Answer: 1 : 4 and 2 : 8

Step-by-step explanation: To find 2 different ratios that are equal to the ratio 3:12, we first rewrite the ratio 3:12 as the fraction 3/12. Notice that we can find 1 of our equal ratios by simply writing this fraction in lowest terms. if we divide both the numerator and denominator of 3/12 by their greatest common factor of 3, we get the equal ratio 1/4.

Now we can use 1/4 to find another equal ratio. If we multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/4 by 2, we get the equal ratio 2/8.

Finally, remember to write these ratios using the same form as the original problem. 1 : 4 and 2 : 8.

Answer:

The diameter of an extra large pizza from Gambino's Pizzeria is $44\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a circle (circular pizza ) is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$A=484\pi\ cm^{2}$

substitute in the formula and solve for the radius r

$484\pi=\pi r^{2}$

Simplify

$484=r^{2}$

$r=22\ cm$

Find the diameter

Remember that the diameter is two times the radius

$D=2(22)=44\ cm$

schepotkina [342]

Let number of caps =x

charge of one cap =$6

charge of x caps =6x

shipping fee =$25

total budget =$1000

let us make an inequality equation here,

Since amount cannot be greater than 1000 , so

25+6x ≤1000

6x≤975

x≤162.5

rounding off ,

x≤163

So she can buy maximum 163 caps

Answer:

0.0588 = 5.88% probability that a middle-aged man with diabetes is very active

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Has diabetes.

Event B: Is very active.

Probability of having diabetes:

To find this probability, we take in consideration that:

It also found that men who were very active (burning about 3,500 calories daily) were a fourth as likely to develop diabetes compared with men who were sedentary. Assume that one-fifth of all middle-aged men are very active, and the rest are classified as sedentary.

So the probability of developing diabetes is:

x of 4/5 = x of 0.8(not active)

x/4 = 0.25x of 1/5 = 0.2(very active). So

$P(A) = 0.8x + 0.25*0.2x = 0.85x$
