Answer:

1.625 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

Since total weight of pears and apples is 6.5 kilograms and 3/4 of this weight is pears, the weight of the pears is

→ 6.5 x 3/4 = 4.875 kilograms

Since the weight of the pears is 4.875, we can subtract it from the total weight to find the weight of the apples

→ 6.5 - 4.875 = 1.625 kilograms

Answer:

1.625 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Total weight sold by the farmer =6.5 kilograms

If 3/4 of the weight is pears:

Weight proportion of apple=1-\frac{3}{4}= \frac{1}{4}

Therefore:

Weight of Apples sold at the market = \frac{1}{4} X 6.5 kg\\

=1.625 kg

The farmer sold 1.625 kilograms of apple.

An object is moving at a speed of 95 kilometers every 7.5 weeks. Express this speed in
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

<h2>5,936.76 feet/day</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to use to get the speed is expressed as speed = Distance/Time

Given parameters

Distance = 94km

Time = 7.5weeks

Since we are to express the answer in feet per day, we will convert the distance to feet and time to days.

For the distance:

Given the conversion

1 km = 3280.84 feet

95km = (95*3280.84)feet

95km = 311,679.8 feet

For the time:

If 1 week = 7 days

7.5weeks = (7.5 * 7)

7.5weeks = 52.5 days

Speed In ft/day =  311,679.8 feet/ 52.5 days

Speed in ft/day = 5,936.76 feet/day

<em>Hence the speed in feet per day is  5,936.76 feet/day</em>

Boris chooses three DIFFERENT numbers.
g100num [7]

Answer:

4, 5, 27.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us find our numbers using given information.

Factors of 20 are: 1,2,4,5,10 and 20.

Let us try by taking number 4 and 5.

36-(4+5)=36-9=27  

We can see that 3^{3} =27

Now let us find sum of these numbers.

4+5+27=36

Therefore, numbers chosen by Boris will be 4, 5 and 27 as these numbers satisfies our all conditions.

If e = 9 cm and f = 40 cm, what is the length of g?
rewona [7]

(9,40,41) is a Pythagorean Triple, farther down the list than teachers usually venture.

Answer: D. 41 cm

There's a subset of Pythagorean Triples where the long leg is one less than the hypotenuse,

a^2+b^2 = (b+1)^2

a^2 + b^2 = b^2 + 2b +1

a^2=2b+1

So we get one for every odd number, since the square of an odd number is odd and the square of an even number is even.

b = (a^2 - 1)/2

a=3, b=(3^2-1)/2=4, c=b+1=5

a=5, b=(5^2-1)/2 =12, c = 13

a=7, b=24, c=25

a=9, b=40, c=41

a=11, b=60, c=61

a=13, b=84, c=85

It's good to be able to recognize Pythagorean Triples when we see them.  

Otherwise we'd have to work the calculator:

√(9² + 40²) = √1681 = 41

The point guard of a basketball team has to make a decision about whether or not to shoot a three-point attempt or pass the ball
melamori03 [73]

the expected value for the 3 point shot = (3 * 0.30) + (0 * 0.70) = 0.90

the expected value for the 2 point shot = (2 * 0.48) + (0 * 0.52) = 0.96

the expected value for the 2 point shot is higher than the 3 point shot so he should pass the ball
