Ok let's see.

The way to tackle this, is to first add up the ratio's.

So 4+8 = 12. Now this 12 is important as this is total number of shares (bunches) we need to allocate to 2 different flower colours.

Before we can know how much flowers = 4 and 8 bunches. We first need to work out how many flowers = 1 bunch.

It's simple.

108 (total number of flowers) ÷ 12 (bunches of flowers) = 9 flowers per bunch.

So if 1 bunch = 9 flowers.

4 : 8

= (4 bunches x 9 flowers) : (8 bunches x 9 flowers)

Which leads to...

36 purple : 72 black

Purple flowers: black flowers = 4:8 = 108

4 + 8 = 12

108 / 12 = 9. 

9 x 4 = 36. 

36 of the flowers are purple.

Answer:

Option A) independent variable – self-affirmations; dependent variable – self-esteem scores

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

"Wood and colleagues (2009) examined the value of self-affirmation. In a typical study, participants either engaged or did not engage in self-affirmations. Later, their current self-esteem was assessed."

Independent and Dependent Variable:

  • Dependent variable is the variable whose value depends on the independent variable.
  • Independent variable is the free variable.

For the given scenario, self esteem is assessed based on the fact that participants either engaged or did not engage in self-affirmations.

Thus, the dependent variable is self esteem and the independent variable is engagement in self affirmation.

Thus, the correct answer is

Option A) independent variable – self-affirmations; dependent variable – self-esteem scores

The dataset is given as:

Monday        34

Tuesday       29

Wednesday   32

Thursday        28

Friday             19

The variable of the above dataset is a not a categorical dataset.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you divide the total mulch (77 1/2) by the amount per bag (2 1/4). This will tell you how many bags of mulch you have.

The answer is 34.4444444 which is 34 full bags of mulch.

Now if one bag is $2.25, then what is 34 bags?

$2.25 multiplied by 34 is $76.5

Hope this helps your understanding
