7 minutes= 2 minutes x 3.5

The squirrel burrowed 6 holes in 2 minutes.
To find how many holes the squirrel burrows in 7 minutes we multiply 6 x 3.5= 21.

Alternate method:

If the squirrel burrows 6 holes in 2 minutes that means he has burrowed 3 holes in 1 minute.
Multiply the number of holes burrowed in 1 minute by 7 to get 21.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Edible fruit amount is 4.8 ounce to 5.6 ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as

The seed and skin of avocados is about 30%-40%

And the weight of avocados is 8 ounce

So, the weight of seed and skin is about 30% of 8 to 40% of 8

i.e 2.4 ounce to 3.2 ounce

Then the edible fruit is about 60% to 70%

i.e 60% of 8 to 70% of 8

Thus edible fruit of avocados = 4.8 ounce to 5.6 ounce Answer

Find the coordinates of the intersection of the medians of △ ????BC given ????(2, 4), ????(−4, 0), and ????(3, −1).

Damm [24]

Answer:

The coordinates of the intersection of the medians of △ABC is (1/3, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the vertices of △ABC are A(2, 4), B(−4, 0), and C(3, −1).

Intersection of the medians of a triangle is known as centroid.

Formula for centroid of a triangle is

$Centroid=(\dfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\dfrac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3})$

Using the above formula the centroid of △ABC is

$Centroid=(\dfrac{2-4+3}{3},\dfrac{4+0-1}{3})$

$Centroid=(\dfrac{1}{3},\dfrac{3}{3})$

$Centroid=(\dfrac{1}{3},1)$

Therefore the coordinates of the intersection of the medians of △ABC is (1/3, 1).
