Answer:

45%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's set up a fraction of how much money she spent for fruit out of the total amount of money she spent.

\frac{9}{20}

For a percentage, we need a fraction out of 100. To do this, we can multiply  the fraction by 5/5 (5*20=100). Notice we can only do this since 5/5 is equivalent to 1, so you are technically multiplying the fraction by 1.

\frac{9}{20}*\frac{5}{5}=\frac{45}{100}

A percentage is just the numerator of a number over 100 therefore it is equal to...

45%

Common household electric current is called alternating current because the current alternates direction within the wires. The v
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

n = 18 cycles

Step-by-step explanation:

To know how many times does the current oscillates in the given time, you take into account that the number of oscillation can be calculated by using the following expression:

n=ft         (1)

f: frequency of the oscillation of the current

t: time = 0.30s

The frequency is the number of cycles per second, that is, f = 60 cycles/s

You replace the values of f and t in the equation (1):

n=(60\frac{cycles}{s})(0.30s)=18\ cycles

In 0.30s the current oscillates 18 times

arlik [135]

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer is case 1st:

P(of white button) = 9/13

P(of black button) = 4/12

Case 2nd

P(of black button) = 4/13

P(of white button) = 9/12

Explanation

Given: A Question

To find: Probability

Solution :Case 1st

If carol takes the first button is white

P(of picking a white button) = 9/13

And

P(of picking a black button) = 4/12

Case 2nd

If carol takes the first button is black

So, P(of picking a black button) = 4/13

And P( of picking a white button) = 9/12
