Answer: 3/10

Step-by-step explanation: (1/5) gallon / (2/3) bin = x gallons / 1 bin cross-multiply

1/5 = (2/3)x multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2

(3/2) (1/5) = x = 3/10 gallons fills the entire bin

Look at it this way......each 1/10 of a gallon fills 1/3 of the bin......so 3(1/10) gallons fills 3(1/3)bins....or

3/10 gallons fills a whole bin...

Answer:

We can set this up as a proportion

(1/5) gallon / (2/3) bin = x gallons / 1 bin cross-multiply

1/5 = (2/3)x multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2

(3/2) (1/5) = x = 3/10 gallons fills the entire bin

Look at it this way......each 1/10 of a gallon fills 1/3 of the bin......so 3(1/10) gallons fills 3(1/3)bins....or

3/10 galons fills a whole bin....

How many integers between 100 and 1000 have both 15 and 18 as factors?
Zanzabum

The numbers 180, 270, 360, 450, 540, 630, 720, 810, and 900 are the integers between 100 and 1000 that have both 15 and 18 as a factor.

<h3>What is an integer?</h3>

it is defined as the whole number it can be a negative whole number or a positive whole number for an example: 2, 4, 1, -8, 0, etc.

To find the how many integers between 100 and 1000 have both 15 and 18 as factors.

We must calculate the LCM of 15 and 18

The LCM for 15 and 18 is 90

Now the 90's multiple:

90, 180, 270, 360, 450, 540, 630, 720, 810, 900, 1080

These numbers are factors of 15 and 18 also.

The number which lies between 100 and 1000 are:

180, 270, 360, 450, 540, 630, 720, 810, 900

Thus, the numbers 180, 270, 360, 450, 540, 630, 720, 810, and 900 are the integers between 100 and 1000 that have both 15 and 18 as a factor.

The times of the runners in a marathon are normally distributed, with a mean of 3 hours and 50 minutes and a standard deviation
serious [3.7K]

The probability that a randomly selected runner has a time less than or equal to 3 hours and 20 minutes is 0.16 or 16%.

<h3>What is normally distributed data?</h3>

Normally distributed data is the distribution of probability which is symmetric about the mean.

The mean of the data is the average value of the given data.

The standard deviation of the data is the half of the difference of the highest value and mean of the data set.

The times of the runners in a marathon are normally distributed, with

  • Mean of 3 hours and 50 minutes
  • Standard deviation of 30 minutes.

Refere the probabiliity table attached below. The probability of Z being inside the 1 Standard daviation of mean is 0.84.

The probability of runner selected with time less than or equal to 3 hours and 20 minutes,

P=1-0.84\\P=0.16

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected runner has a time less than or equal to 3 hours and 20 minutes is 0.16 or 16%.

The solution to the system is (3,4):<br> 3x – 2y = 1<br> 4y = 7+3x<br> Pizz help mee
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

(3,4) is the solution of both equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are :

3x – 2y = 1 ....(1)

4y = 7+3x

4y-3x = 7 .....(2)

Put x = 3 and y = 4 in equation (1).

3(3) – 2(4) = 9-8

= 1

So, (3,4) is the solution of the equation (1).

Again put x = 3 and y = 4 in equation (2).

4(4)-3(3) = 16-9

= 7

Hence, (3,4) is the solution of both equations.
