Answer: 25:15

Step-by-step explanation: in the ratio 5:3 the 5 is dogs and the 3 is cats you multiply the 5 (aka the dogs) by 5 to get 25 (the amount of dogs in the shelter) when you multiply 3 by 5 you get the amount of cats which is 15, a good way to remember is what you do to one side you have to do to the other. I hope this helps.

An auto maker estimates that the mean gas mileage of its sports utility vehicle is at least 20 miles per gallon. A random sample
Nady [450]

Answer:

Yes, we reject the auto maker's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ ≥ 20

H1 : μ < 20

Sample mean, xbar = 18 ;

Sample size, n = 36

Standard deviation, s = 5

At α = 0.01

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ s /sqrt(n)

(18 - 20) ÷ 5/sqrt(36)

-2 /0.8333333

= - 2.4

Pvalue from test statistic : Pvalue = 0.00819

Pvalue < α

0.00819 < 0.01

Hence, we reject the Null

Find the surface area of the composite figure. 6cm 5 cm 20cm 4cm 12cm 6cm​
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

644 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of the composite figure = surface area of the large rectangular prism + surface area of the small rectangular prism - 2(area of the surface of the small rectangular prism that joins the larger prism)

✔️Surface area of the large rectangular prism = 2(LW + LH + WH)

L = 6 cm

W = 5 cm

H = 20 cm

Surface area = 2(6*5 + 6*20 + 5*20)

= 500 cm²

✔️Surface area of the small rectangular prism = 2(LW + LH + WH)

L = 6 cm

W = 4 cm

H = 12 cm

Surface area = 2(6*4 + 6*12 + 4*12)

= 288 cm²

✔️area of the surface of the small rectangular prism that joins the larger prism = L*W

L = 12 cm

W = 6 cm

Area = 12*6

= 72 cm²

✅Surface area of the composite figure = 500 + 288 - 2(72)

= 644 cm²

Is 1/3 bigger than 1/2
daser333 [38]
No, 1/2 is bigger than 1/3 because:-

1/2 = 3/6
1/3 = 2/6

Compare

3/6 is larger, which means 1/2 is larger since they both equal each other. 

Answer: 1/2 is greater than 1/3

What is 12 1/2 as an improper fraction??
Olegator [25]
<span>To convert 12.5 to a fraction, consider the decimal portion of the number, .5. Since .5 is in the tenth spot of the decimal, it may be read as five-tenths, or 5/10. To reduce it to lowest terms, find the lowest common denominator, 5, and divide each by that number to get 1/2, or one-half. Thus, the number is now 12 1/2. To convert this mixed number into an entirely rational fraction, multiply the whole number, 12, by the denominator, 2, to get 24, then add the numerator, to end up with 25. This is the new numerator, so the rational number is 25/2. To check the work, divide 25 by 2 on a calculator or as a decimal equation, yielding 12.5.</span>
