we know that

Each meter of ribbon cost \$0.46  

so

by proportion

Find the cost of 3.2 meters of ribbon

\frac{0.46}{1} \frac{\$}{meter} =\frac{x}{3.2} \frac{\$}{meter} \\ \\x=3.2*0.46 \\ \\x=\$1.472

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The ribbon cost \$1.472

Answer:  The cost of the ribbon is $1.472.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Bella bought 3.2 meters of ribbon to decorate her pencil case and each meter cost $0.46.

We are to find the cost of the ribbon.

We have

the cost of 1 meter of ribbon = $0.46.

So, the cost of 3.2 meters of the ribbon will be

\$(3.2\times 0.46)=\$1.472.

Thus, the total cost of the ribbon is $1.472.

Which oh the following are among the five basic postulates of Euclidean geometry
igomit [66]

1. A straight line segment can be drawn joining any two points.

2. Any straight line segment can be extended indefinitely in a straight line.

3. Given any straight line segment, a circle can be drawn having the segment as radius and one endpoint as center.

4. All right angles are congruent.

5. If two lines are drawn which intersect a third in such a way that the sum of the inner angles on one side is less than two right angles, then the two lines inevitably must intersect each other on that side if extended far enough. This postulate is equivalent to what is known as the parallel postulate.

A freight carrier charges $0.57 for a package weighing up to one ounce plus and additional $0.32 for each additional ounce or fr
kherson [118]

We have to write an equation that uses this info so we can find the cost to ship that package. However, the package weight is given to us in grams and we need it in ounces. So first thing we are going to do is convert that 224 g to ounces. Use the fact that 1 g = .035274 ounces to convert. 224g*\frac{.035274oz}{1g}. Do the multiplication and cancel out the label of grams and we have 7.901376 ounces. Ok. We know that it costs .57 to mail the package for the first ounce. We have almost 8 ounces. So no matter what, we are paying .57. For each additional ounce we are paying .32. The number of .32's we have to spend depends upon how much the package goes over the first ounce. For the first ounce we pay .57, then for the remaining 6.901376 ounces we pay .32 per ounce. Our equation looks like this: C(x) = .32(6.901376) + .57 and we need to solve for the cost, C(x). Doing the multiplication we find that it would cost $2.78 to ship that package.

A total of 70 tickets were sold for a concert and earn the organizers $804. If the cost of each ticket is either $10 or $12, how
crimeas [40]

Answer:

52 tickets cost $10 and 18 tickets cost $12

Step-by-step explanation:

10x+12y=804. (1)

x+y=70. (2)

From (2)

x=70-y

Substitute x=70-y into (1)

10x+12y=804

10(70-y)+12y=804

700-10y+12y=804

700+2y=804

2y=804-700

2y=104

y=104/2

y=52

Recall

x+y=70

x+52=70

x=70-52

x=18

52 tickets cost $10 and 18 tickets cost $12

What is the probability of drawing two yellow marbles if the first one is NOT placed back into the bag before the second draw? T
Xelga [282]
Break it down into two parts. First, what is the probability of drawing a blue marble on the first draw?Since there are 5 blue marbles and 10 total, the probability is 5⁄10, or 1/2. Now since we no longer have that blue marble, there are 4 blue marbles and 9 total. The chances of drawing a blue marble are 4/9. Therefore, the chance that both marbles drawn are blue is the chance that the first one is blue times the chance that the second one is blue. 1/2 * 4/9 = 4/18 = 2/9 Remember, math is always trying to trick you. It wants you to try and do the whole big problem at once, which can be difficult. Break it down into smaller problems, then use your answers to small parts to find the answer to the big question.
