During a nature walk, Mary identified
24 species of animals and plants.
Mary said
1/5
of the species she identified were
animals. Can this be correct? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

No, it cannot be correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 of 24 is 4.8.

This would mean that Mary would have identified 4.8 animals.

This is logically incorrect, because the number of animals has to be a full number. There cannot be any decimals, or parts of animals.

So, this cannot be correct.

Sushil was thinking of a number. Sushil divides by 7 then adds 7 to get an answer of 12. Form an equation

Answers

Answer:

The number is 35.

35 divided by 7 is 5, and 5 plus 7 is 12.

:)

Let's assume the number Sushil was thinking was 'x'

Now lets understand each part,

First, Sushil divides the number by 7, writing this in numbers will give,

[tex]\frac{x}{7}[/tex]

Sushil then adds 7 to digit, this will give

[tex]\frac{x}{7}+7[/tex]

Sushil tells that the answer for the following equation is 12, so

[tex]\frac{x}{7} + 7 = 12[/tex]

Therefore the equation Sushil made is [tex]\frac{x}{7} + 7 = 12[/tex]

A group of people were asked if they had run a red light in the last year where 140 responded "yes," and 208 responded "no." If a person is randomly chosen, find the probability that he/she has run a red light in the last year. Give your answer as a fraction or decimal.

Answers

Answer:

35/87

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability, we must find (total number of favorable outcomes)/ (total number of outcomes). We thus need to find the total number of outcomes. As people have only answered "yes" or "no", the total number of outcomes is 208+140 = 348.

The total number of favorable outcomes, or what we're looking for, is 140 (140 people responded that they had run a red light). Thus, our fraction is 140/348, or 35/87

What is mean by Multiplication?

To multiply means to add a number to itself a particular number of times. Multiplication can be viewed as a process of repeated addition.

We have to given that;

The table shows all the possible outcomes for rolling two six - sided number cubes.

Now, We know that;

For rolling one six - sided number cubes,

There is 6 possible outcomes.

Hence, For two six - sided number cubes.

Number of possible outcomes = 6 × 6

                                               = 36

Thus, There are 36 possible outcomes is shows in table for rolling two  six - sided number cubes.

Step-by-step explanation:

there is a property that i can't remember the name of that is dealing with angles across a flat line.

another way, is that 118+D=180, so D is 62

so that means D + C = 180, where D is 62 so C must be 118

Step-by-step explanation:

Objective: Circle Theorems

The arcs add up to 360 and they are in proportion so

[tex]3x + 3x + 4x + 5x = 360[/tex]

[tex]15x = 360[/tex]

[tex]x = 24[/tex]

So this means that Arc AB and BC measure is 72 each. Arc CD measure is 96 and Arc DA measures is 120.

Angle 1 measure is a inscribed angle of Arc CD.

So it measures

[tex] \frac{96}{2} = 48[/tex]

Angle 2 is a inscribed angle of Arc AB so it measures

[tex] \frac{72}{2} = 36[/tex]

Angle 3 is a inscribed angle of Arc DA.

[tex] \frac{120}{2} = 60[/tex]

Angle 4 is a inscribed angle of Arc BC so it measures

[tex] \frac{72}{2} = 36[/tex]

Angle 5 is formed by tangent line ED. Since D lies on the circumference, it also is tangent to point e so it also measures 90 degrees.

Angle 4 measures 32 so Angle 5 is it complement to Angle 4.

[tex]32 + x = 90[/tex]

[tex]x = 58[/tex]

Angle 6 is formed by two intersecting chrods

so it measures

[tex] \frac{1}{2} (120+ 72) = 96[/tex]
