Answer:

Answer: 25 guests is 2.5 times more than 10

Multiply each order by 2.5

Chicken = 16 x 2.5 = 40

Lasagna = 7 x 2.5 = 17.5 , round to 18

Deli meat = 1.8 x 2.5 = 4.5, round to 5

Sliced cheese = 15 x 2.5 = 37.5, round to 38

Buns = 1 x 2.5 = 2.5, round to 3

Potato salad = 2 x 2.5 = 5

Students who party before an exam are twice as likely to fail as those who don't party (and presumably study). If 20% of the stu
True [87]

Answer:

The fraction of the students who failed to went partying = \frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total number of students = 100

No. of students partied are twice the no. of students who not partied.

⇒ No. of students partied = 2 × the no. of students who are not partied

No. of students partied before the exam = 20 % of total students

⇒ No. of students partied before the exam = \frac{20}{100} × 100

⇒ No. of students partied before the exam =  20

No. of students who not partied before the exam = \frac{20}{2} = 10

Thus the fraction of the students who failed to went partying = \frac{10}{100} = \frac{1}{10}

A rectangular yard is fenced in using 319 feet of custom fence Your friends really like the fence and decide to fence in their y
Vsevolod [243]

We have been given that a rectangular yard is fenced in using 319 feet of custom fence Your friends really like the fence and decide to fence in their yard using the same fence.  Their yard is similar but has a scale factor of 8/5 times the size of  yours.

We are asked to find the length of fence that your friends should purchase.

Since the size of your friend's yard is \frac{8}{5} times your yard, so your friend should purchase \frac{8}{5} times the 319 feet.

\text{Length of fence your friend should purchase}=\frac{8}{5}\times 319\text{ ft}

\text{Length of fence your friend should purchase}=8\times 63.8\text{ ft}

\text{Length of fence your friend should purchase}=510.4\text{ ft}

Upon rounding our answer to nearest foot, we will get:

\text{Length of fence your friend should purchase}\approx 510\text{ ft}

Therefore, your friends should purchase 510 feet of fence and option C is the correct choice.

Nadiya determines that there are no fractions equivalent to 2/10 with a denominator greater than 10, but less than 20, that have
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Yes, Nadiya is correct. By multiplying the numerator and denominator by 2, the first fraction equivalent to 2/10 is 4/20.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a fraction equivalent to 2/10, we need to multiply (or divide) the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero whole number.

As we need an equivalent fraction with a denominator greater than 10, we will need to multiply and not divide.

The first nonzero whole number we have is 1. If we multiply the numerator and denominator by 1, we get 2/10. Obviously, 2/10 is equivalent to 2/10 but the denominator is not greater than 10, so it doesn't help us.

The next whole number is 2. When we multiply the numerator and denominator by 2, we get 4/20. The denominator is not less than 20.

If we keep going, we will get 6/30, 8/40 and so on.  

Therefore, Nadiya is correct.

The correct answer is the first one.

Dalgliesh the detective fancies himself a shrewd judge of human nature. In careful tests, it has been discovered that he is righ
Alla [95]

Answer:

The probability that Jones is lying is 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will list out 2 different cases when the outcome is a lie

1.probability that Jones tells lies is = 0.6 and probability that dalgiliesh analyses it correctly is 0.8

So the probability that dagliesh correctly analyses that he is telling lies is 0.8*0.6=0.48

2.Probability that Jones tells truth is 0.4 and if dagliesh analyses it incorrectly (which has a probability of 0.2) the outcome(as analysed by dagiliesh) is a lie

So probability that dagliesh analyses Jones truth as a lie is 0.2*.0.4=0.08

Total probability of outcome being a lie is 0.48+0.08=0.56

But we need the probability of Jones actually saying a lie which is nothing but 0.48/0.56= 6/7
