You are required to find the weight of each eggplant

The weight of each eggplant is 5/4 pounds

Let

Number of eggplant = 3

Total <em>Weight</em> of eggplant = 3 3/4 pounds

Weight of each eggplant = Total Weight of eggplant ÷ Number of eggplant

= 3 3/4 ÷ 3

= 15/4 ÷ 3

= 15/4 × 1/3

= (15 × 1) / (4 × 3)

= 15/12

= 5/4 pounds

Weight of each eggplant = <em>5/4 pounds</em>

Each vertical cross-section of the triangular prism shown below is an isosceles triangle.

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Height is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

4.24 x 4.24 x 6

Right triangle base = a + b + c

a^2 + 3^2 = 4.24^2

= a^2 + 9 = 17.98

We cross out b to subtract.

a^2 = 17.98 - 9

a^2 = 8.98

We then square √a^2 = √8.98

a = 2.996

We round up a = 3

We have found the height is 3

Three years ago Tom was twice as old as Jean, and in two years the sum of their ages will be 28 years. Find their present ages.

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Jean is 9 and Tom is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 years ago, Tom was 12 and Jean was 6, hence Tom was twice as old as Jean.

Since that was their age 3 years ago, they are currently 15 (Tom) and 9 (Jean).

Add 2 years to each of these ages, you get 17 and 11.

17 + 11 = 28

Rumor of the cancellation of final exams began to spread one day on a college campus with a population of 80 thousand students.S

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

P(t) is directly proportional to N and N'.

Where P is the increase in numbers of students who have heard the exam's cancellation rumor at any time t;

N is numbers of students who have heard the rumor of the exam's cancellation;

N' is numbers of students who have not heard the rumor of the exam's cancellation;

N' = (80 - N). Since the total number of students is 80;

K is the constant of the proportionality.

K is calculated to be 9/700

Therefore,

P(t) = KNN'

P(t) = (9/700) x N x (80 - N)

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of students is 80. For N, N' = 80 - N.

Initially, 1 thousand people heard the rumor.

Within/after a day, the increased in number of students who have heard the rumor is P = 10 - 1 = 9

P = 9 = K x 10x (80-10)

9 = K x 10 x 70 = 700K.

Divide both sides by 700,

9/700 = (700/700)K

K = 9/700

Subtitle K into the equation P(t) = KNN'

P(t) = (9/700) x N x N'

P(t) = (9/700) x N x (80 - N), where N' = 80 - N

Mathew rolls a number cube labeled with the numbers 1−6. He then flips a fair coin. What is the probability that he rolls a 4 an

kap26 [50]

Answer: 0.083

Step-by-step explanation:

Numbers on cube=6

faces on coin=2

Therefore, the total outcomes= $6\times2=12$

Now, the favorable outcome that he rolls a 4 and flips a head=1

The probability that he rolls a 4 and flips a head= $\frac{\text{favorable outcome}}{\text{total outcome}}$

⇒The probability that he rolls a 4 and flips a head= $\frac{1}{12}$ =0.083333\approx0.83.

Therefore, The probability that he rolls a 4 and flips a head=0.083
