There could be 25 bags with 2 blueberry scones in each and 3 cranberry scones in each. This is because 25 is a factor of both amounts so you would divide each by 25. That leaves it with 2 blueberry scones and 3 cranberry scones.

Answer: There are 25 bags in all that he can fill.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of blueberry scones = 50

Number of cranberry scones = 75

We need to find the greatest number of bags he can fill so that  each bag should have an equal number of blueberry scones and an equal number of cranberry scones.

So, H.C.F. of 50 and 75 = 25

So, there are 25 bags that he can fill.

Number of blueberry scones in each bag would be

\dfrac{50}{25}=2

Number of cranberry scones in each bag would be

\dfrac{75}{25}=3

Hence, there are 25 bags in all that he can fill.

Which system of equations is inconsistent?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

The system of equation is inconsistent is;

2x+8y=6

5x+20y=2

Explanation:

* A system of equations is called an inconsistent system, if there is no solution because the lines are parallel.

* If a system has at least one solution, it is said to be consistent .

*A dependent system of equations is when the same line is written in two different forms so that there are infinite solutions.

(A)

2x+8y=6

5x+20y=2

This is inconsistent, because as shown below in the  graph of figure 1 that the lines do not intersect, so the graphs are parallel and there is no solution.

(B)

5x+4y=-14

3x+6y=6

this system of equation is Consistent because it has exactly one solution as shown below in the graph of Figure 2 and also it is independent.

(C)

x+2y=3

4x+6y=5

this system of equation is Consistent because it has exactly one solution as shown below in the graph of Figure 3.

(D)

3x-2y=2

6x-4y=4

this is a consistent system and has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent because  both equations represent the same line. as shown below in the graph of Figure-4.

Therefore, the only Option A system of equation is inconsistent.

Moussa's family took a road trip to the Grand Canyon. Moussa fell asleep after they
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

38%

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you need to find what 434/700 is because that is when she fell asleep. Divide each side by 2 to get 217/350. Use division to find the decimal. Once you are done with that, you get 0.62. You then subtract 0.62 from 1 because that is the amount of when she fell asleep. 1-0.62=0.38. 0.38 is also 38% so Moussa fell asleep for 38% of the trip.

Hopefully this helps you

For a standardized psychology examination intended for psychology majors, the historical data show that scores have a mean of 52
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

the probability that a sample of the 35 exams will have a mean score of 518 or more is <em> 0.934 </em>or<em> 93.4%</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is s z-test because we have been given a sample that is large   (greater than 30) and also a standard deviation. The z-test compares sample results and normal distributions. Therefore, the z-statistic is:

(520 - 518) / (180/√35)

= 0.0657

Therefore, the probability is:

P(X ≥ 0.0657) = 1 - P(X < 0.0657)

where

  • X is the value to be standardised

Thus,

P(X ≥ 0.0657) = 1 - (520 - 518) / (180/√35)

                       = 1 - 0.0657

                       = 0.934

Therefore,  the probability that a sample of the 35 exams will have a mean score of 518 or more is <em>0.934 or 93.4%</em>.

A cube has side length a. The side lengths are decreased to 50% of their original size. Write an expression in simplest form for
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

  V = a³/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the original cube is the cube of the side length:

  V = a³

When the side length is reduced to half its former value, the new volume is ...

  V = (a/2)³ = a³/2³

  V = a³/8 . . . . volume of the new cube

1. The graph shows the number of miles Peter's car traveled and the gallons of gas used.
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

  C.  d = 24g

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem boils down to determining the ratio between d and g. That is, for some equation ...

  d = k·g

we want to determine the value of k. Solving the equation for that value, we find ...

  k = d/g

So, we need only to read a point from the graph with sufficient accuracy to determine a good estimate for k.

  (gallons, miles) = (g, d) = (5, 120) is a suitable point

Then ...

  k = d/g = 120/5 = 24

The equation is d = 24g.
