Alex73 [517]

Answer:

24 purple jelly beans

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that;

Lucas had a mix of red and purple jelly beans. There were 2 red jelly beans for every 3 purple jelly beans.

The results in a ratio

2:3

Where 2 represented red jelly beans

3 represented purple jelly beans

Total number of jelly beans = 40 jelly beans.

The number of purple jelly beans that we have =

3/( 2 + 3) × 40

= 3/5 × 40

= 3 × 8

= 24.

Hence, there are 24 purple jelly beans in the bag.

In a contest to guess the number of jelly beans in a jar, Alice guessed 25;Betty, 18;Clare,23;Dotty,19;Edith,24;and Fran,17. Two

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

<em>There are 21 jelly beans in the jar.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of jelly beans in the jar is $x$

Two were off by 2, two were off by 3, two were off by 4. That means, the six guessed number will be: $(x+2), (x-2), (x+3), (x-3), (x+4), (x-4)$

Given that, Alice guessed 25; Betty, 18; Clare, 23; Dotty, 19; Edith, 24; and Fran, 17.

So, the sum of all six guessed number will be: $25+18+23+19+24+17=126$

Thus, the equation will be..........

$(x+2)+(x-2)+(x+3)+(x-3)+(x+4)+(x-4)= 126\\ \\ 6x= 126\\ \\ x=\frac{126}{6}=21$

So, the number of jelly beans in the jar is 21.

Find (f+g)(x).

kaheart [24]

Answer:

(f+g)(x) = x^3 - 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find (f+g)(x) by adding together f(x) = -3x + 2 and g(x) = x^3:

(f+g)(x) = -3x + 2 + x^3, or, in standard form,

(f+g)(x) = x^3 - 3x + 2
