/12 = 5 and 5/6

=5 5/6

There is another method if you want to know. You can simply just do 4 + 1 = 5. Then do 1/12 + 3/4 = 10/12 = 5/6. So it goes to 5 5/6. Your choice which ever you find more eas.

The number of throws that the player make X follows binomial distribution.

The probability that the player makes x throws out of eleven throws is

P(X=x)=C(x,11)0.5^x(0.5)^{11-x}=C(x,11)0.5^{11}

The probability that the player makes at most nine out of eleven free throws

is

\sum_{x=0}^9C(x,11)0.5^{11}=1-\sum_{x=10}^{11}C(x,11)0.5^{11}\\ =1-C(10,11)0.5^{11}-C(11,11)0.5^{11}=1-\frac{12}{2^{11}} \\ =1-\frac{3}{512} =\frac{509}{512}

Correct choice is (B).
