Answer: 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

100% - 40%

= 60% or 3/5 - first day

2/5 of 3/5 = 6/25 = 24% eaten

36% left - 2nd day

2/5 of 6/25 = 14.4% eaten

= 21.6 % left - 3rd day

2/5 of 21.6 = 8.64% eaten

= 12.96 % left - 4th day

2/5 of 12.96%  = 5.184 eaten

= 7.776% left - 5th day

2/5 of 7.776% = 3.1104% eaten

= 4.6656% left after the 6th day

rounded off to 5% after the 6th day

Kimberly makes a conjecture that the sum of two odd integers is always an even integer. Which choice is the best proof of her co
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

third choice : Let 2a + 1 be one odd number, and let 2b + 1 be the other odd number. (2a + 1) + (2b + 1) = 2a + 2b + 2 = 2(a + b + 1). Because 2(a + b + 1) is evenly divisible by 2, it is an even number.

You’re welcome ;)

To make pancakes you add 4 ounces of water to 6 ounces of mix./
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

you would add 6 ounces of water to 9 ounces of mix

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the ratio of water to pancake mix, divide 4/4 and 6/4 to find the unit ratio of water to each 1 ounce of mix.

6/4 = 0.66...

0.66... ounces of water is used per 1 ounce of mix.

0.66... * 9 = 6

this means that 9 ounces of mix would use 6 ounces of water.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

0.57142

Step-by-step explanation:

A normal random variable with mean and standard deviation both equal to 10 degrees Celsius. What is the probability that the temperature at a randomly chosen time will be less than or equal to 59 degrees Fahrenheit?

We are told that the Mean and Standard deviation = 10°C

We convert to Fahrenheit

(10°C × 9/5) + 32 = 50°F

Hence, we solve using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = 59 °F

μ is the population mean = 50 °F

σ is the population standard deviation = 50 °F

z = 59 - 50/50

z = 0.18

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x ≤59) = 0.57142

The probability that the temperature at a randomly chosen time will be less than or equal to 59 degrees Fahrenheit

is 0.57142

What would 0.1x = 0.2 + 2 look like on a graph?
Monica [59]
It's a vertical line, parallel to the y-axis, crossing the x-axis at the point x=22. No matter what number you choose for 'y', you'll always find that x=22 there.
