The container that holds the water for the football team is 1/4 full. After pouring in 10 gallons of water, it is 2/3 full. How many gallons can the container hold?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x =24[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Amount of water 1/4x

Gallons added 10

Amount of water after addition 2/3x

Where x is a full container

Generally the parameters above gives the equation

  [tex]\frac{1}{4}x +10=\frac{2}{3}x[/tex]

Therefore

  [tex]\frac{1}{4}x -\frac{2}{3}x =-10[/tex]

[tex]-\frac{5}{12}x =-10[/tex]

[tex]x =\frac{-10}{-\frac{5}{12}}[/tex]

[tex]x =24[/tex]

Therefore the container can hold 24 gallons of water

If there's a three day rain forecast for the probability of rain , 70% Friday, 70% Saturday, 70% Sunday A) work out the probability that it will rain on all three days B) work out the probability that it will rain on exactly two consecutive days

Answers

Answer:

a) 34.3%

b) 49%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the probability of a sequence of events, we need to multiply each individual probability by the others in decimal form. Therefore, we need to turn these probabilities into decimal form by dividing them by 100 like so..

70% / 100 = 0.70

Now we multiply all of them together and multiply the product by 100 to get the percentage.

0.70 * 0.70 * 0.70 = 0.343

0.343 * 100 = 34.3%

34.3% is the probability of it raining on all three days. Now to find the probability of it raining on two consecutive days we do the same but multiply only 2 probabilities

0.70 * 0.70 = 0.49

0.49 * 100 = 49%

In a juggling competition, 7/ 20 of all the jugglers use balls only, 3/ 7 of all the jugglers use rings only, and the rest of jugglers use both balls and rings. If there are less than 200 jugglers in the competition, how many jugglers use both balls and rings?

Answers

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

Number who use balls only = 7 / 20

Number who use rings only = 3/7

Fraction who use both :

1 - (7/20 + 3/7)

1 - 0.7785714

= 0.2214285

If number of jugglers is less than 200

Number of jugglers who use both :

0.2214285 * 200

= 44.285714

Number of jugglers who use both should be about 44

Answer:

C, The marble is 3 times as likely to be black as it is to be white.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of a marble being drawn is:

number of marbles of that color/total number of marbles

Find total number of marbles

5+8+4+15= 35

So the probability of drawing:

white: 5/32

polka dot: 8/32

striped: 4/32

black: 15/32

The probability of drawing white, polka dot, or striped is obviously different, so A is wrong.

The probability of drawing every color but black is 5/32 + 8/32 + 4/32 = 17/32, which is more than the chance of drawing black, so B is wrong.

The probability of drawing black is 15/32, and that is 3 times larger than the probability of drawing white (5/32), so C is correct.

The probablility of drawing a polka dot is 8/32, which is not four times as large as stripe (4/32), so D is wrong.

slope = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

remember slope is just rise (change in y) over run (change in x) and since there's no change it has a zero slope, which applies to any horizontal line parallel to the x axis

(this is just me trying to explain slopes, separate from the question you put) if the right most point was 1 higher (5,7) instead of (5,6) then the slope would be 1/2 because to get from (5,7) to (3,6) you move up 1 and over 2

Shelly kelso's gross pay this month is $6,223. Her earnings to date for this year are $23,631. How much does her employer deduct from her paycheck this month for (a) social security and (b) medicare? 1. A. Find the social security amount

Answers

Answer:

Social Security = $385.83

Medicare = $90.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Social security rate in 2021 is 6.2% on your first $142,800 for the year. Shelly has not reached that threshold so her Social security tax is:

= 6.2% * 6,223

= $‭385.83

Medicare has no threshold and the rate in 2021 is 1.45%:

= 1.45% * 6,223

= $90.23
