Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of basket ball courts = 11

Total number of people playing basketball = 54

Number of players required for one on one game = 2

Number of players required for team game = 10

Inequality to represent number of one on one and team Games being played :

Let one on one games = a

Team games = b

Number of players required for each game * number of games

2a + 10b = 54 - - - (1)

a + b = 11 - - - (2)

a = 11 - b

2(11 - b) + 10b = 54

22 - 2b + 10b = 54

8b = 32

b = 4

a = 11 - b

a = 11 - 4

a = 7

Number of one on one games = 7

Number of Team games = 4

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

\frac 13

Step-by-step explanation:

All three shows she likes are Hamilton, Aladdin, and Thriller.

But she can watch only two shows among the three shown.

The possible combination of the shows she can watch are

(Hamilton and Aladdin), (Aladdin and Thriller) and (Hamilton and Thriller).

So, the total number of possible events (available options)= 3.

As we have to determine the probability of watching Aladdin and Thriller, so here Aladdin and Thriller is the favorable event.

So, the number of favorable event=1

Now,

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Total number of possible events}}{\text{Total number of favorable events}}

=\frac{1}{3}

Hence, the probability that she sees Aladdin and Thriller is \frac 1 3.

A Shampoo Problem: A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.25 of the bottle. How much shampoo is left? a. I
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

a) There is no a word problem for both expressions (m = 0.25\cdot 25.4 and m = 25.4-0.25), b) A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.75 of the bottle. How much shampoo is left? A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.25 fluid ounces of the bottle. How much shampoo is left?

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The shampoo problem is a word problem for:

(Final content) = (Initial content) - (Used content)

Then,

m = 25.4 - 0.25\cdot 25.4

Or:

m = 0.75\cdot 25.4

Hence, there is no a word problem for both expressions (m = 0.25\cdot 25.4 and m = 25.4-0.25).

b) The word problem for m = 0.25\cdot 25.4 is:

A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.75 of the bottle. How much shampoo is left?

The word problem for m = 25.4-0.25 is:

A bottle contains 25.4 fluid ounces of shampoo. Katie uses 0.25 fluid ounces of the bottle. How much shampoo is left?
