Answer:

9:8

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the word problem, Joe has 6 frogs, 8 hamsters, 9 goldfish, and 3 snakes.

The question is asking the ratio of Joe's frogs AND snakes TO hamsters.

To find out the ratio of frogs and snakes, add how many frogs there are to how many snakes there are.

6 + 3 = 9.

The last part of the equation should be obvious.

There are 8 hamsters.

Therefore, the ratio of Joe's frogs and snakes to hamsters is 9:8.

Answer:

d. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation is 4.5

Margin error for the problem is 2 hours

Probability 95%, that means that the siginficance level α is 1 – p

α = 1 – 0.95 = 0.05

margin of error (ME) can be defined as follows

ME = Z(α/2) * standard deviation/ √n

Where n is the sample size

Z(0.05/2) = Z(0.025)

Using a z table Z = 1.96

Now, replacing in the equation and find n

2 = 1.96 * 4.5/ √n

2 = 8.82/√n

√n = 8.82/2

√n = 4.41

n = 4.41^2

n = 19.44 ≈ 20

klio [65]

Answer:

The rate is $\frac{2}{5}$ degree per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A scientist conducted an experiment. Due to chemical reaction, the temperature of a compound rose $\frac{1}{10}$ degree every $\frac{1}{4}$ hour for a limited time.

To find : What was the rate, in degrees per hour that the temperature of the compound rose ?

Solution :

In every $\frac{1}{4}$ hour the temperature of a compound rose $\frac{1}{10}$ degree

To get the rate, in degrees per hour,

In every 1 hour the temperature of a compound rose is

$r=\dfrac{\frac{1}{10}}{\frac{1}{4}}$ degree

$r=\dfrac{4}{10}$ degree/hr

$r=\dfrac{2}{5}$ degree/hr

Therefore, the rate is $\frac{2}{5}$ degree per hour.
