At Gumdrops Galore candy store, Gina and her sister each fill a bag with gumdrops. Gina's bag of black gumdrops weighs 1 4 of a pound. Gina pays for both her gumdrops and her sister's red gumdrops. In all, Gina buys 3 8 of a pound of gumdrops. She wants to know how much her sister's red gumdrops weigh. Use an equation to find the weight of her sister's red gumdrops.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1/8 of a pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Gina's bag of gumdrops : 1/4 of a pound

Gina's + sister's bag of gumdrops : 3/8 of a pound

To find how much her sister's gumdrops weighed, you will have to subtract fractions.

Equation : 3/8 - 1/4 or 3/8 - 2/8

To subtract, you need to make sure the denominators are the same.

1 × 2

-------  =  2/8

4 × 2

Now, you can subtract. Subtract the numerators.

3/8 - 2/8 = 1/8

So, Gina's sister's red gumdrops weigh 1/8 of a pound.

Hope this helped !

Answer 2

Gina's sister's red gumdrops weigh 1/8 of a pound.

How to determine the weight of Gina's sister's red gumdrops

Let's use an equation to find the weight of Gina's sister's red gumdrops.

Let x be the weight of Gina's sister's red gumdrops in pounds.

According to the information given:

Gina's bag of black gumdrops weighs 1/4 pound.

Gina pays for both her gumdrops and her sister's red gumdrops, totaling 3/8 pound of gumdrops.

Weight of Gina's gumdrops (black gumdrops) + Weight of sister's gumdrops (red gumdrops) = Total weight of gumdrops purchased

1/4 + x = 3/8

Solve for x

x = 3/8 - 1/4

To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator, which is 8:

x = (3/8) - (2/8)

x = 1/8

Therefore, Gina's sister's red gumdrops weigh 1/8 of a pound.

Suppose that an experiment consists of flipping a coin 3 times and observing the resulting sequence of heads and tails. Find the probability of observing: exactly 3 tails.

Answers

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.125 = 12.5% probability of observing exactly 3 tails.

What is the binomial distribution formula?

The formula is:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.n is the number of trials.p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem, considering 3 tosses of a fair coin, the parameters are n = 3 and p = 0.5.

The probability of 3 tails is P(X = 3), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.125[/tex]

0.125 = 12.5% probability of observing exactly 3 tails.

C118,000 millimeters
D 1,780.000 millimeters
Emily chose B as the correct answer. How did she get that answer?

Answers

Emily must have thought that she needed to divide 1000 by 118 which would have given her 0.118 millimeters. But her answer is wrong because you need to multiply 1,000 millimeters by 118 meters to find how many millimeters are in 118. the correct answer would have been C: 118,000 millimeters

A truck carries a load of 50 boxes;some are 20kg boxes and the rest are 25kg boxes. if the total weight of all boxes is 1175 kg, how many of each type are there?​

Answers

given:

total number of boxes= 50

weight of all the boxes= 1175

some boxes= 25kg

and the rest= 20kg

to find:

how many of each type are there.

solution:

Let the number of the 20kg boxes = x

and the number of the 25kg boxes = (50-x)

so,

20×(x) + 25×(50-x)

= 1175

20x + 1250 - 25x

= 1175

- 5x = - 75 => x = (-75)/(-5)

= 15

(50–15)

= 35

therefore, 20 kg boxes are 15 and 25 kg boxes are 35.

speed 1S only r miles per hour.
Today the girls went for 20 miles trip, each girl was biking at her usual speed. How
long did Sophie wait for Rana after her own arrival to the finish?

Answers

Answer:

if Rama road  1 mph  Sophie waited  (20-4) = 16 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Sophie road 5 mph for 20 miles

distance = rate of speed times time traveled

d = st

20 =5t

t = 20/5 = 4 hours

Rana road r mph for 20 mile

d=rt

20=rt

t =20/r

Sophie waited  20/r - 4  hours

20/r -4 =  (20-4r)/r

if Rana road at   4 mph,  Sophie waited (20-4(4))/r =  4/4 = 1 hour

If Rana road at  3 mph,  Sophie waited (20-4(3))/3 = 8/3 = 2 hours 40 minutes

if Rama road at 2 mph  Sophie waited (20-4(2))/2 = 12/2 = 6 hours

if Rama road  1 mph  Sophie waited  (20-4) = 16 hours

Answer:

\sf (x+14)^2+(y+5)^2=149(x+14)2+(y+5)2=149

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard equation of a circle:  \sf (x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2(x−a)2+(y−b)2=r2

(where (a, b) is the center and r is the radius of the circle)

Substitute the given center (-14, -5) into the equation:

\sf \implies (x-(-14))^2+(y-(-5))^2=r^2⟹(x−(−14))2+(y−(−5))2=r2

\sf \implies (x+14)^2+(y+5)^2=r^2⟹(x+14)2+(y+5)2=r2

Now substitute the point (-7, 5) into the equation to find r²:

\sf \implies ((-7)+14)^2+(5+5)^2=r^2⟹((−7)+14)2+(5+5)2=r2

\sf \implies (7)^2+(10)^2=r^2⟹(7)2+(10)2=r2

\sf \implies 149=r^2⟹149=r2

Final equation:

\sf (x+14)^2+(y+5)^2=149(x+14)2+(y+5)2=149

Describe the domain in complete sentences.

Write the domain in inequality notation.

Answers

Answer:

  -∞ < x < -5 ∪ -5 < x < -3/2 ∪ -3/2 < x < ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of any polynomial is "all real numbers." The domain of any rational function excludes any values of the variable that result in the denominator being 0. The function is "undefined" there.

__

  [tex]v(x)=\dfrac{x^2-25}{2x^2+13x+15}=\dfrac{(x+5)(x-5)}{(x+5)(2x+3)}\qquad x\notin \{-5,-\dfrac{3}{2}\}[/tex]

The values x=-5 and x=-3/2 make the denominator of v(x) become 0, so those values are excluded from the domain of v(x). The function is "undefined" when its denominator is zero.

  -∞ < x < -5 ∪ -5 < x < -3/2 ∪ -3/2 < x < ∞

_____

Additional comment

The numerator and denominator factors (x+5) cancel each other, so there is no vertical asymptote at x=-5. Rather, the function has a "hole" there, where it is undefined. The limit as the function approaches x=-5 from either direction is v(x) = 10/7.
