annie has some sweets. teddy gives her some sweets and she now has 50% more . rosie gives her some sweets and she now has an extra 40% . annie now has 63 sweets. how many did she have originally

Answers

Using proportions, considering the amount she received from each person, it is found that Annie had 30 sweets originally.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, we have that:

Initially, she had n sweets.With the ones she got from Teddy, the amount became 1.5n.With the amount from Rosie, the amount became 1.4 x 1.5 x n.

The final amount was of 63, hence:

1.4 x 1.5 x n = 63

n = 63/(1.4 x 1.5)

n = 30.

Annie had 30 sweets originally.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

4 large folders     ( and 8 small folders....with $ 1 left over)

Step-by-step explanation:

x = small    y = large folders

x+y >= 12      x >= 12-y

3x + 5y <= 45

3 (12-y) + 5y <=45

36 -3y + 5y <= 45

    y <= 4.5               you cannot buy .5 of a large folder, so 4 large folders

Find the 24th term of the sequence:

11, 16, 21, . . .

Answers

Answer:

126

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the first two terms of this sequence is 5 (16 - 11 = 5). The difference between the second and third terms of this sequence is also 5 (21 - 16 = 5).

So, we can assume that the difference between each term in this sequence is 5. To get from the first term (11) to the second term (16) we had to add 5 once. (or, add 5  x 1 [time])

To get from the first term (11) to third (21), we had to add 5 twice

(or, add 5 x2)

*repeated addition, such as 5+5+5 is the same thing as multiplication. If we are adding 5 three times, we will get the same outcome as 5 x 3.

So, to get from the first term (11) to the 24th term, we will have to add 5 23 times, or 5 x 23

5 x 23 = 115

11 + 115 = 126

Making 126 the 24th term of the sequence

If set A contains four distinct numbers and set B contains seven distinct letters, how many elements are in (A U B)?​

There are 11 elements are in (A U B)

How to determine the number of elements?

The given parameters are:

n(A) = 4

n(B) = 7

The number of elements in (A U B) is calculated using:

n(A U B) = n(A) +n(B) - n(A U B)

Given that the sets have distincts elements, we have:

A beverage company produces cans of lemonade. According to the label a can contains a volume of 375mL of lemonade. A consumer group tested this claim by measuring the volume of lemonade in 2,500 cans. They found that the volume was normally distributed with a standard deviation of 5mL and a mean of 372mL.

If a can is chosen at random, find:

P (its volume is ≥382mL)

Answers

The probability that the volume of a can chosen at random is ≥382 is 0.47725

Normal distribution probability

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur. For the given question, we need to calculate the  z value as shown;

[tex]z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Given the following parameters

[tex]x=382mL\\\mu (mean)=372mL\\\sigma(S.D)=5mL[/tex]

Substitute

[tex]z=\dfrac{382-372}{5} \\z=\dfrac{10}{5}\\ z=2[/tex]

In order to calculate the probability that the volume of a can chosen at random is ≥382, we will look for (z≥2)

z≥2 according to probability table is equivalent to 0.47725

area to volume ratio.
b. Calculate the surface area, volume, and surface area to volume ratio for

I predict that the solid with the  greater surface area to volume ratio would be the cube.

The volume of the cube is 27in³

The surface area of the cube is

The ratio of surface area to volume for the cube is 2.

The volume of the sphere is 113.14 in³

The surface area of the sphere is 113.14 in²

The ratio of surface area to volume is 1.

What is the surface area and volume of each solid?

The volume of a cube = side length³

3³ = 27 in³

The surface area of a cube = 6a²

a = side length

6 x (3²) = 54 inches²

Ratio of surface area to volume = 54 / 27 = 2

The volume of the sphere= 4/3πr³

4/3 x 22/7 x 3³ = 113.14 in³

The surface area of the sphere = 4πr²

4 x 22/7 x 3² = 113.14 in²

Ratio of surface area to volume = 113.14 / 113.14 = 1

Answer:

  84 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure has a uniform horizontal cross section, so its area is the product of that cross section length and its vertical dimension.

__

  A = bh

  A = (6 cm)(14 cm) = 84 cm²

The area of the shape is 84 square centimeters.

_____

Additional comment

You could decompose the figure into a rectangle with base 6 and height 8, and a parallelogram with base 6 and height 14-8=6. The area formula is the same for each: A = bh, so the area of the composite figure is ...

  A = 6×8 +6×(14 -8)

  = 6×(8 +(14 -8))

  = 6×14 . . . . same as above.

The equation that can be solved using the system of equations is 4x^4 + 6x^3 - 11 = 3x^5 - 5x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x + 4

How to determine the equation?

The correct formats of the equations are:

y = 3x^5 - 5x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x + 4

y = 4x^4 + 6x^3 - 11

To determine the equation, we substitute 4x^4 + 6x^3 - 11 for y in the first equation.

So, we have:

4x^4 + 6x^3 - 11 = 3x^5 - 5x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x + 4

Hence, the equation that can be solved using the system of equations is 4x^4 + 6x^3 - 11 = 3x^5 - 5x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x + 4

B. This is the graph of a one-to-one function.
C. This is the graph of a function, but it is not one-to-one.
D. This is the graph of a linear function.

Answers

Answer: the answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi student, let me help you out! :)

. . . . . . .  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

We are asked to describe the graph shown in the attached picture.

[tex]\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}[/tex]

Please see below! ^^

Is the graph a function?

[tex]\boxed{\mathrm{Yes}}[/tex] ⇒ It passes the Vertical Line Test (Draw a vertical line through the graph; if the line touches the graph once (only once), then the graph is a function.

[tex]\boxed{\mathrm{No}}[/tex] ⇒ It doesn't pass the Vertical line test. The line touches the graph more than once.

[tex]\underline{\rule{50}{1}}[/tex]

Since the line touches the graph only once, this graph is a function, and Option A. is not right; we can cross it out.

One down, three to go! ^^

Is the graph a one-to-one function?

[tex]\boxed{\mathrm{Yes}}[/tex] ⇒ It passes the horizontal line test; it touches the graph only once.

[tex]\boxed{\mathrm{No}}[/tex] ⇒ It doesn't pass the test; the line touches the graph

[tex]\underline{\rule{50}{1}}[/tex]

Since a horizontal line touches the graph more than once, this function is not one-to-one.

Option B. isn't right either.

Two down, two to go! ^^

However, look what Option C. is. The graph we're given is indeed a function, and it's not one-to-one.

So I choose Option C.

Let's ensure our answer is correct by checking the last option:

Is the graph a linear function?

[tex]\boxed{\mathrm{Yes}}[/tex] ⇒ Its graph is a straight line.

[tex]\boxed{\mathrm{No}}[/tex] ⇒ Its graph isn't a straight line.

[tex]\underline{\rule{50}{1}}[/tex]

As we can see, the given graph is not a staight line; thus, Option D. is also wrong.

Thus, Option C. is the correct answer.

Hope it helps you out! :)
