Answer:

Yes, there's enough popcorn for eight 9-ounce bags

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Eight 9-ounce bags is equal to

8*9=72\ ounces

so

By proportion find the amount of popcorn made by each machine

Machine A

\frac{12.75}{3}=\frac{x}{10}\\ \\x=12.75*10/3\\ \\x=42.5\ ounces

Machine B

\frac{18}{4}=\frac{x}{10}\\ \\x=18*10/4\\ \\x=45\ ounces

so

42.5\ ounces+45\ ounces=87.5\ ounces

87.5\ ounces> 72\ ounces

therefore

There's enough popcorn for eight 9-ounce bags

A recipe for orange water says, “Mix 3 teaspoons of yellow water with 1 teaspoon red water.” For this recipe, we might say: “The
Hunter-Best [27]

Well, we know that 3:1 is one batch of orange water. We also know that there are 2 things to focus on.

1. Must write ratio for 2 batches of the recipe.

2. Must write ratio for 4 batches of the recipe.

To make this equation simple, double the ratio to find 2 batches because all it means is 2x more water.

3:1

x2

6:2

So, the ratio would be 6:2 to make 2 batches.

To make it easier again, we just multiply the ratio of 2 batches by 2 which would find the ratio for 4 batches.

6:2

x2

12:4

So that means, that it is 6:2 for 2 batches, and 12:4 for four batches.

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

P(bike) = 0.8

P(car) = 0.2

P(Late given car) = P(Late | car) = 0.05

P(Late given bike) = p(Late | bike) = 0.1

Probability that professor is late :

P(late) = [P(Late | car) * p(car)] + [p(Late | bike) * p(bike)]

P(late) = [0.05 * 0.2] + [0.1 * 0.8]

P(late) = 0.01 + 0.08

P(late) = 0.09
