Answer:
1/12 or 0.0833...
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 36 different possible outcomes for rolling the number cubes. To get a sum of 4 you would need to roll a 1 and 3 (2 possibilities, each cube could roll a 1 or a 3) or a 2 and a 2 (1 possibility, each has to roll the same number). Since there is no 0 or negative numbers, these are your only possibilities. 3 out of 36 possibilities is also equivalent to a 1/12 chance.
Hope this helps
The answer is 4
So the ratio would be 12/4
Then u simplify into 4/1 ( I divided each number by 4)
Divide 4 by 12, which equals approximately 0.33333, then multiply that to 180, which gives us 60. So she sold 180 ears of corn for $60.
Answer:
Use 49 ounces of the 14% allow and 41 ounces of the 23% alloy.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each ounce of the 14% copper contains 0.14 ounce of pure copper.
Each ounce of the 23% copper contains 0.23 ounce of pure copper.
Each ounce of the 18.1% copper contains 0.181 ounce of pure copper.
Use x ounces of the 14% and y ounces of the 23% to make 90 ounces of 18.1% alloy.
x+y = 90
y = 90-x
0.14x + 0.23y = 0.181·90
0.14x + 0.23(90-x) = 16.29
0.14x + 20.7 - 0.23x = 16.29
-0.09x + 20.7 = 16.29
4.41 = 0.09x
x = 49
y = 90-x = 41
Use 49 ounces of the 14% allow and 41 ounces of the 23% alloy.
Answer:
y = x/4 + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for y:
20 - 4 y = -x
Hint: | Isolate terms with y to the left-hand side.
Subtract 20 from both sides:
-4 y = -x - 20
Hint: | Solve for y.
Divide both sides by -4:
Answer: y = x/4 + 5
