First, we need to find the total fraction of her raisins she used:

1/4 + 3/8 = 2/8 + 3/8

She used 5/8 of her supply.

Knowing this:

5/8x = 5

We multiply by 8 (the LCD)

5x = 40

x = 8

Her supply was 8 pounds, and after making the food, she now has 3 pounds

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

1. If it is true that 60 percent of the trees in a forested region are classified as softwood, 0.015 is the probability of obtaining a population proportion greater than 0.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The historical information indicates that 60% of the forest trees are classified as softwood.

A botanist thinks that the proportion might be greater than 60%, so he tested his belief obtaining:

H₀: p = 0.60

H₁: p > 0.60

p-value: 0.015

You need to interpret this p-value. Little reminder:

The p-value is defined as the probability corresponding to the calculated statistic if possible under the null hypothesis. It represents the % of size n samples from a population with proportion p=p₀, which will produce a measure that provides evidence as (or stronger) than the current sample that p is not equal to p₀.

The correct answer is:

1. If it is true that 60 percent of the trees in a forested region are classified as softwood, 0.015 is the probability of obtaining a population proportion greater than 0.6.

I hope this helps!

Given: ΔABC, AC = BC, AB = 3 CD⊥ AB, CD = 3 Find: AC
viva [34]

Answer:

3\sqrt{5}/2

Step-by-step explanation:

As given, AC = BC, its an isosceles triangle.

Now, CD is perpendicular to AB, therefore AD = DB = 0.5AB = 3/2

Now take triangle ACD,

using Pythagoras theorem,

AC = \sqrt{AD^{2} + CD^{2}   }

AC = 3\sqrt{5}/2

The triangle shown below has an area of 121212 units^2 <br> 2<br> squared.<br> Find xxx.
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up an equation using the formula for the area of a triangle.

Hint #22 / 3

\begin{aligned} \text{Area of a triangle} &= \dfrac12 \cdot \text{base} \cdot \text{height}\\\\ 12&= \dfrac12 \cdot 6 \cdot x \\\\ 12&= 3x \\\\ \dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}&= \dfrac{3x}{\blueD{3}} ~~~~~~~\text{divide both sides by } {\blueD{ 3}}\\\\ \dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}&= \dfrac{\cancel{3}x}{\blueD{\cancel{3}}}\\\\ x &=\dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}\\\\ x &=4\end{aligned}

Considering that the lower intersection is a translation of the upper intersection what does this mean about the measures of the
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The lower intersection is a translation of the upper intersection. This means that corresponding angles overlap each other on translation. So, the corresponding angles are congruent.

A piece of ribbon is cut into two shorter pieces in the ratio 2.8:1.25. The divfference in the length of the two shorter pieces
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

210.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a piece of ribbon is cut into two shorter pieces in the ratio 2.8:1.25.

So that means length of the first smaller piece = 2.8x

and length of the second smaller piece = 1.25x

Then difference between their lengths = 2.8x-1.25x = 1.55x

Given that difference is equal to 80.6 centimeters then we get

1.55x=80.6

or x= 80.6/1.55

or x=52

then length of the original piece = 2.8x+1.25x

= 2.8*52+1.25*52

= 145.6+65

= 210.6 cm
